M.I.A. for 2008: Part 3, It's the 80s, Do a Lot of Coke and Vote for Ronald Reagan

Here we are, the 1980s. We're past the 1990s, where a bunch of minor works have missed the DVD cut. Here, we have a bizarre mixture of classics and failures. Though we were missing Rosetta (due to the death of its US distributor, USA Films) and The Best Intentions as far as Palme d'Or winners go for the 90s, a number of favorites from the festival in the 80s still have yet to appear on DVD in the US: Palme d'Or winners Under the Sun of Satan, The Ballad of Narayama, and Yol; Best Director winners Time of the Gypsies and Sur; actor winners Dark Eyes [Marcello Mastroianni], Shy People [Barbara Hershey], Ménage [Michel Blanc], Rosa Luxemburg [Barbara Sukowa], Love Me Forever or Never [Fernanda Torres], Kiss of the Spider Woman [William Hurt], Cal [Helen Mirren], The Holy Innocents [Fernando Rabal, Alfredo Landa], Story of Piera [Hanna Schygulla], The Death of Mario Ricci [Gian Maria Volontè], Another Way [Jadwiga Jankowska], Tragedy of a Ridiculous Man [Ugo Tognazzi], Leap into the Void [Michel Piccoli, Anouk Aimée], and Interrogation [the lovely Krystyna Janda, who won in 1990 due to the film's ban in Poland]. And most of those actors are pretty damn famous. So, as always, let me know what I forgot... and, yes, the title of this blog does come from Mystery Science Theater 3000's commentary of the gem Hobgoblins.

M.I.A. for 2008: Part 2, the 1990s

In continuation, the overpopulated 1990s... You will notice that, unlike most earlier decades, New Yorker is not the most guilty party during this decade. Sorry, Universal, why don't you release a title older than two years once in a while?

UPDATE: I've included additional titles that I forgot in round 1. You can find those titles in italics.

UPDATE 2: Sorry for the disappearing images and now their shells that are still appearing on my page. This has been one of the most irritating posts I've ever made. Expect adjustments when the 1980s roll around.

M.I.A. for 2008: Part 1, the 2000s

Though it’s only mid-September, the year in DVDs is inching toward a close. Criterion announced their December releases the other day (Two-Lane Blacktop with James Taylor and Warren Oates and a repackaged Ingmar Bergman set which includes Wild Strawberries, Smiles of a Summer Night, The Seventh Seal, and The Virgin Spring), and with their lackluster announcement, I can pretty much cross off all of my new-to-DVD hopefuls for 2007. Not that Criterion has the final say on my list, but the month of November seems pretty locked in terms of releases, and I’m not going to hold my breath for December. So, I’ve created a more comprehensive list of titles still missing-in-action on Region 1 USA DVD. The list includes titles I’m aching for (keep in mind that a lot of these titles are Francocentric), some I’ve seen, some that need to be seen, and others that are simply notable and of no interest to me. Here’s hoping for 2008!

Key: NULL - No US Distributor / UNK - Unknown distributor / * (asterisk) - Films, to the best of my knowledge, unavailable anywhere on DVD [Meaning not in the UK, France, Italy, Germany, Japan, Hong Kong, Canada, etc.; though no asterisk does not guarantee that you can find it with English subtitles; I'm not that in depth]
