Maybe that's interesting for someone who still does not have the MOC version of "F for Fake": Don't buy it for 35 Sterling upwards on amazon.co.uk but rather go to the MOC website and grab it for 10.

Also remember to look at bestmediagroup on amazon.co.uk. Several newish titles are £7.99 there, but are not on Eureka's sale list, e.g. Fixed Bayonets. Postage only free on orders over £20, but since I've spotted 6 titles I want - 3 of them not on Eureka's sale list - that is not a problem for me. :)

You'd be mad not to get Youth of the Beast, Les Miserables, Funeral Parade of Roses and The Town That Dreaded Sundown at that price!

I have all four already unfortunately, so am only really considering I Clowns myself (though that's the Fellini title I least want...I'd much rather get Roma, City of Women and Satyricon before that one, personally).

Cheers. I've ordered The Adventures of Mark Twain (Blu-ray). I already have the others on BD (if available) or DVD.

Finally ordered Youth of the Beast. Picked up the Criterion when it was new over a decade ago. I have been waiting for more Suzuki upgrades from Criterion, but they don't seem to be coming. Saw this on 35mm a few months ago. The film is beautifully manic and insane. Makes you wish all movies were this high energy, stylish an wacky.

MoC Blu-ray of Pasolini's Uccellacci e uccellinii & Porcile is £9.18 in a Amazon Lightning Deal. Virtually every day this week there has been a newish Criterion, MoC or Arrow on offer, so worth checking every morning.

Black Friday Sale now on. Includes several down to £5, which I think is the lowest many have been.

I've already bought most of these - sadly, at much higher prices - but I didn't have Dragon Inn (£7.99). I also couldn't resist If.. at only £5, to complement my Criterion edition.

Too Late Blues at £5 was too hard to resist too - I'm surprisingly close to owning all of Cassavetes's films now, though I doubt I'll ever get Big Trouble and A Child Is Waiting.

Also got A New Leaf. She only directed four features - figures that the two that have been issued on BD are the two "lesser" ones.

Pssh, A New Leaf is second only to the Heartbreak Kid because she had the good fortune of making two masterpieces of comedy

Every time I see Adventures of Mark Twain in one of these sales, I linger on it for a moment and then run away squeamishly, kind of like Pee Wee with the snakes on every trip he makes into the burning pet store.

What's the deal with MoC these days? I placed an order back in October I never received and they don't respond to emails which is kind of annoying. It's really strange as they've always shipped fast and I've never had an issue.

I'm also really frustrated by the lack of customer service.

I ordered 2 copies of Les Miserables when they had the £5 sale. Only 1 copy arrived. I've tried emailing and tweeting; no response. It's not a lot of money but it's the principle of the thing.

Should I go so far as to contact my credit card company or is there another way to get their attention?

Did you see what I just posted right above yours? That's the "another way".

Thanks, I also have an issue with them with 4 discs ordered in the sale that have been dispatched but are yet to arrive and no answer from customer service, so have emailed Jacob

Death in the Garden is already up for pre-order at Amazon, with release date of June 19th.

Dual Format Edition. Artwork and specs will be up soon, presumably.
