UHD Review Three Colors Trilogy – Criterion UHD Blu-ray Review (1 Viewer)

[t1g3r5fan]

Beginning his film career working on documentaries in his native Poland, director Krzysztof Kieslowski made his first non-documentary feature film debut in 1975 with the TV feature Personnel. However, he came onto the international radar with The Decalogue (Dekalog) (1988), a film cycle of 10 short films nominally based on the Ten Commandments and achieved greater international success with The Double Life of Veronique (1991). It was the commercial success of the latter that allowed Kieslowski to fund and make the crowning achievement of his cinematic career: a trilogy of films exploring the virtues symbolized by the colors of the flag of France. Previously released by Criterion in 2011 on both Blu-ray and DVD, the label has revisited the landmark trilogy for its UHD Blu-ray debut.

I think I will just hold on to my “solid” blu-rays as there is just too much to purchase these days especially after the most recent Criterion announcement.

The video encoding is poor on this release so I hope the upcoming UK UHD will be better.

Has anyone bought the UK UHD release?
What is better, that one or the Criterion?
I think I had seen some comparisons at the other forum where the Curzon one was better, but I can't find it right now.
