The Eclipse line, according to its mission statement, will feature "lost, forgotten or overshadowed films, in simple, affordable editions." Each set will contain three to five films, sans bonus features, made from the best available masters, but not getting a full Criterion restoration. Retail pricing, on average, will be less than $15 a disc. Regular Criterion Collection DVDs start at about $30.
"The goal is to make these films available, to make sure that Criterion's own work style doesn't contribute to the continuing unavailability of these films," Criterion Collection president Peter Becker said. "Once our producers and restoration crew get started on a Criterion edition, the project takes on a life of its own. Months later, with a little luck, we'll have something really special to show for it, but at that rate we can't make a dent in the number of important unreleased films that we'd like people to be able to see."
The Eclipse line launches March 27 with the five-disc set "Early Bergman," which includes a quintet of psychological character studies from the career of legendary Swedish filmmaker Ingmar Bergman a decade before "The Seventh Seal" and "Wild Strawberries" earned him a reputation as one of the greatest directors ever. Among them: "Torment," a 1944 coming-of-age drama that was Bergman's first produced screenplay, and 1949's "Thirst," a complex film about the human condition told in flashbacks. Also included in "Early Bergman" are "Crisis" (1946), "Port of Call" (1948) and "To Joy" (1949).
The Harrison Ford starrer -- which resurrects the franchise after a nearly 20-year hiatus -- will go up against Warner Bros. tentpole Speed Racer, which bows a day after Indy 4.
David Koepp (Spider-Man) penned the script for the fourth installment, which reteams George Lucas, Spielberg and Ford. LucasFilms is producing Indy 4 for Par. Pic is set to begin lensing by June. Storyline is being kept under tight wraps.
In their first directing effort since The Matrix trilogy, Larry and Andy Wachowski will helm Speed Racer, based on the Japanese cartoon series of the same name by anime pioneer Tatsuo Yoshida.
