This review is from: Belle de Jour (The Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
Criterion's foray into high-definition transfers has, thus far, set the standard for the medium and Belle Du Jour is no exception to that. The palette is crisp, the details sharp and, while not reaching the height of clarity that 8 1/2 did, is definitely a credit to the medium. The film itself, of course, is a truly engaging journey through one persons pathology and, in true Bunuel fashion, left turns and surreal imagery abounds. Suffice it to say, this is the best version of the one of the best films of all time. How can you go wrong?

This review is from: Belle de Jour (Criterion Collection) (DVD)
You never saw Belle de Jour in such a quality of images and sound. I have the older Miramax dvd and the comparison of the images is stunning: the sharp images and vivid colors are incredible in Criterion. The only thing that prevented me from throwing my old dvd in the thrash-can was that it has a commentary of scholar Julie Jones.Great Extra Material also: two great documentaries, one fantastic with Buñuel's son and Jean-Claude Carriere visiting the cities the spanish director lived and worked.

A must have for any fan of cinema. Great transfer, commentary, and interviews. Catherine Deneuve and Luis Buñuel at their finest.
