Eoliano	post #1  on August 2, 2004 - 4:59 PM PDT   It's been almost two years since yulek's thread Movies that should be on DVD but aren't first appeared on these boards and I thought it might be time to see which films made it to DVD and which one's are lagging behind. And while you're at it, you can add your own most-wanted DVD titles to the list. 1900 Accattone Les Anges du Peche Angels With Dirty Faces Angel's Egg Arion Arizona Dream At Long Last Love The Bad Seed The Bad Sleep Well Bhaji on the Beach Bambi The Beautiful Blond of Bashful Bend Bedazzled (1967) Berlin Alexanderplatz Best Intentions Beyond Valley of Dolls Black Belt Jones Black Lizard The Black Swan Boudu Saved from Drowning The Boys in the Band Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia Brimstone (TV) Britannia Hospital The Burmese Harp Camp de Thiaroye Captain Blood Cast a Deadly Spell: The Celebration Celine and Julie Go Boating Cemetary Man Chan Is Missing Chelsea Girls Come Back to the Five and Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean The Confession The Conformist Christmas in July City of God Conquest The Crimson Pirate Cul-de-Sac Dark at the Top of the Stairs Dark Water Dead End Detective Story Le Deuxième Souffle The Diary of Juanita Castro Diary for My Children Distant Voices, Still lives Dodes'ka-den Double Indemnity Double Life of Veronique Downhill Racer Dream A Little Dream Drunken Angel Dust in the Wind The Earrings of Madame De...

Eoliano	post #8  on August 6, 2004 - 5:09 PM PDT   A number of Marlon Brando films have yet to arrive on DVD, many of them include his best work, others not, nevertheless, it's still a huge loss for avid Brando fans. The Appaloosa Bedtime Story Burn! aka Queimada The Fugitive Kind Desiree Dry White Season The Formula The Fugitive Kind The Missouri Breaks Mutiny on the Bounty The Nightcomers Reflections in a Golden Eye The Teahouse of the August Moon Viva Zapata!
Eoliano	post #9  on August 8, 2004 - 4:58 PM PDT   Good news! New York's Film Forum has just announced it will show a new uncut print of Gillo Pontecorvo's unforgettable Burn! starring Marlon Brando. With any luck, a new DVD will eventually follow.

oldkingcole	post #12  on August 11, 2004 - 8:44 PM PDT   A few more I'd like to see on DVD: A Pure Formality [dir: Guiseppe Tornatore; starring: Roman Polansky and Gerard Depardieu] Colossus: The Forbin Project [dir: Joseph Sargent] Ed And His Dead Mother [dir: Jonathan Wacks; starring: Steve Buscemi and Ned Beatty] Last Night [dir: Don McKellar] -- There is a DVD, but it's pan-and-scan only. We need an aspect-ratio-preserving widescreen release. Lonely Are The Brave [dir: David Miller; starring: Kirk Douglas] Painted Faces [dir: Alex Law; starring: Sammo Hung]
artifex	post #13  on August 15, 2004 - 3:01 AM PDT   I put Mondo down at some point. I should give up and try to get the VHS, now that they've dropped the price, I guess. Or just try to find it for rent, to see if the color effect was how I remembered it.
artifex	post #14  on August 16, 2004 - 1:54 PM PDT   It wasn't on anyone's list, but D.A.R.Y.L. will finally be out in October.
llibby	post #15  on August 16, 2004 - 7:42 PM PDT   some i'd like to see (most of them were on the previous lists) repulsion (not sure bout this one, greencine has it to rent, but i can't find it anywhere to buy) el topo (if only to see it, and not pay an unholy sum) delicatessan ruben & ed last life in the universe (seen it online as region free, but i am sort of waiting out to see if gets an official stateside release) electric dragon 80,000 volts probably others too.....
ALittlefield	post #16  on August 16, 2004 - 8:04 PM PDT   I'd like to see: THE FRESHMAN (the silent one with Harold Lloyd) NINOTCHKA MATI HARI(These two have Greta Garbo) and none of the Astaire-Rogers films are on DVD yet. Shocking!
eifert	post #17  on August 17, 2004 - 4:44 PM PDT   Point Blank with Lee Marvin Moonrise Born To Kill
fcobourn	post #18  on August 18, 2004 - 3:54 PM PDT   Would like to see The Butcher Boy on DVD.
sinisterguffaw	post #19  on August 18, 2004 - 4:10 PM PDT   > llibby listed (amongst other films of note): > --------------------------------- > ruben & ed > --------------------------------- It always does my heart good when I see other people mention Ruben and Ed. What a hilarious movie! The trouble is, R&E was already hard enough to find on VHS, and according to rumor, the filmmaker has no plans of making this film available again. But that was the rumor before the days of the DVD. On a completely pointless side note, the father of one of my best friends has a bit part in that movie.
underdog	post #20  on August 18, 2004 - 4:29 PM PDT   One film that was on many folks' DVD MIA list in the other thread was Fellini's LA DOLCE VITA. Well, guess what? LA DOLCE VITA streets on DVD September 21st. From Koch Lorber, it will be digitally remastered and restored. (Those of you in SF this week can see it at the Castro Theater, too) Great news.
