Question:
Having just watched Don't Look Now and Man Who Fell To Earth again after a long, long time I fancy seeing some of his other flicks again, alas not many are out on dvd (I know Walkabout has a nice Criterion release which I've actually owned and traded on twice, lol)......
Also trying to find Peter Greenaway's The Falls which I haven't seen in ages as well as The Quiet Earth........guess I'll have to settle for VHS, depressing innit :oh-hum:
Don't tell anyone I told you, but I wouldn't buy <I>The Falls</I> on VHS just yet...
(is there a smiley for tapping the side of your nose conspiratorially?)
As for the other important Roegs, Warner own <I>Performance</I> and Carlton own <I>Bad Timing</I>, and I've no idea who owns <I>Eureka</I> - and I don't know of any plans for any of them.
Actually I heard that Rank's (and therefore Carlton's) rights to <i>Bad Timing</i> had expired, so if that's true then no-one owns it.
<i>Eureka</i> is a United Artists film, so presumably MGM own it (presuming rights haven't expired).
I'd like to see <i>Insignificance</i> on DVD as well, but I've no idea who owns that. (Palace were the UK distributor, but they're long since defunct.)
I have heard rumours that a <i>Performance</i> DVD is in the works - but no more than rumours, and second-hand ones at that.
According to Carlton's <A HREF="http://www.carltonint.co.uk/filmcat/">website</A>, they still own it. (For various professional reasons, I'm rather hoping they do!)
