One of Antonioni's masterpieces is coming to Criterion on Blu-ray in June!
Great news. Great movie.
Update:
I watched the Blu-ray and, naturally, it looked great. What I found most interesting was my own memory of the film. I watched if for the first time in 1990 at the San Francisco film festival. Then I watched it again in 2000 and now ten years later makes for the third viewing. I had remembered the little cabin by the sea that they all have a party in. But I had forgotten the precision of the individual shots. In my view, this is Antonioni at his artistic peak. Every shot, every edit and every movement of the characters is deliberate and fits into the visual mosaic.
