There was a fair bit of excitable discussion at the time. Justin was so excitable he was in full on Will Wheaton mode. Is it a release you are up for, J? |

'Michael Powell: Early Works' (1932 - 1936) - Blu-ray pre-order available from the BFI Shop direct - UK$29.99 Release date: September 16 The Films:
"Throughout the 1930s, director Michael Powell (The Red Shoes, A Matter of Life and Death, Peeping Tom) honed his craft on a succession of modestly budgeted feature films produced under the United Kingdom's screen 'quota' system. Many of these titles remain lost but, those which survive, reveal a burgeoning talent that readily established Powell as one of British cinema's leading lights. This new 2-disc collection brings together five of those early films directed by Powell, newly remastered by the BFI National Archive, including murder mysteries, sensational thrillers and a comedy caper. Discover the formative works of a filmmaking icon, available on Blu-ray for the first time." Special features:
**FIRST PRESSING ONLY** Booklet featuring contributions from James Bell, Marc David Jacobs, Lawrence Napper, Pamela Hutchinson, Ian Christie, Bryony Dixon, Claire Smith, Josephine Botting and Kieron Webb

'Ikiru' (1952) - 2 disc Blu-ray pre-order available from the BFI Shop direct - UK$19.99 Release date: August 19 "Opening with a shot of an x-ray, showing the main character's stomach, Ikiru tells the tale of a dedicated, downtrodden civil servant who, diagnosed with terminal cancer, learns to change his dull, unfulfilled existence, and suddenly discovers a zest for life. Plunging first into self-pity, then a bout of hedonistic pleasure-seeking on the frenetic streets of post-war Tokyo, Watanabe ? the film's hero ? finds himself driven to give some meaning to his life, finally finding satisfaction through building a children's playground. Beautifully played by Takashi Shimura (who starred in 21 of Kurosawa's films), Ikiru is an intensely lyrical and moving film, and was one of Kurosawa's own favourites." Special features:
**FIRST PRESSING ONLY** Includes slipcase and illustrated booklet with a new essay on the film by Tony Rayns Other extras TBC
