  • Two Fassbinder DVDs From Olive Films

    Didn't hear word one about these being released, but here they are, due June 7th:





    I dig that Despair cover art...

    Agreed on that Despair cover - I've liked what little of his stuff I've seen...
    It's not going to suck itself...

      Same here. Glad to see more of his stuff coming out.

        I'm really tempted by DESPAIR but it seems quite expensive for a 'blind buy'. I like most of Fassbinder's films, and for me, WORLD ON A WIRE was one of the big discoveries of last year: that's an amazing piece of work.

        Has anyone seen DESPAIR yet? Is it worth its price?

          Is Despair the film where Bogarde goes a bit loopy with everyone around him and, finding some bloke who looks nothing like him, becomes convinced the guy is his doppleganger? If so, I may have to look into this one myself as that's one film that has burrowed its way into my subconscious ever since I saw it twenty odd years ago.

            Yep, that's the film, Mike. Hopefully, it burrowed its way into your subconscious for the right reasons - ie, that it's an effective film.

              I still haven't caught up with either of these but sometimes patience (laziness?) is a virtue because Despair is coming out on Blu-ray 11/1/11.

                On Amazon.com, the Blu-ray is the same price as the DVD too!
