"now available on Blu-ray exclusively through A24's online shop. I think it wallows in way too many of the tropes of "Grief Horror," and is just cruel when it comes to most of them. Still, Sally Hawkins is incapable of delivering a bad performance, and A24 has transferred the movie well to home media, including a commentary, featurette with Hawkins and the brothers, and even postcards."
"Criterion continues to endeavor to expand their catalog beyond white, European, and usually male directors, making great progress this month with releases from Egypt, Taiwan, and from a female director in the American South. The first of those alphabetically is largely considered an essential film in Egyptian cinema and the neorealist movement of the '50s. Yousseh Chahine's 1958 noir is a stunner"
Bring Her Back is a follow-up to Talk to Me by Australian duo Danny and Michael Philippou and arrives on Blu-ray exclusively through A24's online shop. The film leans heavily on grief-horror tropes and features harsh, emotionally cruel elements, but includes a strong lead performance by Sally Hawkins. A24's home release includes a directors' commentary, a deleted scene, an in-depth making-of featurette, and six collectible postcards. Criterion issues a new 4K restoration of Yousseh Chahine's 1958 Cairo Station, an essential Egyptian neorealist noir about obsession and violence, accompanied by restored sound and supplemental materials.
