Me, watching with my three (3) Criterions: Ah yes, a fellow collector
Hey, we all started with just one, right?
LITERALLY ME
Same!! 😂😂
I just subscribe to the Criterion Channel.
One film I can recommend is “Paris, Texas”. It was a movie my dad saw when it first released back in 1984. He only saw it once but it changed his perspective on his life. At the time he was an alcoholic and struggling to overcome his addiction. He told me this was the movie that gave him that final push to attend an AA meeting and come back from it for his children and his own life. About a year ago I wanted to surprise him with this movie to watch and by the end he was crying which I’d never seen him do before. I was born by the time my dad was well and sober so I never got to see him in that state. I saw so much of him in the main character of the film and just how the story was so parallel to his life with his first marriage. He suddenly passed away a few months back and was surrounded by all his children. His life motto was “I’m learning to love” and that’s exactly what I felt from that movie and exactly how I’ll continue to live my life. Although this film was for obvious reasons very personal for me, I can’t help but recommend “Paris, Texas” to you Marianna. It’s what got me into Criterion and plus it’s a rad film. Hoping your collection goes as strong as your passion for films!
Thanks, Bill
Amazing story. One my favorites as well
Sounds like he was a great guy. I thought I couldn’t respect you any more, keep going with your videos man your dad would be proud
Ooh hi Bill a pleasant surprise to see you here haha. Hope you are more emotionally stable now and fully recovered from the personal stuff from September
I'm so glad a company like Criterion exists. People who care about preserving good cinema for our future generations because a lot of people often overlook how important it is to our history and culture.
Criterion collection added Bong Jun Ho's another masterpiece "Memories of murder" this year. I highly recommend it to you.
On The Watefront is a masterpiece
You are the only person that i know has "All About My Mother". WONDERFUL!!!
Lady Snowblood! - Meiko Kaji's music is amazing too.
I would recommend "Paris, Texas", "A Brighter Summer Day" and "In the mood for love"
A brighter summer day is essential watching! You must get this title! I love it so much I bought one for my friend even.
Here's My Criterion Collection So Far:
1. Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas
2. Godzilla
3. The Graduate
4. House
5. Inside Lewis Davis
6. The Irishman
7. Lonesome
8. My Dinner With Andre
9. Night of the Living Dead
10. RoboCop
11. The Silence of the Lambs
12. Thief
Next Criterion I'll get will be Bringing Up Baby, which I already pre-ordered.
NICE! That's a fun selection!
Robocop?? 😮
@@paulvoorhies8821 Yeah the old DVD version. I was able to get it factory sealed
I adore Inside Llewyn Davis! It's my favorite Coen Bros film as well. Beautiful collection 💜🌟
Wong Kar Wai's films are worth collecting. 'Chungking Express' and 'In the Mood for Love' would be my personal picks.
You should definitely review your Criterions as you pick them up. Used and new, you can see how their presentation has grown more sophisticated and robust over time.
Great collection! Glad to see another video of someone cherishing movies from the Criterion Collection.
I haven't seen a lot of these, but you absolutely have to check out On the Waterfront. Saw it a year ago, and it's probably one of my favorite older films. It might be one of the best films to recommend to people just getting into older cinema. There's a speech from a preacher at a shipyard that has probably become one of my favorite movies speeches of all time.
I only started collecting Criterions this year. And well, I already have 8 films thus far:
- A Brighter Summer Day
- Come & See
- Parasite
- Portrait of a Lady on Fire
- Secret Sunshine
- Shoah
- Solaris
- Some Like It Hot
I 100% plan on buying that Wong Kar Wai boxset and Memories of Murder release in July at Barnes & Noble.
That's an amazing start to your collection! I will also be picking up "Memories of Murder" along with "Mirror"... and most likely a few more because there are SO MANY options!
I was 12 too when I watched it. Such an amazing film. The performances from Anthony Hopkins and Jodie foster were incredible
Yes to the Criterion review series!
Yes to the criterion review series 🔥🔥
I highly recommend getting Elaine May's insanely underrated film Mikey and Nicky (1976) starring Peter Falk and John Cassavetes. I saw it for the first time back in January and it IMMEEDIATELY became one of my favorite films of all time.
