Why are they elevating "Traffic" to "classic film" status here ?I could see releasing the British Tv version, but this only serves to give Soderbergh some more undeserved credibility. It must make him feel good to be "in the ranks" of Renoir, Eisenstein, Bergman, Fellini, Carne, Antonioni, etc.
This is another quirky Criterion release...up there with "Armageddon" and "The Rock". What possesses them to do remasters of junk movies like these, but not pursue other films that deserve more attention...genuine classics !
