What do you think? Is this film truly lost for ever or will it one day pop up in some one's basement?
I believe i've heard stories of films being lost and then discovered later on. I think it was Dreyer's passion of Joan of Arc that was lost for many years and then after world war 2, it was discovered in an old abandon insane asylum which then was restored and is the version we now have.
Well, if this is true, it would seem it was never lost to begin with:
NEW LOOK AND ANOTHER UPDATE!Been waiting a while now though. Hopefully we'll see soon.

"The audio commentary has officially been recorded in NY for the EL TOPO North American DVD release. EL TOPO and THE HOLY MOUNTAIN will both be released by Jody Klein at ABKCO FILMS soon. When exactly is not confirmed but were hoping are around early 2006. Special DVD supplements will include deleted scenes from both films, remastered prints in their original scope. The long awaited short film 'THE SEVERED HEAD', rare stills from Jodorowsky's personal photo collection. Original trailers from around the globe, and more. The inclusion of 'THIS IS NOT REAL...THIS IS A FILM' is being concidered for THE HOLY MOUNTAIN release. Keep posting!

shareLa Cravate was considered lost for about 50 years and was finally digitally remastered from a print found in a German attic in 2006.
Death to Videodrome! Long live The New flesh!
