The list has been updated. With the 5 WB, 5 Universal, Artisan's Force Of Evil, Image's Too Late For Tears & Suddenly, Home Vision's Time Without Pity and two Alpha titles, Circumstantial Evidence and The Green Glove, brings the total to 16 great Film Noir titles to be released between now and the end of July... Wow.

not bad.
i will just about always prefer the original key art, but at least these are decently done.
and i like that Brand line on the top.
simple, understated.
i hope i'll be seeing it on more releases before the year is out  |

Will this come out as a boxed set (ala the Warners noir set)?

I actually like the covers.
I'm holding out a little hope for Double Indemnity since the specs. haven't been announced. Maybe Universal will at least it get it partially right.

For what its worth, and without the benefit of any information on the title, I would steer very clear of Artisan's Force of Evil.
As their work has not yet made one DVD seemingly representative of the film, chances are slim to none that this release will be of acceptable quality.
