The Magnificent Cuckold, Radiance review: 'Dark psychological comedy about a foolish husband who sows his own misfortune by becoming convinced and increasingly obsessed by the thought his wife is unfaithful. It explores male-ego, homing in on the specific fear of ridicule tied to male-honour.'

Physical release incoming? One of my favourite Takashi Miike films. Also, hope it's at Sitges this year too...

The Boxer (1977) - New Trailer [Radiance #183]
From acclaimed director/playwriter Shuji Terayama (Throw Away Your Books, Rally in the Streets) comes a story of redemption. A former boxing champion (Bunta Sugawara, Japanese Godfather) trains a younger fighter everyone judges beyond hope (Kentaro Shimizu, Mermaid Legend). Combining the gritty 1970s setting of Toei Studios with Terayama's carinvalesque atmosphere, The Boxer is a sports movie like no other, and is available on Blu-ray for the first time in the world.
Mail Call 06/29/226: B&N Radiance Sale Haul
My ever-evolving Radiance Japan section as of today
(This isn’t where I actually keep them I just did this for the photo because I’m a dork)
My B&N Criterion & Radiance sale haul
I went to the NYC Union Square flagship store, mainly for Radiance titles, but sadly they really don’t have a lot in stock. PDL is a top 5 film for me, had to upgrade to 4K. Point Blank and Rapacious are blind buys and I must’ve been 10 years old last time I watched Stagecoach(26 years ago)
The Landlord Blu-Ray Will Not Play
I just purchased my first two Radiance Films (Cutter's Way and The Landlord). Cutter's Way plays just fine but my player will not recognize The Landlord. I live in the US but am relatively new to collecting physical releases of movies so I didn't think to check the region on these.
Both of them are Region B, so it would stand to reason they should either both play, or neither play. Does anyone else have any issues with The Landlord not playing?
My player is the Sony UBP-X700.
First time buyer question.
As the title says, I got the histoire(s) du cinema blu ray 10 days ago through the radiance films website. I was wondering how long does radiance usually take to ship orders internationally? Thanks in advance.
Is radiancefilmsstore.shop a real site?
Everything about it is telling me it's a scam.
Cutter’s Way Audio Issue?
UPDATE: For anyone who might run into this same issue…I determined it wasn’t an issue with the disc or player by plugging the UB820 into an old Dynex TV and the sound immediately worked. That meant it was a TV issue. I switched my LG TV to PCM instead of Bitstream and the sound suddenly worked. I’m not technical enough to know what that means yet, but at least I have it working for now.
Hoping this is just some stupid setup error on my part or something.
I just recently bought the Cutter’s Way 4K LE and the Messiah of Evil Blu from the B&N sale, my first two Radiance titles.
For some reason I’m not getting any audio from the master Cutter’s Way mono track. The commentary tracks seem to work fine, as does the isolated score track. I tried the Jeff Bridges 2022 intro version and I have perfect audio during the intro, but as soon as the movie starts I get silence. I tried the Blu-Ray disc and it’s doing the same exact thing.
I’m using a Panasonic DP-UB820. Is there some setting I don’t have checked or something? I’ve played hundreds of 4Ks and BRs with this setup and have never had this issue, including with the Messiah of Evil disc which works great. Is it possible both the 4K and BR discs are faulty, but only the master mono tracks? I’m at a loss.
Newest Blind Buy - Thoughts?
Grabbed this at B&N today during the 50% sale they have going on. It’s been on my radar for a while.
Anyone check this out yet?
