Just got my shipping notice from Orbit

[therewillbeblus]

Same, one minute before you posted. They must be sending them all out at the same time

[denti alligator]

I noticed Orbit is sold out. Likelihood of restock?

Yeah, there's usually a period between when preorders sell out and the product becomes unavailable before they restock

[domino harvey]

They actually cut off any orders once the preorder date approaches or if they sell out of their already preordered allotment. My guess is that it’ll be up for sale as soon as every order containing the preorder has shipped (so prob tomorrow or Monday)

Looks like those bought directly from Radiance are shipping too.

Mine’s already arrived from Atomic and I can confirm that it’s a thing of beauty, even acknowledging the lack of Back to School, it’s still probably going to place at the very top of my favorite releases of the year

[Noiretirc]

Is this region free?

Region B

I seriously need to just stop reading these Radiance threads.

Near Orouët, a new obsession. I wrote a concise Letterboxd review conveying my (perhaps incongruous) immediate thoughts toward Bill Forsyth's Gregory's Girl - to me it has the same heart, sunset and the hapless Gilbert is Gregory to a tee.

Bon.

If anybody wants Back to School/Rentrée des classes (1956), I will send you the complementary DVD set in pristine condition which includes it, if you pay the shipping, or feel free to trade me something instead. PM me if interested.

I'm holding onto the Potemkine set for that reason (despite the shelf space it takes up). Too bad Kino couldn't have
found a way to include it on their French New Wave shorts blu-ray.

Do you mean the Icarus Blu? Those films I think are all associated with Pierre Braunberger unlike the Rozier in question.

My hope is Criterion includes the short in question if they do an Adieu Philippine release. It would be a shame if it falls through the HD English friendly cracks.

[JSC]

Oh, sorry. Yes, my mistake. Don't know why I said Kino. Same here about Adieu Phillipine. Of course it's going to be
our luck that Criterion releases their own (pricey) box set which includes it.
