I've always heard Salo 120 Days of Sodom is one of the greatest first date movies. Blue Velvet might be a good one too, just to break the ice and get to know someone, or show her both as a double feature. Break out the popcorn!
Far be it from me to bicker with Jarvis's memory, but Pulp's "Mile End" was actually used in the montage of Begby visiting Renton's apartment in London later in the film. The toilet scene song in the early part of the film was Brian Eno's "Deep Blue Day". ;-)
Also, in his interview with Mike Leigh from the Meantime release, he says the film Leigh brought to show his class was Grown-Ups, not Nuts in May. These galling untruths are a stain upon the closet.
And that let to a Pulp fan saying one of the most brilliant sentences ever: "All he did was wiggle his bum, and then get kicked in by some bloke dressed as Buddha".
I remember hearing Pulp's song "Disco 2000" when it was released in 1995. I waited for years to add that song to my 1999 New Years Eve Party playlist. Good times.
Criterion you HAVE to get The French Dispatch in the collection. Jarvis does some fantastic music in that and it's one of Wes Anderson's best films if not his all-time best
I like how slow-paced his short remarks on these films are. Nice choices too. By the way, I am also a short-sighted filmmaker who makes some sounds and music. :3
i love these so much. i feel like i'm standing there with them sometimes, nodding along, in conversation. i love cinema. it brings us all together through stories. it's like a magical yarn factory. still want to hang out in that closet with kay reeves, though. make it happen.
Yes, he was the best frontman from the UK in the 90’s. Yes, some of us await his 3rd solo album like crazy and yes, I still watch regularly the stop motion music video he directed for Aphex Twin back in the early 90’s. Proper piece of collaborative art between two brilliant creators.
Knew he'd have positive things to say about Mike Leigh. There's a YT vid of him interviewing him. One of the best interviews of Leigh I've seen in fact. Cheers!
been watching a lot of Wes Anderson films in my collection recently as I recently bought Bottle Rocket because it was on sale here in the UK (Criterion releases aren't on sale that often), hopefully they gave Jarvis a multi-region player as all US criterion bluray releases are region A coded.
Jarvis, wow. I mentioned previously, regarding the Mike Leigh/Marianne video, that I'd binged on Mike Leigh films this year; more recently I binged on Pulp/Jarvis archive, here on utube. I wondered if he'd pick a Wes Anderson film. Liked his intro about being short sighted and TV/"reality," plus his comment on Blue Velvet.
That is just the thing either you are ready to take the plunge and watch Salo. Or you are not. All that has been said and written about it is true to one extent or another. And you simply have to ask yourself am i up for that level or am i not. It is a rewarding watch but man it will give you a number.
@@warlockofwordschannel7901 Wow kudos that is early. I think i was in my mid 30s. It is a milestone in cinema so i woudltn want to put an age restriction on it. But as i mentioned dont necessairly read up on it dear criterion collection fan but do some research just so you have an idea whats in store. ITs an experience.
I jokingly remarked that Salo is rewarding. But honestly, I don't have the intellect to genuinely glean something from that movie. it's ultimately something I regret watching. But out of curiosity, how did you find it's rewarding?
@mmayer1558 if you're interested in De Sade's work, and Pasolini's other films. It's anti-authoritarian/ anti-consumerist messages pop out at you more.
@@mmayer1558 ITs a bit hard to explain im not a native english speaker. But in my purest form i got out of it feeling that man Pasolini did a feature like this in the 70s in a highly catholic country and while it is full of questionable content to say the least he doesnt shy away from nor does he exploit in it either. It is simply portrayed straight. Its up to the viewer to make their mind up about the events. He simply lays the cards on the table for the viewer. But i fully see where you are coming from. And i think many viewers will reach the same opinion aswell. Like why did i do this. Im not e movie professor. But since you asked. :)
Is that the same guy who made music for Wes Anderson like Fantastic Mr. Fox and The French Dispatch? Cool! Love his movie choices including Salo, Trainspotting and of course Fantastic Mr Fox.
my Mom read the book The Incredible Shrinking Man and she told me that at the end of the book, he got so tiny he was blown by the wind onto the body of a normal sized person and within that body he was in a land of others like him, then he began to shrink again. ?
@philstone6129 th-cam.com/video/Ofd0Mi42pY0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ySFY_u9n2jEk-AF1 No, I don't prepare a script, that would be ridiculous. My pages are brought to me.
@katoness true enough, Brian is thus accused. But referring to the scariest man in the world, his father, Farmer Bean's criticism of Petey's Song in the Fantastic Mr. Fox. I linked the video above.
Do yourself a favor: don't bother with Salo. It wounded me for life. If you want fascism - go some place else. A myopic view of the horrors of the Nazi Camps? Son of Saul is front row and center. I know, many will disagree, but Salo was really not necessary for me to see.
He's clueless. Wes Anderson is one of the most overrated rubbish film makers of the century along with Christopher Nolan. I can't understand the hype at all.
I can't stand Wes Anderson movies. That fake "beauty", cartoonish characters, unnatural colours, pretentious design, annoying symmetry, everything looks like animated antique postcards.
@grumpysorc3744 What a gross Hollywood hack is Wes "AI"nderson. It's like he's purposely trying to make everything soooooo perfect. Give me a break, you make me puke Mr look at my precious movies that look like they were crapped out of a unicorn, all sparkly. Who watches his movies anyway?
You don't need nerve, you just need a Blu-ray player to see it in all its spectacular glory. You can't go wrong. It's a real treat and rewards multiple viewings. Comes with a real meaty booklet too, which is sorely lacking in most new editions of the last few years
I took her to Criterion’s Closet. I don’t know why, but I had to start it somewhere…
So it started, there.
@@warlockofwordschannel7901 I said, “pretend you got no money”
@@warlockofwordschannel7901 I said, "Pretend you don't know Lynch or Lumet", And she just said, "Oh, Rushmore's funny!"

