A bright beam of sunlight has just pierced through the rainclouds! After what seems like years of rumors, Criterion has announced
Bottle Rocket will finally be out in November! The fabulous set includes the original b&w short film from 1992, a making-of documentary and audio commentary with Wes Anderson and Owen Wilson. Criterion is also releasing it as part of their first series of Blu-Ray discs, along with
Chungking Express,
The Third Man,
The Last Emperor, and
The Man Who Fell To Earth.
I must pause for a moment to think about David Bowie in high definition...
Ok, back to
Bottle Rocket. Here's the cover:

Thank you, thank you, thank you Criterion. Now when can we expect
The Darjeeling Limited?
