Criterions announced for april:

286 Divorce Italian Style Pietro Germi, 1961 (2 discs)
287
288 F for Fake Orson Welles, 1975 (2 discs)

that's one gorgeous cover for Germi's Divorce Italian Style.

no sign of the Wajda set. it was taken off the march list a couple of weeks ago but it's been widely speculated that it would be coming out in april as well. ooh, what's this -- amazon.ca has it slated for april 5. nice surprise.
... and they're now back up on Criterion's website :)

#287 might be Mr. Arkadin (aka Confidential Report), also from Welles.

amazon.ca is quickly looking like the place to beat for Criterion pre-orders (i've been going to DVDPacific since last summer but this might look like the place i'll go for new releases) - they've already got both films up for pre-order for a cool $34.63 each. snap 'em up.
