So true, apologies. I also missed purchasing the second set. Will remedy that during a sale.

D'oh! Aug 2020 was the first one.

 

[JPCinema]

I can give an advance hint that this looks beautiful. Wonderful film!

I'm curious if the French language version is better than the partly English dubbed version?

Better in what way? The DVD also had both the French and English versions. The theatrical version in U.K. and US, which I saw when first released, used the English language version which wasn’t entirely satisfactory due to the dubbing of the French and German actors.

 

[JPCinema]

Correct. I guess the dubbing is there no matter what language version

I've read somewhere some comments (don't remember where), that this is a better film than the Longest Yard and North Dallas forty.
Haven't seen it myself.

I've seen them all and I don't agree with that opinion. To each his own.

 

[ahollis]

The supporting cast in The Best of Times is worth the cost of buying this title.

 

[Kino Lorber Insider]

I've read somewhere some comments (don't remember where), that this is a better film than the Longest Yard and North Dallas forty.
Haven't seen it myself.

In my opinion, all three are top 10 football movies ever made, The Longest Yard being the best ever... NDF most likely number 2.

For those who have ESPN+, you should watch the Peyton's Places episode where Peyton Manning interviews Kurt Russell, Season 2, Episode 9. It's great, I wish we could include as an extra, but that's not possible.

If you like NFL, that show is a must-see and the Eli's Places is also really good, but his show is mostly about college football.

This is a pleasant surprise. Will this have both versions (118 minutes and 135 minutes) of the film?

Most likely, yes. But nothing has been confirmed yet.

 

[cadavra]

Most likely, yes. But nothing has been confirmed yet.

A delightful and sadly underrated film. I had no idea there was a longer version, but if it's included, this will be an exceedingly rare double-dip for me.

Coming to DVD and Blu-ray August 8th from Kino Lorber!

Scarlet
Directed by Pietro Marcello
Starring Juliette Jouan, Raphaël Thiéry, Noémie Lvovsky, Louis Garrel

Pre-order: https://www.kinolorber.com/product/scarlet-1

Pietro Marcello, one of contemporary cinema’s most versatile talents, follows up his dramatic breakthrough Martin Eden (2019) with this enchanting period fable. Shortly after World War I, veteran Raphaël (Raphaël Thiery) returns home from the frontlines to find himself a widower, and father to an infant daughter. Raised by her father in rural Normandy, the child Juliette (Juliette Jouan) grows into a lonely young woman who dreams of greater possibilities. She seeks refuge in the nearby woods, where she meets a witch who promises scarlet sails will one day take her away from her village. Reckoning with her future and swept away by a rakish young pilot (Louis Garrel) who literally falls from the sky, Juliette never stops believing in the witch’s prophecy. Tracing Juliette’s journey throughout the 20 years of great invention between the world wars, Scarlet delicately weaves together music and fantasy, history and folklore, realist drama and ethereal romance, to craft a timeless story of a young woman’s emancipation.

Special Features
*Making-of Documentary (17 minutes)
*Q&A with director Pietro Marcello (18 minutes, courtesy of Film at Lincoln Center and New York Film Festival)
*Theatrical Trailer
*Optional English subtitles

Hmmm Am I the only one who thinks the original comic book this was based on is a rip off of an old time tunnel episode?

Screen legend George C. Scott (Patton, The Day of the Dolphin) gives a strong, sensitive portrayal of a deeply religious Midwestern businessman whose daughter, while on a church-sponsored outing, runs away from home. He hires an oddball detective (Peter Boyle, The Brink’s Job), who learns that the daughter has been making cheap sex films. When the father realizes that he can no longer trust the detective, he decides to hunt for his daughter himself. Posing as a porno film producer casting a new movie, he gathers clues with ferocious determination. Finally, with the help of a prostitute (Season Hubley, Vice Squad), he locates his daughter. But is it too late? Paul Schrader, writer (Taxi Driver, Raging Bull) and director (Blue Collar, American Gigolo), presents a powerful, unflinching glimpse into the dark, bizarre world of the pornography industry. Featuring cinematography by Michael Chapman (Invasion of the Body Snatchers) and music by Jack Nitzsche (The Exorcist).
