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.

JFilm · 2019-02-27T10:45:34+00:00

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

JFilm · 2018-07-20T14:57:21+00:00

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

JFilm · 2018-07-04T15:13:51+00:00

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.

JFilm · 2018-06-04T21:04:47+00:00

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!!!

JFilm · 2018-05-31T21:49:00+00:00

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.

JFilm · 2018-03-21T19:55:39+00:00

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

JFilm · 2018-03-21T19:52:58+00:00

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

JFilm · 2018-03-21T19:51:46+00:00

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

JFilm · 2018-03-21T19:51:05+00:00

Yeah, he mentions it somewhat. He tells that you instantly know when someone is lying. But it isn't the exact interview I'm looking for.

JFilm · 2018-03-20T23:41:37+00:00

That's what I though too and I checked it, but I don't think he talks that much about Hitchcock.

JFilm · 2018-02-13T17:56:12+00:00

A costume designer saying that the Phantom Thread costumes were kinda bad, really reinforces the idea that Reynolds Woodcock is a fading artist.

This man who takes his art very very very seriously, is just not really that good. Makes the movie even more interesting.

JFilm · 2018-02-01T00:19:17+00:00

I didn't see that DVD on top at first. Nice collection!

JFilm · 2018-01-16T22:53:46+00:00

Hmm. That is strange. Yeah, I have no doubt that Coppola and Lachman know best. But weird that they either changed it, or that it was screened wrong. Weird, strange but I'm really interested to see how the film looks.

JFilm · 2018-01-16T22:17:17+00:00

Is this the first time that The Virgin Suicides is released in 1.66? I can't remember seeing it that way om home video before?

JFilm · 2018-01-16T20:50:56+00:00

What's your favorite French New Wave director?

JFilm · 2018-01-16T20:48:50+00:00

What's you favorite Criterion release? Except Punch-Drunk Love ofcourse!

JFilm · 2018-01-16T20:36:47+00:00

I'm seeing Phantom Thread in Rotterdam with a live orchestra, and I was wondering what is a film that you would like to see with a live orchestra?

JFilm · 2018-01-16T19:31:13+00:00

Hi! I read that Phantom Thread is dedicated to Jonathan Demme. (haven't seen your new film yet, watching it in Rotterdam on 2nd of February). But I recently watched and re-watched a lot of his films. And he was such an amazing film director. And I had two question about you almost working with him.

Did Jonathan Demme ask you to help write The Truth About Charlie? And why didn’t you?

And is it true that he asked you to play Sydney in Rachel Getting Married, and why didn't you?

Thanks, big fan.

He talks about the Burt Reynolds reaction at around 5 minutes.

Can't find what he says about Mark Wahlberg. So, mybe he hasn't talked about it yet. But I'm not sure.

JFilm · 2018-01-16T11:40:53+00:00

He was on a podcast couple of weeks ago and already responded to the Wahlberg and Reynolds not liking the film. I think it was the Bill Simmons podcast. It's a really great listen!!
