happy to see that There Was A Crooked Man will be one of the first releases- and I love the use of the vintage art and font styles for the jacket! (must be Bob Peak art, no? edit: on second thought, it's probably Amsel ). Defintely stands out in a see of three big head covers.
Yay! I'm happy The Arrangment is going to be released. I have a VHS copy that actually retains the anamorphic squeeze on some shots to fit all the actors in!
The following are now up on Amazon, with cover art, for pre-order:
Best Foot Forward - Dec 19 Angels in the Outfield (Amazon Exclusive) - Dec 19 Presenting Lily Mars (Amazon Exclusive) - Dec 19 Band of Angels - Jan 30 Up Periscope - Dec 19 Operation Crossbow - Dec 19 The Illustrated Man - Dec 19 Looker - Jan 30 Madame Curie - Jan 30 Gymkata - Jan 30 The Arrangement - Jan 30
Well, I have to say I'm quite disappointed. I was really hoping for "The Hand," "Get To Know Your Rabbit," and "You're A Big Boy Now." Stone, DePalma, and Coppola are some of my favorite directors and I've really been wanting to see these early features from them.
guess this means Crooked Man won't be one of the first titles out. bummer.
interesting that Looker is finally going to see a release after so many chats with people asking about it and the refrain always indicating it wasn't even on the consideration list. Love Albert Finny and Coburn, so I'll definitely be picking it up
Angels in the Outfield is now listed for January 30. There Was a Crooked Man... is now gone, but cover artwork is still there. Means they are still finalizing everything...
Get To Know Your Rabbit is one of the only De Palma films I haven't seen.
But also, I was really hoping that Bhowani Junction and Cimarron made the release list. I hope they were popular enough so that Warner Bros. release them in the medium term, but I doubt they will disclose exactly how many votes each film received.
