Carlotta to Release Berlin Alexanderplatz in October

Readers with a smattering of French and a penchant for long and difficult films will be pleased to learn that French distributor Carlotta Films will be releasing RW Fassbinder’s Berlin Alexanderplatz as a 6 DVD set on October 3, 2007. Whether the 15-1/2 hour saga rises to the heights of Edgar Reitz’s monumental Heimat trilogy remains to be seen, but judging from a handful of online reviews, opinions are likely to be sharply divided. Criterion is to release an English-subtitled set in the fall. Earlier this year, Carlotta’s beautiful transfer of Kobayshi’s masterpiece The Condition of Man provided me with one of the highlights of my viewing experience and revealed gifts that I hadn’t suspected from seeing Kwaidan. If you’re in Paris on October 6 and 7, you can catch Berlin Alexanderplatz in its entirety at the Grand Rex.
