Personally, I'm mainly looking forward to that Frank exhibit at MoMA in September...

Should've mentioned this earlier, but they've been screening all of Frank's films, which either have been restored or remastered. He used various formats, so obviously not everything's going to look stunning - for example, they just premiered a "new digital remaster [of It’s Real (C’est vrai)] by The Museum of Modern Art" and while it probably looks as good as it ever has and ever will, it's still standard-definition video circa 1990. Really great though, it's kind of trippy if you've spent god knows how many hours around that particular area on the LES (Broadway-Lafayette by the Angelika, Anthology, etc.)

I think Cocksucker Blues was the lone title to not have a restoration, but even having it screen in public is always a treat

Does that mean there's a slim chance the restrictions can be loosened enough that we can get a legit home disc release of it or is there something blocking that from happening?
