Irma Vep: This should be a great opportunity for those who wish to replace the dreadful Lorber R1 disc with a solid release (and could not benefit from the excellent French Assayas collection). UK street date is: March 31.

On checking the Play.com cover and the BBFC page, Second Sight will be releasing the DVD.

I just noticed from that play.com page that Assayas's latest film Boarding Gate is getting a UK release earlier in March (the 10th compared to Vep's 31st) - it doesn't say whether that is also a Second Sight release though (strangely there doesn't seem to be any BBFC info available on it).

I'm happy that this came out but I would definitely wait before purchasing it. Zeitgeist is restoring the film now for a theatrical re-release and I know for a fact that they already had Assayas come in to supervise their new DVD transfer. It's coming sometime later this year and it should be the definitive release.
