I'm pretty psyched about this one. It was one of the first Criterions I had and ended up owning almost every release thereafter.

No Apaches, or any of the extras included therein, and the booklet content is identical to that found in the old boxed set. I think I'll wait for a non-limited release of this film and chuck that disc into the box in place of the DVD.

I suspect Apaches was no longer available for licensing, as the BFI have since released it on Blu-ray themselves.