Solaris is my all time favourite too ☺️👌 the original one
Hey Marianna! I love your passion for art. Keep the videos coming!
Can't stop, won't stop!
Eyes Without a Face is outstanding!
So many classic movies I haven't seen. Thank u for the recommendations.
You're welcome! Enjoy!
Those zero-expectation films that blow your mind are definitely something special. Some of my all time favourites are the results of that situation.
OMG! Please do the Tarkovsky series! Very excited for that.
Blow Out is possibly my favourite De Palma too. Tootsie was actually the first movie I saw at the cinema when I was four years old - long story!
The Criterion release of Sword of Doom (1966) is a strong one.
okay i need to get my hands on that silence of the lambs edition ASAP
Girl, YES, you do!!
I have the film, "El Norte", on Criterion Blu-Ray. Excellent story and film!
yeah, please do a review collection of all of those!!
The bad guy in “I SAW THE DEVIL,” makes Hannibal seem like a kindly schoolteacher! 😂
Thanks for making this video Marianna! Great to watch you highlight why each film has a special place in your collection.
Here is my collection:
- Parasite
- Memories of Murder
- Portrait of a Lady on Fire
- Roma
- The Thin Red Line
- Seven Samurai
From these films, I’ve watched all of Parasite commentary and special features (highly recommend!) and a scattering of features from the others. All of the film presentations are beautiful. In addition I love how Criterion is the only way to watch some of these films on bluray, such as Roma. I just bought and watched Memories of Murder for the first time and can’t wait to dig into the plethora of commentaries and special features.
I’d love to see you do some Criterion specific reviews in the future!
Hi, enjoyed this video.. became a big Criterion fan a few years back so built up a bit of a collection now.. I'd say my top 10 favorites are Tree of Life, Passion of Joan of Arc, City Lights, Come and See, In the Mood for Love, Harakiri, Dr Strangelove, Night of the Hunter, Ikiru, & Elephant Man... tho I admit that's because those are my favorite movies with an in print release. Can't help but give a nod to amazing releases of the Zatoichi set & the brand new Wong Kar Wai set to name a couple. So many others with great extras & packaging...could go on for awhile. You mentioned some great releases here too... thanks for the video!
Awesome collection and don't forget about the B&N sale right now. Great time to add more to the collection!
I watched The Cranes are Flying for the first time a few months ago, and it immediately became one of my favorite films. I feel like it’s one of the best films in the collection that most people haven’t seen. Another one is Marketa Lazarova.
I haven't seen The Cranes are Flying. It seems really neat! Marketa Lazarova is soooooo goood. Everyone should check it out!
You reminded me I had Tootsie unopened on the shelf. Opened it and will watch it tomorrow. It’s my favorite comedy ever.
I highly recommend the Tati Box Set. Playtime is my second favorite comedy of all time. It’s hypnotic.
I love your videos mate.❤️❤️
Thank you!!
I just bought Solaris! Can't wait to watch it.
I've watched a few of these and they didn't really touch me in the same way (ex. Cranes). You really made me want to rewatch. So much of my viewing pleasure has to do with where I'M at, atm.
i internally screamed in excitement when i saw the title
Eureka and Arrow are sort of the UK equivalent of Criterion in that they release many restored versions of classic and art house films with special features and nice cover designs. Many of their releases are region-locked and not available on the US. You have to get a multi-region Blu-ray player, and endure long shipping time from the UK.
On the Waterfront is so good! As far as Criterions that I have, I recommend Do the Right Thing, Night of the Living Dead and the Before Trilogy!
These kind of vídeos are, let’s say, delicious. Looking forward to see your Andrei Tarkovski’s reviews. “Cold War” is wonderful. Greetings from Portugal.
Glad you enjoyed!
Woo hoo. I love these kind of videos. Eclectic is cool.
Glad you like them!
I just got my first Criterion in the mail about a week ago. It was the Criterion Blu-Ray release for Night of the Living Dead. The cover art is amazing! I also love the poster that came with it. I haven’t found time to watch it quite yet, but I definitely look forward to watching the film soon and checking out the horde of bonus features!
Started off with my favourite film. There's quite a few of my favourites here to be honest, terrific collection.
