Never seen the theatrical cut of Amadeus, loved the directors cut though. I wish they’d give us the option on future home media releases, I’d love to compare the two. 

Considering I just saw it about 10 years ago, I doubt if I’ve seen the theatrical version.  The version that’s available is excellent, but I’d love to compare as well.

When you've been working so many hours in front of a computer for so many days in a row that when you finish you don't want to see a screen or a gadget or keyboard anywhere near you.

 

 

 

And I'll still be like that until day 5. Without stop. No days, no evenings, no weekends. 

 

 

I hope you're well.

 

 

🤘

 

Back to normality.

 

I have a lot of rest to get, though, and a lot of sleep to catch up on. But the world keeps on rolling!

 

Have a nice day everyone!! 🖐️

Yesterday was a good day for those of us who love to buy movies in physical format in Spain.

 

The Spanish market is in a slump, most US majors no longer distribute here directly, but through local companies, as is the case in other countries; there are fewer and fewer releases, and the presence of the physical movie market in stores is decreasing.

 

However, something is moving, and the market is starting to show some nice positive signs.

 

A few months ago Divisa, a local distributor that is in charge of distributing Disney, Paramount and other editions, started to distribute 4K editions as well. Until recently, not even Avengers or StarWars was released here in 4K. 

 

And yesterday they announced that they are going to release in 4K titles that had been forgotten in Spain until now, like "The fifth element" or "Highlander", which is a good sign, it means that the market is responding well.

 

But my favorite news of yesterday is that Elástica Films, a small Spanish distributor that releases in theaters here many A24 films, and good independent and auteur films, is going to start releasing their own editions in physical format.

And they start with "Past lives", with a nice edition that they will sell only from their new online store.

If it does well, there will be more blu-ray editions. Let's hope so, they have a really appetizing catalog.

 

I was not expecting it, and this news has made me very happy. 😍
