In all sincerity, I wish Criterion, Kino or some other specialty/premium distributor would bundle "Burden" with "Fitzcarraldo"...and "Hearts of Darkness" with "Apocalypse Now."

I wasn't familiar with "Les demoiselles," though I'm very fond of "Young Girls of Rochefort." I'll check it out.

Yeah, I really wish the same, specially when the films don't receive equal recognition for each other, even tho I feel like they complement each other. Regarding, Les demoiselles, Varda shares a bunch of BTS footage of the film, there's interviews with some of the cast, Michel Legrand and the people of Rochefort.

If you're ever seeking a screenplay and can't readily locate it online, let me know; I've nearly two thousand on file, and mayhap whatever you might want.

A Whitby is any individual of a specfic (yet ungendered and pan-ethnic) phenotypic and temperamental rubric. Whitbies commonly excelled in beaux arts, entertainment and applied sciences from the fifteenth through the twentieth centuries, though their present prominence is much diminished by attrition.

At the beginning I agreed with all of them except Mary and the Witch's Flower and Kiki: Delivery Service, but after thinking about for a while I have to accept that it's a really good match. What do you think about Lady Snowblood 1 and 2/Kill Bill Vol. 1 and 2?
If any chambara deserves release in NA, it's Toho's, TV Asahi's and TV Tokyo's "Nemuri Kyoshiro" series. AnimEigo issued videocassettes and laserdiscs of Daiei's first six flicks, then three quadripartite DVD sets of the dozen in which Ichikawa starred under the title "Sleepy Eyes of Death."
However, the anteceding trilogy of the '50s, last two features by Daiei starring Hiroki Matsukata and numerous subsequent televised series and features aren't available outside Japan and Hong Kong. I'd love to see any of these as boxed sets.
I haven't seen those, I'll add them to my list!!! :o
