I've already watched <i>The Last Days of Disco</i> which is my 2nd favorite at the moment and on Thursday, I'm going to watch <i>Damsels in Distress</i> while hopefully find the time to watch an episode of <i>Homicide</i> that Stillman directed as I will definitely the post the Auteurs piece on him next Friday.<br /><br />I really hope Criterion snags <i>Barcelona</i> because it does need a proper DVD/Blu-Ray release.thevoid99https://www.blogger.com/profile/03055459287396592446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21463545.post-83847891397499160692013-03-12T10:56:57.269-07:002013-03-12T10:56:57.269-07:00I also love Barcelona and considered it my favorit...I also love Barcelona and considered it my favorite Stillman film for a while. Metropolitan has eclipsed it slightly, but it's still really close. I love the atmosphere that he creates in the gorgeous city. Nichols and Eigeman work really well together, and there are so many funny moments. <br /><br />It's too bad that it's hard to find. Hopefully Criterion will follow their releases of Metropolitan and The Last Days of Disco and give this one the proper treatment. I have an out-of-print DVD copy but realize it isn't easy to find. <br /><br />I'm looking forward to the rest of your Stillman posts!Dan Heatonhttp://ptsnob.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21463545.post-70990694984738996452013-03-11T13:38:37.626-07:002013-03-11T13:38:37.626-07:00Well, I couldn't the film on DVD nor was it av...Well, I couldn't the film on DVD nor was it available on TV and I don't have any kind of online instant rental services since I don't have a lot of money at this point. I just did what I needed to do which was go through torrents to find a good transfer of the film. <br /><br />It's definitely one of his finest so far. I have one more film of his as well as a TV episode that he directed and the Auteurs piece on Stillman will definitely be available next Friday.thevoid99https://www.blogger.com/profile/03055459287396592446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21463545.post-14523924702328382152013-03-11T01:18:51.635-07:002013-03-11T01:18:51.635-07:00Barcelona has been on my watchlist for ages, the o...Barcelona has been on my watchlist for ages, the only Whit Stillman I haven't seen. I'm also curious because I've been to Barcelona on holiday. Difficult to find dvd in Europe(which is weird since the film is set in a European city). Wish we had amazon instant over here like you do in the US, so I could rent. Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09395044055566348346noreply@blogger.com
