Title Best
Knife in the Water (Nóz w Wodzie)R2UK

    Criterion recently released a two-disc package of this film in Region 1 with several interesting bonuses.

  • Newly restored high definition digital transfer supervised by Polanski.
  • Interview with Polanski and co-screenwriter Jerzey Skolimowski.
  • Publicity and production stills.
  • A new English subtitle stream, translated by Polanski.
  • Eight additional short films, identical to those that appear on the Region 2 Anchor Bay box release.

    Knife In The Water was released as part of a box set by Anchor Bay in Region 2 with the following extras.

  • Polish Dolby Digital 5.1 audio
  • Polish dts audio
  • Featurette - A Ticket To The West (30:00)
  • DVD-9 dual-layered formatting
  • Photo gallery
  • Biographies

    The Region 2 box contains the same three feature films as the Region 4 set and a fourth bonus disc of eight short films from varying points in Polanski's career.

    Reviews I have read speak very highly of the Anchor Bay transfer, and the addition of the above extras makes the Region 2 release the clear winner, although I would be very interested in viewing the Criterion transfer one day.
