Cinema Science

Two of my favorite movies are being released as Criterion DVDs, Jean Luc Godard's Breathless and Terrence Malick's Days of Heaven. This is really great for each film, the single disc versions I have have their respective problems. For Breathless I have never seen the same translation twice, each version I have watched (VHS, cable, DVD) have all translated the film differently and it will be nice to have a definitive version. As for Days of Heaven, the disc I own really doesn't have the best transfer. There is noticeable scratches on the print and the whole thing doesn't pop like it should. This is really a problem for one of the best looking movies of all time. Here are the covers for the two.
