Janus Films

It was a pivotal moment for you in your career when the movie came out in 1995, and now it's having a comeback.

It is being released again in theaters with Janus Films-

Mm-hmm

...

There's sort of a jammy noise rock quality to some of their music, but I, I-- They're-- It's a Gen Z band, and they're pretty popular with that age group.

He shot a Cameron Winter concert at Carnegie Hall last December, and there was, you know, there was talk about this, I think I saw it in Pitchfork or something early on, but I didn't know it was actually gonna play out in this way, which is that now there's a 35-millimeter print that's gonna do a roadshow release from Criterion and Janus Films of this sold-out concert, and that's gonna start in New York on November 20th.

I do wonder, there's always a secret screening at New York Film Festival.

A lot of people are saying it could be Artificial, the Luca Guadagnino movie, but I could see this also showing up at New York Film Festival.

Uh, watched our next film, The Sword of Doom, on The Criterion Channel.

Uh, two films, uh, that we're talking about both, uh, see that beautiful Janus Films logo at the start.

Oh, yeah.

We love to see it.

Oh, and there are releases, but they're not the director's cut, and it's a lot of stuff chopped out, and it's not, it's not good.

But Janus Films, which is the very...

You know, they're in league with Criterion and, and, um, all those sort of erudite brands.

Janus Films is putting out a new 4K of Gandahar, and you're like, "Oh, where? Where can I stream it?" The answer is nowhere.

It's in theaters.

Dig this.

But this is, like...

Y- you know you're in for a real ride when you get that Criterion Collection and Janus Films, uh, like right at the start of a movie.

You feel like you're either gonna watch, like, a Lars von Trier movie, or in this case, Down by Law.

Yes.

I've talked about a couple others that I've seen in theaters since.

Um, I think based on how well they've done with Cure, Janus Films seems to be very happy to just, like, write him checks and pick up any-

Mm-hmm

... of his material.

But I'm going to very soon.

The Samurai and the Prisoner, his new released movie, which, uh, Janus Films has a hold of, and so it'll come out on Criterion Channel at some point and probably get, uh, one of those Janus contemporaries releases or whatever.

Mm-hmm.

Uh, but is playing at the Lightbox here and, and should be playing in cinemas around North America.
