Announcements delayed until Thursday. But looks like we're getting Tales of Hoffman. Hopefully 4K.

[Peter McM]

Darn--and I wore my Criterion shirt to work today for luck.

[agnamaracs]

Monthly disappointment: no Pink Flamingos
Random Upgrade: The Testament of Dr. Mabuse
Random Breakaway: The Housemaid (from WCP #1)
Complete Longshot: Eclipse 47 will be the first Blu-Ray entry

(I also had Peeping Tom as this month's Canal return)

[Finch]

They also posted this today:



Blu-Ray on Thursday, please!

The 50th anniversary of Pink Flamingos is on Thursday.

So are those hints for a Man Bites Dog upgrade and To Catch a Thief... ?

[domino harvey]

Dog on toilet = Pink Flamingos?

[guyetgenevieve]

Would the Bark Obama one be American Factory? I know it’s not about healthcare but Obama produced it and it’s been over two years since it was initially announced

[black&huge]

Looks like June's gonna be a real... treat.

[Self]

The above image was posted by Janus Films and seems to be an image that existed before the post (not made specifically by Janus). Man Bites Dog might be the only actuality unless they found the perfect Easter egg image that is also a 750 piece jigsaw puzzle.

[guyetgenevieve]

Gotcha!! Thought for a second that we were getting hint drawings again

[senseabove]

A newsletter clue of such profound and widespread popularity, you can buy it framed at Home Depot.

Where did they post this?

[Finch]

Yeah, my bad, folks. It was on Janus's twitter feed (though it was from today), not Criterion's.

[Soothsayer]

Man Bites Dog
White Dog
Stray Dog
Stray Dogs
Beethoven
Pink Flamingos

all UHD

[Walter Kurtz]

Dogville, finally

[therewillbeblus]

Dogville, finally

Not sure if Criterion have made the time to un-cancel von Trier yet

[Walter Kurtz]

Maybe it will be their riposte to the Commies invading Ukraine because of the neo-Nazis supposedly lurking there

[Close The Door, Raymond]

The Ghost Goes West
The Hour of the Furnaces
Like Father, Like Son (2013)
Ma Rainey's Black Bottom
The Seventh Seal UHD

[rrenault]

Pink Flamingos in two aspect ratios
The Trial
The Double Life of Veronique UHD (DVD is no longer being sold)
Los Olvidados UHD [WCP restored it three years ago I am still waiting for a release]
Accattone

I'd be very surprised if Los Olvidados actually received a UHD release, but here's hoping. Also, I've noticed a few people predicting a Contempt UHD, but to the best of my knowledge it's never received a proper 4K restoration. I could be dead wrong though. I just can't recall a 4K master ever making the repertory rounds the way new restorations of those kinds of films generally do.

[felipe]

Aren't announcements on the 15th anymore?

[andyli]

Aren't announcements on the 15th anymore?

Announcements delayed until Thursday. But looks like we're getting Tales of Hoffman. Hopefully 4K.

[cdobbs]

Belfast
The Butcher Boy
The Brothers McMullen
The Matchmaker
The Irishman (4K)
The Boondock Saints (4K)

[sabbath]

Belfast
The Butcher Boy
The Brothers McMullen
The Matchmaker
The Irishman (4K)
The Boondock Saints (4K)

Universal released Belfast (2021) on Blu early this month.

[RSTooley]

It feels like a cheat to guess this late, but...

Dogville
Drive My Car
Inland Empire
Pink Flamingos
The Tales of Hoffman
Winchester '73

But surely they wouldn't release such a solid list of titles all at once.

[therewillbeblus]

Not to mention so many English-language ones
