CRITERION UPDATE: EARLY BERGMAN & JARMUSCH'S "NIGHT ON EARTH"



Some exciting new releases from the wonderful Criterion Collection. As the first installment in a new division of the collection, they will be releasing a box set of the early films of Ingmar Bergman. The Eclipse collection is a new subdivision of Criterion specializing in "lost, forgotten, or overshadowed classics in simple, affordable editions." Happy....happpy.....joy.....joy.....

Also, it was announced (in a rather roundabout way) in the latest Criterion newsletter that they will be releasing a special edition DVD of Jim Jarmusch's "Night On Earth". The Criterion release of "Down By Law" was one of their best in my opinion, so I'm really looking forward to this one.
