[Walter Kittel]

Tough choice to make on most anticipated release, but I'll have to go with... Wings of Desire

Best release to date... The Day The Earth Stood Still

There are some other choices that come to mind, but what puts this title over the top is the wonderful presentation which is simply stunning for a 52 year old film.
