Paul and Paula, that's cute, I totally missed the comic mileage value of that. My thinking was more along the lines of Rand's corporate identity work was overrated and overpriced and oh yeah, boooorrr[yawn]rrring... I will concede that I still have a copy of Thoughts on Design on the shelf more for its quaint antiquity than his, oh boy...thoughts on design.Jem wrote:What do you mean? oh... I get it Paula, Paul...yeah, hilarious?
I still agree with myself after having seen the big version. I want it to be a still of Edith Bouvier Beale sunning herself. You know, the part where she says, "I'm gonna get naked in just a minute." Either that, or her sitting in bed offering the Maylses a corn cob on a fork.Matt wrote:Unacceptable. Should have been a nice, posed portrait of Big Edie to mirror the iconic image of Little Edie on the cover of Grey Gardens. If that was unavailable, they could have at least done away with those--what are they, contact sheets?--at the top and bottom.Buttery Jeb wrote:It's all tiny-like, but here's an image of the cover for "The Beales of Grey Gardens."

I would e-mail them again, telling them that you already requested a replacement (and when) and that you haven't received it.Rich Malloy wrote:I requested mine on the day after the announcement was put up. I still haven't received it. Is anyone else in the same boat? Should I re-email my request?
I'm in the same boat and I live less than half an hour from Criterion's offices so there's obviously a batch of people still waiting.Rich Malloy wrote:Just wanted to check in about the Rohmer box replacements...

For what it's worth, I sent my email on September 14, and my box just arrived today. They probably wait to send them in large batches.Rich Malloy wrote:Just wanted to check in about the Rohmer box replacements...

Sorry, but you know I have to ask this. How's the packaging?tavernier wrote:This is one terrific set! Let's hope Criterion continues putting out more Rosi.
And for the record, disc 2's supplements are:
Neapolitan Diary - 89 min
New Rosi interview - 13 min
Film critic Tullio Kezitch interview - 5 min
Video discussion with Rosi, Raffaele La Capria, and Michel Ciment - 16 min
Jean-Pierre Gorin interview - 6 min.
That's substantial enough for me....
It's a slim case with the two discs overlapping on the same side. That's a first for Criterion, I think.Gigi M. wrote:Sorry, but you know I have to ask this. How's the packaging?
Exactly.SncDthMnky wrote:similar to Boccaccio 70' by Noshame if I'm reading it right...
