Homevision. Upcoming R1 DVD Artwork and Specs. Chou Chou. Fukusaku Galore.

OK, so I like to see what artwork Homevision come up with: they're pretty much as good as any of their Criterion releases. Over at the site now, you can see large versions of All About Lilly Chou Chou, as well as the specs (anamorphic 16:9 digital transfer in 1.85:1, Shunji Iwai essay, making of documentary, pop video) and then Fukusaku's "Sympathy for The Underdog" (starring LW&C main main Tomisabaru Wakayama) which has another short interview with Fukusaku biographer Yamane Sadao, then finally (from my point of view) there's Fukusaku's "Fall Guy".

Click on the small artwork at each page i have linked into to get a larger version of each cover. The "Lilly Chou Chou" shown here to the left is lovely...

Oh my fucking god that All About Lilly Chou Chou looks goregous! Directly from the HD master too it sounds like - god I can't wait for this disc!

i bought the HK disc some time ago and have to admit that even that has some remarkable image quality in it : probably more the film than the disc, but i think this USA one will look astonishing.
