the lack of features has always been a bit of a disappointment, particularly in regards to the lack of an audio commentary. As there should be a blu ray version eventually maybe that'll finally happen. as for buying the film over and over, i've managed to get through 2 region 2 copies (scratched the...

That is brilliant, there is an commerical on the TV in England at the moment for some perfume that is definately LiT inspired. It even has Just like Honey as the background music!

newcastle, uk. i heard that you can put private screenings on at movie theatres, they'll get the print in of whatever film you'll want to watch. there's not enough of us here in the uk, but maybe for you u.s. guys perhaps?

Thanks! these days I use a canon eos 40d, fairly hefty price tag but the quality it produces is more than worth it. The photos you mention were produced using HDR, which involves processing multiple exposures to give a high range of tone. I'm considering putting the kiyumizadera one on allposter or ...
