Region2 DVD Box Sets

[Kerim Yasar]

There's going to be a Teshigahara retrospective at
Brooklyn Academy of Music from late February to early
March (http://www.bam.org/film/series.aspx?id=62). 
Some of those films may eventually be released on DVD
by Criterion, although there's no word on dates and it
may be quite a while.
