Although I was a little disappointed to see that
Last Year at Marienbad wasn't on the list, Criterion named their April releases; and although they weren't the Nagisa Oshima films I would have liked to have seen put out, I do look forward to rewatching both
In the Realm of the Senses and
Empire of Passion (formerly known in the US as
In the Realm of Passion). Unfortunately, as Criterion doesn't put quotes on their DVD titles, In the Realm of the Sesnes will be without Madonna's glowing review: "It turns me on because it's real." In addition to those two, Stephen Frears'
The Hit, starring John Hurt, Terence Stamp, Tim Roth, Bill Hunter and Fernando Rey, and 23 short films from director Jean Painlevé.
New Yorker announced Danièle Huillet and Jean-Marie Straub's
Class Relations [
Klassenverhältnisse] for 17 March. MGM will be releasing three musicals on 7 April:
Goldwyn Follies (which is also available in their big musical box-set),
It's a Pleasure with Sonja Henie and Howard Hawks'
A Song Is Born.
Watchmaker Films, though Koch Vision, are releasing
Profit motive and the whispering wind and
Mississippi Chicken on 7 April. And finally, Kino will have Raphaël Nadjari's
Tehilim on 31 March.
