And I've heard from the grapevine that Criterion will release
The Exterminating Angel this February. Could be a rumor, but that's all I got.

It would make sense for them to release The Exterminating Angel considering their affinity for other Bunuel works, so I hope so. And these Herzog shorts look very interesting. His documentaries are almost always excellent, primarily because he doesn't bother to distill his own personal philosophies in a futile attempt at objectivity.
I think that's precisely why his documentaries are so great. Have you seen Land of Silence and Darkness?
There was a hint in the most recent Criterion e-newsletter that suggested they'd be putting this out.
It is exxxxxcellent.
That must have slipped my mind. I just heard from other sources that it'd be out in February. Thanks THOM.
