still waiting for a high quality HD transfer of Stalker...
- mratzloff 13y agoYes! I'm pretty surprised Criterion hasn't released one. By the way, just a few days ago Kino released a Blu-Ray edition of Nostalghia. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00GA9F2PI http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00GA9F2PI
- wahnfrieden 13y agoThere are also blurays of OFFRET, ZERKALO, RUBLEV, IVAN, SOLYARIS. Wow, only just realized STALKER is the only one missing. Oh, and the fantastic VOYAGE IN TIME! This one is often overlooked, but it's in fact directed by Tarkovsky and has some beautiful shots. It's a documentary of some of the processes in making NOSTALGHIA.
- wahnfrieden 13y agoYou'll have more luck keeping an eye out for 35mm screenings near you. I saw it on 35mm a few weeks ago, the picture and color was stunning. Much better than any bluray release would be :) I wonder why there's no bluray, it might be caught up in some licensing hell. There's not even a good US domestic DVD.
- wahnfrieden 13y agoMore concretely, if you live in/near NYC, follow http://screenslate.com http://screenslate.com - we get a wealth of repertory film screenings all the time. I've managed to see Andrei Rublev, The Mirror, Nostalgia (twice!), and Stalker all in 35mm over the past couple years.
