Our Christmas titles…
The Masters of Cinema Series has experienced its busiest two months of releases since its inception three years ago. October saw three new releases – Edvard Munch by Peter Watkins, and two René Laloux animations Les Maitres du temps and Gandahar.
November 19 sees a further three landmark releases, all with carefully crafted 80-page books. F. W. Murnau’s incredible Nosferatu (1921) has been restored for the best audio and visual experience since it was first released over 85 years ago. For full details click the link, or here.
Our second November release is the film F. W. Murnau made ten years later — and which was sadly to be his final film — Tabu (1931). Our new edition features Murnau’s pre-Paramount edit of the film, rarely seen anywhere until now. Containing natural nudity and titlecards censored on previously seen versions, this new package comes complete with a full-length audio commentary and a gorgeous 80-page book.
Finally, we’re extremely excited and honoured to welcome master Japanese filmmaker Kenji Mizoguchi to the Series, with the first of four twinpacks — Sansho Dayu / Gion Bayashi, also on November 19. Mizoguchi has always been a particular favourite of ours and these releases have been a major labour of love for us.