Whoever had the idea of putting him here is a bloody genius!!
Up next, Robyn Hitchcock.
When he said St Martin's, that lyric kicked in :D
Jarvis and Michael Jackson’s collaboration on stage is cool
And that let to a Pulp fan saying one of the most brilliant sentences ever: "All he did was wiggle his bum, and then get kicked in by some bloke dressed as Buddha".
Me arse!
Goated moment
Jarvis was also getting down with some random lady at the same venue, right before joining Jackson on stage...
I worked with Jarvis’s dad Mac in Darwin, Australia back in the 90s. Jarvis would be about the age Mac was back then (RIP).
he studied film at St Martin's college... that's where Salo caught his eye...
"That's where I, caught her eye" - I've always liked that line.
Good old Jarvis! Love him.
MY HERO!!!!!!!!!!!
🌟💮
finally i’ve been waiting for this one for weeks and he did not disappoint
"Why live in the world when you can live in your head?"
Didn't expect him here at all. 😂
Ken Oath
Same I was litrally just listening to the 'Fantastic Mr Fox' soundtrack. So juicy. Like an apple juice flood.
I love how unpretentious Jarvis’s choices are, like he’s not trying to impress anyone.
I remember hearing Pulp's song "Disco 2000" when it was released in 1995. I waited for years to add that song to my 1999 New Years Eve Party playlist. Good times.

Totally agree. Fortunately there’s a very high chance of it going in.
I like how slow-paced his short remarks on these films are. Nice choices too.
By the way, I am also a short-sighted filmmaker who makes some sounds and music. :3
The album "Different Class" is freakin' amazing 🤘🤩🤘🤩😍🤘
So is His N Hers and This Is Hardcore and We Love Life. Throw in the Jarvis and Further Complications albums in there as well why don’t you.
Hardcore is even better.
JARVIS! Y'all have outdone yourselves.
him talking about tv being more real than the real world made me think of videodrome
I saw the tv glow
I never knew Jarvis Cocker was a film student, but rock stars have to come from some art school!
Many of his songs lyrics are very cinematic, imho.
i love these so much. i feel like i'm standing there with them sometimes, nodding along, in conversation. i love cinema. it brings us all together through stories. it's like a magical yarn factory. still want to hang out in that closet with kay reeves, though. make it happen.
Some solid picks but laced with self-indulgence
What a fab change-of-pace visitor to the closet, I love Jarvis's low energy vibe. You should get a Florian Habicht film (or two) in the collection!
Another treat Criterion, keep them coming! X
Some of my favorite music.
There's a quote by him on the back of my copy of The Hawkline Monster by Richard Brautigan. Great songwriter.
Jarvis Cocker. Director of Apex Twin, LFO & Nightmares on Wax videos. When not singing in Pulp.
Yes, he was the best frontman from the UK in the 90’s. Yes, some of us await his 3rd solo album like crazy and yes, I still watch regularly the stop motion music video he directed for Aphex Twin back in the early 90’s. Proper piece of collaborative art between two brilliant creators.
Jarvis! Excellent picks! Different Class lp is fabulous!
Nice to see Jarvis on this.

Awesome guest!!
oh to be living like jarvis cocker…
TV was how I found out I was shortsighted too
TV was what made me shortsighted.

The only closet guest to leave with a film on each format
I am surprised he didn't choose the classic film Jarvis Cocker's Search For Knockers.
the goat of music 🐐
Jarvis, wow. I mentioned previously, regarding the Mike Leigh/Marianne video, that I'd binged on Mike Leigh films this year; more recently I binged on Pulp/Jarvis archive, here on utube.

I was ready when I was 18. Went to see it in Dublin's IFI. My introduction to extreme cinema.

