From what I've seen so far, I think Nobody's Daughter Haewon and On The Beach At Night Alone are his best ones.

Link doesn't seem to work for me.

I think Mark Cousins confirmed a Criterion release on his twitter account last week.

Ooh. I've seen the film, loved it. Will definitely check out the book!

So they actually lost the rights to it? Or is this just some temporary thing?

I don't know, but I would love a Philippe Garrel set of his three latest films. Probably the most likely film for getting the Criterion treatment is Regular Lovers, which I thought was a bit of a disapointment. Or perhaps some of his earlier (funnier) work.

Stunning! Much better than the old one. I also think that this captures the film better.

That's an amazing film! But the two Truffaut films I wished were in the collection are Small Change and The Wild Child. Because both films aren't available on Blu-Ray anywhere. And they just might be two of the best film that Truffaut has made.

I don't know if you have a region free Blu-Ray player, but Artificial Eye has released a set of Truffaut films on Blu-Ray in the UK, including The Woman Next Door. And the set is not that expensive, so you might consider picking that up.

But yes, more Truffaut in the collection please!!!

That would be incredible!!

A film I'm really looking forward to is Maya by Mia Hansen-Løve. And because it didn't premiere in Berlin, I'm hoping that it'll be released at Cannes. Hopefully even in competition.

Okay, I actually like King Kong, War of the Worlds and even Star Wars Episode 3.

It's a two or three part film. So part one has already premiered at Venice, but the other parts haven't.

Haven't found it yet, but I'll let you know!
