I can’t wait for SAVE THE TIGER. It’ll be an upgrade from the DVD quality Blu Ray from Oz. Hopefully it won’t be bare bones and have some good bonus features.

For me it will be an upgrade from my DVD quality DVD from 2005!

August 12 looks great to me overall. In addition to Save the Tiger I'm interested in the Sylvia Sidney double feature (one of my favorite classic era actresses) and in Gatsby and Huckleberry Finn as well.

I'll be getting that next Film Noir set as well as Exclusive, Huckleberry Finn and The Farmer's Daughter. All pleasant surprises.

Keanu Reeves (The Matrix), Bridget Fonda (A Simple Plan) and recording artist Chris Isaak (The Silence of the Lambs) star in this motion picture spectacular from world-renowned filmmaker Bernardo Bertolucci (The Conformist, The Last Emperor). In a big American city, a boy and his parents (Fonda and Isaak) discover a story about a prince named Siddhartha (Reeves) in a land of miracles. But the miracle becomes real when Tibetan monks appear, searching for their reincarnated leader—who they believe has been reborn in the boy. Suddenly, their worlds meet, leading the Americans on an extraordinary spiritual adventure! A sumptuous and epic story, Little Buddha reunited director Bertolucci with his award-winning collaborators on The Last Emperor: cinematographer Vittorio Storaro (Apocalypse Now), production and costume designer James Acheson (Dangerous Liaisons), and music composer Ryuichi Sakamoto (Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence). This Special Edition contains the 140-minute International Cut, which preserves Bertolucci’s original artistic vision.
