For me WESTERN, a blind buy, and ABOUT ELLY. The pq reviews are not great for ABOUT ELLY but I love the film and Farhadi is one of my favorites.

Excellent! I've been patiently waiting for news of this one. According to the blu-ray.com announcement it will only have a trailer and an essay, which is a real shame. Ross was interesting and eloquent at the post-screening Q&A I attended, and the discussion definitely enhanced my appreciation, so I'm sad they don't at least have an interview with him.

Agreed, though if it's any consolation, quite a number of his multitudinous (they really went all out for that Oscar nom) Q&As are freely available online.

CG's BRD of Hong's black and white The Day After looks quite good -- but has only minimal extras.

We do try to get what we can for Hong Blu-rays - He does not create anything or keep anything supplemental.

I understand that -- He spends all his time making his movies so no time to spend on helping make extras. ;-)

Just glad that this looked so great and had excellent subtitles/

Fantastic news! The more Oliveira the better. Is Visit or Memories and Confessions one that you have looked into? I'm not sure if it is being kept for theatrical engagements only or not

Is The Turin Horse out of print? I ordered the blu-ray from Deep Discount when it was on backorder but now link for blu-ray redirects to the DVD.

It is not out of print. Not sure why that happened.

Thanks. Maybe they pulled it to prevent more orders while they fulfill backlog.

Just wanted to give an update on The Wild Pear Tree Blu-ray.

It is still coming, but you may or may not have heard that we made the call last minute to include a six and a half hour documentary produced by the film team on the making of The Wild Pear Tree. We felt the doc was really worth the delay and contained inside the doc there are fully produced deleted scenes.

Because of this, the release has now become a double BD-50 set and we don't have a firm date but we are looking early to mid October. We are keeping the price the same.

Will post again when it is closer to shipping.

Their annual 50%-off "Cyber Weekend" sale has begun. It includes the latest Ceylan and Hong, as well as Oliveira's final (feature) film.

Haven't seen much discussion of it on here, but I thought Hotel by the River was outstanding. Packs quite the emotional wallop imo.

Loved Grass as well, really looking forward to CG's eventual disc. (Was a little surprised Hotel came to disc first; didn't Grass precede it theatrically?)

Finally got a chance to watch Hotel by the River -- and second dadaistnun's assessment. Visually lovely with a surprisingly melancholy tone (though On the Beach at Night Alone night hinted at deeper sadness than "melancholy").

Shocker of the year: CG has acquired Hong's latest.

Also, very belated response to dadaistnun: Hotel by the River opened in NYC in February 2019; Grass opened three months later in April. But Grass had its festival premiere ahead of Hotel.
