I've been wanting to see these for a long time. Supposedly Cremaster 3 is getting released soon...and then maybe they'll put them all out on DVD or something. I saw an exhibit of art from the film last time I was at the Guggenheim; it looks gorgeous.

yea i saw it at sundance -- it is some of the most gorgeous cinematography i've ever seen. its playing here in chicago right now. the word on the street is that Palm Pictures is releasing the whole CREMASTER CYCLE in a box set dvd.

I just watched the trailer for the first time; wow, that looks truly amazing. Even better, the website says the whole cycle will be playing in Dallas in June. Huzzah!

I know that Cremaster 3 was shot in Hi-Def; it looks fantastic.

I was misreading it for a while and I thought it said the Creamster Cycle and I'm like, "where's the goddamn man on this one?"

the cremaster is actually the muscle that raises and lowers your testicles.

I know this has been playing very selectively, but anyone know if this is coming to DVD?

Cool cool. Any idea when?

cowboykurtis · April 06, 2003, 11:56:51 PM

im not sure -- probably after cremaster 3 gets out of the theaters.

i'm really glad to hear this. the only viewings of matthew barney work i've been able to gather is his large book that's an overview of the cremaster cycle.. althoguh im really surprised to hear cremaster 3 screened at sundance... it seems his work has only been available to the art collectors with $$$'s to burn..

why doesn't Björk have Matthew direct her videos?!? .. why doesnt Matthew have Björk pose for his art?>! ..they are very close couples!

i've only seen the first one.
im actually impressed that this is getting mentioned here.
did anyone get to the barney gugenheim exhibit?
i can't wait to get ahold of the rest of the series, but im sure ordering them from the gallery is expensive as hell.
