And I'm proud to own them!! Two of my absolute favorite films. If Second Run ever do release a Blu I hope they consider Tropical Malady.

Apichatpong Weerasethakul on this week's edition of Radio 4's The Film Programme

Mike Dawson at Left Field Cinema considers Tropical Malady to be a World Cinema Masterpiece:

Excited for this. However, just out of insterest, does this rule it out of the upcoming MoC WCF Box sets?

Second Run doesn't necessarily own the video rights.

REMINDER!
Genius Thai filmmaker/artist Apichatpong Weerasethakul + MYSTERIOUS OBJECT AT NOON screening at ICA Cinema, London this Tuesday, 8 April at 8.30pm. Only a few tickets left !!

If you're in London on Tuesday October 13, you can sign up for a FREE masterclass by Apichatpong Weerasethakul taking place at the gorgeous Regent Street Cinema, hosted by University of Westminster's Centre for Research and Education in Arts and Media (CREAM). The event is free of charge but reservation on Eventbrite is essential. One ticket per person.

Is there a consensus as to whether this is preferable to the Strand R1 DVD?

The Strand is vastly inferior when it comes to the presentation of the movie itself: a PAL-to-NTSC transfer with stereo sound (no 5.1 track) and yellow subtitles instead of the more sensible white used on the Second Run. But the commentary with Apichatpong and Chuck Stephens is exclusive to the Strand and a good argument for getting both.