Love Jarvis!
So cool!
Jarvis, I went to see Ethan Hawke’s horrible Great Expectations just to hear a Pulp song, Like a Friend. 😊
Love Javis❤
Hero for our times
we love you Jarvis
Is that the same guy who made music for Wes Anderson like Fantastic Mr. Fox and The French Dispatch? Cool!
Love his movie choices including Salo, Trainspotting and of course Fantastic Mr Fox.
Yes, and he's the lead vocalist and chief songwriter for Pulp, one of the greatest rock bands to ever come out of the U.K.
Can't believe they managed to get Petey.
This was good.
OK. I will openly admit that I expected Jarvis Cocker to have a much more eccentric and interesting taste...
Thank you!!!!

Very cool👍
i loooooove jarvis
👍by JD
it's been a long time since i've seen "salo".... i'm not sure if i want to watch it ever again.
I like the first 2 movies! I read they ate very expensive chocolate in Salo.......
Blur or Oasis? Pulp actually
No, Ocean Colour Scene.
@@katoness lose the comma: 'No Ocean Colour Scene'. 🚫 💫
Felt was way more interesting than any of those bands.
Swervedriver
I guess he does whatever common people do
They should get Common in the closet. Then Common can do what common people do
Sounds like he's just making it up as he goes along!
Isnt that what we all do when we talk?or do you prepare your script each morning?
It's just weak closeting. He has to learn how to closet better
@philstone6129 th-cam.com/video/Ofd0Mi42pY0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ySFY_u9n2jEk-AF1
No, I don't prepare a script, that would be ridiculous. My pages are brought to me.
Is that not a line from the Life of Brian?
@katoness true enough, Brian is thus accused. But referring to the scariest man in the world, his father, Farmer Bean's criticism of Petey's Song in the Fantastic Mr. Fox. I linked the video above.
'bout a handsome little boxset, let me sing you folks a yarn
JARV... IS the best
eu nasci pra esse momento.
Wait… he ACTUALLY studied at St Martins College?
common people KNOW!
He hasn't been working class for a long time.
I'm not a filmmaker, singer, or actor, but can I visit the Criterion closet and fill up a bag with dvds please?
All good, apart from that Salo muck.
Coolest 😊
Should have picked Songs of Earth.
saló? well.. this is a hardcore one.
Salo!!!!
"You wrote a bad song, Petey!"
wild pick to have in the closet but I'll take it lol
Children Of Men Criterion confirmed! 😉
Really!?!?!?
@@LadyAmerican probably not, but one of his songs was featured in the end credits
Has anyone asked Jarvis abt being referenced in Saltburn? Was he involved in that
Please get Guy Garvey in the closet!! The man is a living legend!!
BIG DAY FOR COCKERNATICS
I need Salo, directed by Wes Anderson.
Oh geez 😆😆 I can definitely see Jeff Goldblum and Adrien Brody cast in it. Wow what an idea 🤣
❤❤
Salò is a perfect Xmas film for 2024.
Jarvis Cocker? I hardly know her!
Do yourself a favor: don't bother with Salo. It wounded me for life. If you want fascism - go some place else. A myopic view of the horrors of the Nazi Camps? Son of Saul is front row and center.
I know, many will disagree, but Salo was really not necessary for me to see.
"Children of Men".
Now get Liam & Noel Gallagher!
JC
He went to film school at St. Martin's college that's where I....
caught his eye
Michael Jackson's mate....
Lol wat?
Whatever!
Jarvis WHAT
mid
First.
Aren't I great altogether! 😉
Nope. Sorry.
@jeshkam They should get 'Nope' in the Criterion Collection
That's just weak choices! You chose bad titles PETEY!
Maybe he loves them.
Maybe they’ll invite you on to choose the classics! 😃👍
@@xtraspecialmango I think having your film in the collection and getting to do a closet video is better than winning an oscar.
Wow. Super eager to hear the opinions of the man who wrote 'Common People'...
Who next, a Kardashian perhaps? Here's hoping...
you're legitimately comparing Jarvis Cocker to a Kardashian?
@h0lly_blue Broadly speaking, absolutely.
It really sounds like you know nothing about him. He also studied film, directed music videos and presented an art TV series.
He's clueless. Wes Anderson is one of the most overrated rubbish film makers of the century along with Christopher Nolan. I can't understand the hype at all.
He's clueless but it's you who doesn't understand??ok😂
Why don't you just carve a turkey, pal 🦃...and merry Christmas 🎄
I can't stand Wes Anderson movies. That fake "beauty", cartoonish characters, unnatural colours, pretentious design, annoying symmetry, everything looks like animated antique postcards.
What do you like then?

I remember people talking about Salo on the alt.cult.movies newsgroup circa 1994. Thirty years later I still haven’t worked up the nerve to watch it.
You don't need nerve, you just need a Blu-ray player to see it in all its spectacular glory. You can't go wrong. It's a real treat and rewards multiple viewings. Comes with a real meaty booklet too, which is sorely lacking in most new editions of the last few years
