Cytat:Due to the numerous inquiries, we would like to give you a brief overview of our plans regarding the Andrzej Żuławski box: We are releasing the three films in a box entitled "Andrzej Żuławski: Early Works" in the form of a sturdy slipcase designed by the great Polish artist Marek Maciejczyk (Maciejczyk Art), in whose motif elements from all three films can be found. The individual films are in slim DigiPaks, which are each illustrated with the beautiful Polish poster motifs. An extensive booklet with texts by Marcus Stiglegger, Hendrik Otremba, Pelle Felsch and Daniel Artur Schindler, among others, will also be part of the box (not yet shown here on the draft).
More information on the audiovisual extras will follow once production is complete. We have already announced Kuba Mikurda's excellent documentary ESCAPE TO THE SILVER GLOBE, and we can also already reveal that an archive interview with Andrzej Żuławski will make it onto the disc for THIRD PART OF THE NIGHT.

The three films in question are:
THE SILVER PLANET aka NA SREBRNYM GLOBIE aka ON THE SILVER GLOBE (New 4K Restoration)
DER TEUFEL aka DIABEL aka THE DEVIL (new 2K restoration)
THE THIRD PART OF THE NIGHT aka TRZECIA CZESC NOCY aka THE THIRD PART OF THE NIGHT (new 2K restoration)

If you're wondering why DER TEUFEL and EIN DIRTEL DER NIGHT aren't announced as 4K restorations like elsewhere: That's because only 2K restorations exist for these two titles.

In addition, we will of course give each of the not exactly short films a separate Blu-ray with maximum bitrate to ensure perfect picture quality.

Cytat:Unfortunately, due to an issue with the master for THE DEVIL, we have had to reschedule the release date for ANDRZEJ ŻUŁAWSKI: THREE FILMS until 31 July 2023.

Whilst moving into the final stages of production before disc authoring, we submitted some of our new video extras to Andrzej Jaroszewicz for his approval (Jaroszewicz worked as cinematographer on a number of Żuławski’s films and was a camera operator on THE DEVIL). Upon reviewing footage from THE DEVIL, Jaroszewicz expressed some concerns.

THE DEVIL was originally restored back in 2015, but was rejected by Żuławski as the colour grading was incorrectly applied. After Żuławski died in 2016, Daniel Bird made great efforts to have the film graded correctly, and Andrzej Jaroszewicz was brought in to oversee this new grading, which was completed that year.

So, upon reviewing our extras, Jaroszewicz was surprised to see footage from THE DEVIL that used the older incorrect grading. After contacting our licensor, it seems that at some point in the past 7 years the version of the film approved by Jaroszewicz has gone missing and the older version is all that is on file. After assessing the situation and raising the issue with the Polish Society of Cinematographers, it is clear that the only solution is to go back to the original materials and re-do the grading, with Jaroszewicz again overseeing the project.

As such, we will not be able to make our originally planned release date. The rescheduled release date will therefore be 31 July 2023. We apologise for this delay.
