I organize a monthly screening of Italian films for a local Italian cultural group. I'm having a hard time finding something relatively modern (10 years old or younger), available on region 1 dvd, and while not a "family film" per se, at least not something unsuitable for a young person to be in...
From rightstuf.com: DVD Features: English 5.1 Audio, Japanese 5.1 Audio with English subtitles, Commentary by Japanese Voice Cast, and Previews Date Available - Sep 13 2005 Anyone know if there will be a box for this?
- If the film is considered in the public domain, is if legal to screen in any format? For instance an old Buster Keaton film. It's considered public domain but is ok for me to screen the Kino dvd? Do I need to pay Kino for the rights to do this? - What is the best online source for the most...
If there is another thread concerning this, please post it. I searched and came up with nothing. I'm wondering about what 3D films are available on DVD. I'm not looking for IMAX type things, but movies. Also, how good is the 3d effect when using a digial projector onto a screen? Also, do the...
Still waiting for DvdSoon to ship this. Any early comments? Pretty box? I have a feeling I done right in selling my old set when this was announced. Best television show ever. ShaunS
Just got the double dvd set of Renoir and Kurosawa's versions of The Lower Depths. I watched the Renoir version last night and noticed a lot of scenes had an annoying flicker (or maybe shudder is a better term). Almost as though the print was loose. My dvd player went bellow up the other day...
from Criterion's Website:
Only one I've seen is The Most Dangerous Game, which was campy and fun. Probably would never pick it up individualy, but I do enjoy my Criterion Box Sets. Comments on the other films appreciated. ShaunS
Thought I'd tap our collective knowledge here... Anyone have, or point me in the direction of, a list of modern silent films, preferably within the last 20 years? Preferably R1 DVDs, but VHS would be fine as well. Thanks in advance, ShaunS
I'm considering a blind purchase of The Battleship Potemkin and I was curious as to the quality of the dvds out there in R1. Are any SEs in the works? My reason for this is I just watched the silent film Sunrise the other day. It has peaked my interest in picking up some other silent films...
As the previous thread on this was closed (let's keep 19th century wars out it this time guys!) I thought I'd see if anyone has an update as to when Disney will be releasing some more of Miyazaki films, and which I can expect. I've turned everyone I know onto the genius of Miyazaki through...
Take a trip over to dvdbeaverand take a look at their Upcoming DVD Covers section. Don't see any specs. Haven't seen these three as of yet (but love the many others I have seen and own). Not sure if I like the covers too much, and the box looks a little plain. But 3 Criterion Bergmans at once...
Any reviews of the 30th Anniversery Ziggy Stardust concert DVD recently re-released? I've heard the concert itself is just so-so, but the new sound mix is great and video is a notch up from the previous release. I'm a big fan of his 70s stuff, but would only pick it up if the concert itself is...
I'm on the hunt for a subwoofer and have found a second hand one, but I'm unsure if it is going to work with my system. Keep in mind that I live in an apartment so I don't need anything too powerfull. I already have the 5 speakers. Here is an image of the front and rear of the subwoofer...
Any reviews of the recent re-release of this live concert dvd? I have his "Best Of" DVD, and I'm a huge fan of this time period (I watched next to none of disc 2 of this set). Is the concert itself quality? How about the audio/video? ShaunS
Posted on the Criterion Home Page . I like that they are doing these box sets (Kurosawa, Truffaut) as I don't have too many Criterions. It's an easy (and cheaper) way for me to catch up. I haven't seen any of these Hitchcock films yet. Same goes for the Truffaut films. Someone want...
Over the past few months I have exhausted the video stores in my city renting Zhang Yimou films. It's been awhile since I've found a new director to collect on DVD and I think Yimou is going to be it. As I've only seen his films on VHS, I thought I'd ask about his films on DVD. Searching...
I'm planning on filling in some gaps of my Criterion collection and was wondering what your experiences have been with DVD Planet. As far as I can tell, they tend to have the best prices with nice discounts. I am in Canada, so any comments from Canucks on shipping charges and time it took to...
I faintly remember watching this show during its original run (I was pretty young) and loved it. I tried looking up info on it but most websites I found were either down or long outdated. Any word on a possible DVD release? Any interest in a possible DVD release?!
Greetings, Short time listener, first time poster... Just finished watching My Dinner with Andre (VHS) for the first time. Jumped onto Amazon to see if it existed in DVD format but was disappointed to see it was only as a bare bones / full screen version. While watching this film I...
