Bought the standard DVD version of this in the last BN sale, I won't bat an eye to upgrade it to Blu. First Melville film I had ever watched, since then have added all the Criterion Melville's to my collection.

I don't know why several people are down on the Maryanne storyline. I find her fascinating, and she scares the crap out of me! If I was Sam I sure as hell wouldn't want that chasing me down. I'm just having a hard time figuring out why...

Comcast just sent me a flyer with the new upcoming channel line-up. They are adding a ton of HD movie channels, but alas no TCM HD.
