  Films like 'Vertigo' are works of art. If there were not rights it'd be like walking into the Lourve and taking a Da Vinci for one's own museum.

  If you took a painting out of the Louvre it wouldn't be there any longer, so that comparison does not work. But if we were to go with the analogy anyway, then one could argue that "no rights" means DaVincis in everyone's living room.

Obviously because Universal owns the rights and would never give them up. That's how these things work, Asa. Criterion would clearly release Vertigo and any and all other Universal or Paramount Hitchcocks if they could.

  I hate rights problems. Why wouldn't they let the best company put out the best movies? it just seems stupid to me and I hope they loosen up soon, because every particle of Hitchcock's work is perfect, and should be seen in the best version

I think people are pretty content with the "Vertigo"' DVD release (just a Blu-ray will do), but underrated late gems like "Topaz" and "Frenzy" scream Criterion!

  Both those will be released by Universal next month in the 15 film box.
