A love story in the city of dreams . . . Blonde Betty Elms (Naomi Watts) has only just arrived in Hollywood to become a movie star when she meets an enigmatic brunette with amnesia (Laura Harring). Meanwhile, as the two set off to solve the second woman’s identity, filmmaker Adam Kesher (Justin Theroux) runs into ominous trouble while casting his latest project. David Lynch’s seductive and scary vision of Los Angeles’s dream factory is one of the true masterpieces of the new millennium, a tale of love, jealousy, and revenge like no other.

Will get a UK Release as well:

Check out the other Mulholland thread in the digi section.. info there from Paul B. is that Zavvi are listing the US Criterion release on their platform - the actual 4k UK release is due from Studiocanal at some stage. French edition is live for preorder..
 
Bad Lands was also released from Criterion and from Warner as Slipbox in the UK. Why should that be different with this one? We´ll see. The listing on Zavvi with the high price is for the US-release for sure.
When I´m serious I would prefer this edition, but these premium labels can´t throw away their rule only to provide only one single English audio-track and not to include other language options. So it will be the Studiocanal-release anyway.

Do we know if the new 4K edition is exactly the same packaging as the previous Criterion release?
 
Shipped, and subtracted another $10 per their lowest preorder price guarantee, so I got it for $25 ($31 shipped), which is about £20 cheaper, than UK version with dubious art everywhere.
 
If anyone is curious—the slipcover for the 4K/blu-ray Criterion combo is the right size for a steelbook plus the booklet, instead of the digipak. Now we just need a good steelbook for this film. :)
 
That's why I didn't jump on it during the sale. I wanna see what everyone else has to offer other than a giant K.
Criterion art has been pretty weak for the last few years.
I'm a Graphic Designer myself and no way would I have designed the book like that as I could see the potential problems at first base....
