Finding the Resnais short was a nice surprise after searching for it for a long time. You’re right, 4 camels is the next prize, although I think I have a translation of this that was handed out at PFA when they showed the un-subtitled version once. Will have to look for it and post it up. Yep, Corénnes seems to show up on eBay (which is where I found mine) once or twice every few years, but I’d be happy to scan the cover of mine. We should compare libraries to fill in the gaps…

PS to markertext: I’m looking to buy a used copy of Corénnes, but can’t find it anywhere online. If there’s any way you could scan an image of the cover, I’d really appreciate it. I’m going to have to go into my storage locker and find my old photocopy of the book…

I haven’t, unfortunately. I am excited by your mention of Toute la mémoire du monde – one of my abosolute favorites. And when is Si j’avais quatre dromedaires going to come out on DVD. Criterion should put these three together! Thanks for stopping by – my first real visitor/comment!

Have you seen this available anywhere w/English subtitles? Saw it once or twice at PFA many years ago. Surprised this one hasn’t made the somewhat suspect leap to eBay, eMule, or even something more legitimate like a short on an actual DVD (like Resnais’ own Toute la mémoire du monde showing up on the UK version of Marienbad).
