"People should digest work, not encounter it!" Underrated quote.
One of the great things about watching this channel is that you are introduced to so many people working in the entertainment industry you havent heard of before.
And no mention of Criterion Channel App. This is a must.
Very true. Even movie buffs have their blind spots. Like Criterion itself, these videos spotlight artists.
Be on the lookout for his upcoming film, Nickel Boys. It’s supposed to be incredible.
And some films you’ve never heard of before.
so why do we care?
Fun fact: RaMell was on the Georgetown men's basketball team and wanted to play in the NBA. Yorgos Lanthimos briefly played in the Greek pro league.
People contain multitudes, y'all.
If you haven't seen Hale County This Morning, This Evening, please, please, please do yourself a favor and watch it. Incredible documentary. So cool to see RaMell on here.
i like how he mentioned roaming library aisles and finding gems.
i found 'fishing with john' that way. couldn't really find any good pickings from the aisles i usually frequented, so i wandered over to the sports vhs tapes. and behold! that is how that bizarre gem was found. next to a tape on bass-fishing in wisconsin.
Man's bag was practically overflowing. 😂 I respect it. Good to see someone grab a Western. Not enough people go for the Westerns & Jubal is proper underrated.
Surprised more people don't completely fill their bag.
Should check out Viggo's if you haven't, all westerns
When Viggo was in he went full Western! 😂👍
Such eclectic picks. This is the ❤ of the criterion collection.
Before I knew he was a teacher, I thought to myself, "He sounds more like a professor than an actual filmmaker."
"To Sleep With Anger" getting numerous nods of love in these recent videos.
WHAT?!?! Bruce Lee box set is in the CC?!? I feel like they've been keeping it a secret!! Thanks 'Helping Hand'!! LOL!!! When he mentioned 'Cameraperson' I thought he was talking to the person filming him, hahaha! I always love when "Ghost Dog" gets picked!
FILL THAT BAG! Dont be shy just fill that thang up! :D Love it!
His knowledge, enthusiasm, and passion for film comes through. I'll have to watch La Jetée/Sans Soleil combo and re-watch Ghost Dog and The Tin Drum.
See Nickel Boys! It's perfectly executed!
Interesting movies he chose. Happy to see that he likes Tarkovsky’s movies and Bruce Lee.
The mysterious off-camera hand makes its rare appearance to reach in and give special items to a closet visitor. Where are these wondrous Dvds kept if they aren't in the closet proper? Why are they kept elsewhere? And the voice-over narrator whispers "No one knows."
Its a Van, so probably in another vehicle.
They used to have room for the big box sets on the lowest shelves. Now they’ve all been relocated off camera to the mysterious room….. does that mean we might get a larger criterion closet soon???
Pretty fitting for a guy who made his entire movie be from 2 characters' POV
I love his spinning around 3 times in order to get something completely random!
Interesting movies he chose. Happy to see that he likes tarkovsky's movies and Bruce Lee..
RaMell is the goat ! Hale County This Morning This Evening is one of the best docs you'll ever see
loved his commentary - brilliant!
I don’t know who RaMell Ross is, but he seems to be an interesting fellow so I’ll have to look him up. I also love when the guests fill the bag to the brim, so well done!
Great director and artist!

I loved the novel, so I'm really looking forward to seeing The Nickel Boys film adaptation!
Funny Coincidence I just Watched his film Hale County This Morning This Evening. Great film
Where did you see it? Streaming.
@@jcnj56 It is currently on Le Cinema Club, they host a new film each Friday, this weeks is Hale County This Morning This Evening
@@jcnj56 Currently streaming free on Le Cinema Club!
i'm telling you this dude is a legend
Excellent commentary 👍
Beautiful product
Can’t wait to see Nickel Boys! 👏🏼
this is what a lover of film looks like. I can't stand people who claim to love film and then talk about how they don't watch movies. WTF. I wish I could take his classes.
beautiful video 💗💗
Great director and artist.
RaMell is the man. Nickel Boys is incredible ❤️
“You need to bring it in. You need to EAT it.”
Library was awesome 👌
Beautiful items
I love that jacket ngl
You should put his jacket in your criterion bag
The Hand of Fate, but not Manos. When he talked about grabbing movies at the library based on their titles, I knew he’d be an ideal candidate for the random pick.
mst3k manos hands of fate -- "LOOK honey!...It's a statue of BAAAH-UUUUUL"
Really you are a great artist
very popular old films and history..... 😍😍😍😍
I wanna make a library similar to this
Visitors should spin around 8 1/2 times for the random pick. Or as many times as there are titles in the collection
Excellent ❤🎉❤
Dude! I've been promoting Delmer Daves for ever -- good pick.
He's got nothing on Dave Delmers and his excellent film, 'Abjul'
Nice project
Wonderful experiences
I like his Movies 🥰🥰🥰
Can we please expect The Nickel Boys in Criterion?
Second this. Both "Nickel Boys" and "Hale County This Morning, This Evening" should be priorities for Criterion to release in 2025.
Amazing 👍👍
Good review

The man's bag is fuuuull and I am not mad.
“People on the other end.” I like that

Good story
I've already own Ghost Dog: The Way of The Samurai last month for the 50%off at barnes and noble and is really peak cinema it does have John Wick and Denzel's The Equalizer vibe and style and if you watched carefully you can feel Martin Scorsese Goodfellas style and a really killer musical score and soundtrack by RZA
Wow😮🎉
