    In honor of Pi Day, A24 is releasing Darren Aronofsky's Classic in 4K

    Darren Aronofsky's Pi is available to order on the A24 website. 3.14K UHD on this particular title should be nirvana for lovers of film grain! Assuming they haven't scrubbed it clean...;) Not sure if this is a pre-order or if it's now available.

    Michael Mann's Heat 4K only $3.99 on Amazon

    I was still waffling when it was $7.99, but today, when I saw it for $3.99, finally had to bite. EDIT: Must have been a flash sale: the price has gone back up.

    Remember when "Widescreen" movies were actually, you know, wider than regular movies?

    I attended a recent screening of Skyfall and became nostalgic for the tinge of excitement I used to feel when, at the beginning of a 2.35 movie, the curtains on the sides of the screen would open up to reveal a wider screen. This has been replaced in today's multiplexes by a curtain that...

    "The Piano" Blu Ray - Missing subtitles?

    I've seen Jane Campion's 1993 movie, The Piano many times, including theatrically, on LaserDisc and on DVD. In all cases, the Maori dialogue and much of Holly Hunter's sign language was subtitled. On the new Blu Ray version, however, none of these scenes are subtitled. There are two...

    "Ultimate Hitchcock Collection" Public Domain release

    Has anyone seen this release? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/ima...0933843&sr=8-5 Is it worth the $22.00? Giving allowances for the fact that it's a public domain release and quality will not be the best, is it at least watchable?

    I'm feeling masochistic: Which Uwe Boll film should I watch?

    I have yet to experience a Uwe Boll film but his reputation as one of the worst film-makers ever is giving me the nagging urge to check one out. Is there one of his movies that stands out below the rest? What is the penultimate Uwe Boll movie that I should add to my Netflix queue?

    Vertigo: Ridiculously complicated or complicatedly ridiculous? *SPOILERS*

    If you haven't seen Vertigo, this is your official spoiler warning. I've seen 'Vertigo' several times, most recently last night and, for some reason, this was the first time it ever hit me just how absurdly complicated Gavin Elster's plan to murder his wife was. To succeed, his plan...
