Any word on how the UK edition of Les Diabolique compares to the CC? It's on sale over at sendit.com and I want to revisit this one.

Review of the UK disc HERE

Comparison of the Criterion and the French edition HERE

Seeing as Criterion remastered The Wages of Fear as a 2-disc, I have been waiting to see what they do with Les Diaboliques, but their current transfer is the best so far.

I see that Arrow Films in the UK have just released Les Diaboliques. It features an audio commentary by Professor Susan Hayward of the University of Oxford. No online reviews yet. A Beaver comparison would be great.

An email from Arrow:
It's a brand new transfer, the subtitles are removeable and there is a audio commentary by Susan Hayward: Professor of Film studies at the University of Exeter.

I haven't seen it yet, but think I may be purchasing.
