The National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC is presenting a retrospective of David Lean’s earliest films. The retrospective runs December 19 - 28th. For more information visit their site: http://www.nga.gov/programs/film/davidlean.shtm

Shhhhh. Though it has not been officially announced, I got word from a reliable source that Criterion is working on a DVD release for Hobson’s Choice. Specs sound pretty impressive though no date has been announced. Let’s hope that the remainder of Lean’s films make it onto DVD (and Blu-ray too.)
