Kiju Yoshida's 1966 movie "Woman In The Lake" is about to be released on DVD for the first time outside of Japan in France as part of a series of complete Yoshida DVDs. Now where's Criterion ?
Yoshida's "Eros Plus Massacre" was one of my favorite discoveries of 2007 - yeah I know I'm way behind. Here's a clip from it
