(No. 011) Ingmar Bergman - THE SEVENTH SEAL
(No. 140) Federico Fellini - 8 1/2
(No. 422) Bernardo Bertolucci - THE LAST EMPEROR
(No. 483) Roman Polanski - REPULSION
(No. 490) Wim Wenders - WINGS OF DESIRE

I've managed to get hold of another film so I've edited the list and added three new films onto it. I've also added an note concerning the packaging as shown below.

I am looking for others as well as the films listed on here so please feel free to offer other titles as although the listed titles are my preferred ones at the moment, I am looking to buy them all over time.

==========================

WANT
(No. 052) Akira Kurosawa - YOJIMBO
(No. 053) Akira Kurosawa - SANJURO
(No. 304) Nicolas Roeg - THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH

OWN
(No. 421) Jean-Luc Godard - PIERROT LE FOU

They need to be in excellent condition and preferably in the (Scanavo) plastic cases rather than the older digi-pak packaging. I've contacted Criterion and they will supply me with replacement Scanavo cases and covers so the digi-paks are acceptable.

Managed to get hold of another one so the list has been updated again.

OWN
(No. 422) Bernardo Bertolucci - THE LAST EMPEROR

I came across this whilst mooching the 'net. I daresay you're probably aware, but I thought I would post the link, just in case.

Thanks,

Wasn't aware of that to be honest, I have them on Twitter for news but don't really bother with Facebook so missed this. It's not exactly essential as it would have appeared on their site soon enough but I may have to have a look at their Facebook page.

New films aren't really the problem, it's more difficult trying to follow which are going out of print and when it's happening. I've managed to get all three blu-rays that are out of print now but as I bought them after they went out of print the price goes up quite sharply.

I ordered the final one of the three out of print films today which is the one I've added below.

OWN
(No. 304) Nicolas Roeg - THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH [01/07/10]

John,

Thanks, I had an email from Criterion earlier and opened a thread in the bargains forum!

==================================

I may as well update the list in this thread now that it's been bumped.

WANT
Nothing in particular at the moment as there's a half price sale on Criterion blu-rays as I noted above but please feel free to offer if you're looking to get rid of some of these titles.

OWN
(No. 010) Nicolas Roeg - WALKABOUT [16/07/10]
(No. 030) Fritz Lang - M [16/07/10]
(No. 052) Akira Kurosawa - YOJIMBO [16/07/10]