Being a UK collector it's a struggle, but my collection's getting there.
Thanks for the great content!
Aww that's a bummer you guys don't get as many. Which ones are your favorites?
@@ImpressionBlend tough to say. The likes of Yi Yi, Stalker, The Koker Trilogy, Certain Women and Do the Right Thing would be top tier for me though.
Criterion collection is the most prestigious independent studio. They do THE best job reviving old artistic movies and they still put booklets inside. No matter how expensive they are they worth it ,and that comes from someone that don’t collect artistic films. I only wish they made their releases region free, becouse very little is available in region B. Is one of the main reasons I support 4K as much as I can. I have Gilda, A mad mad mad world in BD and the Spartacus dvd edition from them.
Eyes Without a Face is my favorite film!!
There are so many amazing Criterion Collection titles and many films I still haven't seen, but if a great sale occurred, I'm keeping my eyes open for ones I have seen which include:
- 'The Great Dictator' starring Charlie Chaplin (a classic, of course)
-- 'Being There' starring Peter Sellers and Shirley Maclean in an hilarious political comedy
- 'Ghost World', a dark comedy starring Thora Birch and Steve Buscemi
- 'Klute' starring Jane Fonda and Donald Sutherland about a serial killer murder mystery
I'm so happy you made another Criterion Collection video :) I have nearly all of your Russian collection with the exception of Andrei Rublev, and with the addition of The Ascent and Come and See (My favorite Criterion blu ray). My personal favorites in my collection include The Red Shoes (restoration/supplements are fantastic), Come and See, Shoah, Hoop Dreams, and any other Powell and Pressberger movie. My collection has grown substantially since your last collection update. Over 100 Criterions now, not to mention the Bergman box set.
Just counted 143 for my Blu-ray Criterions. Think my favorite supplement has to be the awesome "Charles Laughton Directs 'The Night of the Hunter'" outtake/documentary. Laughton kept the camera rolling between takes, and it's fascinating to watch a making-of from 1955 that matches what they do today with extra features.
@@slc2466 Nice! I own that one, I will have to check it out. Thanks!
@@gurutattoo75 It's really something- you get to see Laughton directing the actors between takes, for one (love his "Oh dear" after one particularly emotional Shelley Winters take).
Just found your channel and subscribed. I have over 100 Criterion’s and some I’d recommend are Night of the Hunter, any Fellini, Do the Right Thing and The Innocents.
Love your criterion collection. I started my collection 4 years ago so I have a large collection. I really went crazy once I realized Amazon and Barnes & Noble in July and November have a sale-half off.. There are a few you have up there that I don't have😊
Great Review! I love the Criterion Collection. One of the best I've seen is Spartacus, which has an amazing number of great extras including classic promotional interviews with stars like Jean Simmons.
Thanks for the review of the Breakfast Club Criterion Collection. One of my All Time favorite movies. Looking forward to checking it out!
Lady Snowblood is excellent! You’ll love them both ❤️
I'm coming , wait you are not going anywhere !! Back to back videos !!! That's interesting !! 😇
Great wristwatch. On the Waterfront is pure art. A Streetcar Named Desire is also. I am starting The Blade Itself later. Another stellar video. Thanks.
LOVE "A Streetcar Named Desire", I hope they do a release of it one day. Enjoy "the Blade Itself"!!
Love the way you pronounce the Tarkovsky films.
I only have a handful of Criterion Collection movies including 'The Blob' (1958) on Blu-ray, 'Fantastic Planet' on DVD, 'The War of the Worlds' (1953) on DVD, and 'Scanners' on Blu-ray. :)
Great collection. I am building up mine as well. Some I would highly recommend are Fritz Langs M, High & Low, Bicycle Thieves, Anatomy of a Murder, Make way for tomorrow, Taste of Cherry, and Lost in America. You can also never go wrong with any Hitchcock film either. I have seen a bunch of Russian classics but not much of the criterion ones. The only one I have seen is Letter Never Sent, which I would recommend as well. It is very atmospheric with stunning cinematography.
You nailed it on Cold War. A brilliant film.
All that Jazz is a great Criterion edition
Awesome collection! Parasite is the only one from your collection that I do not own. I need to get on that. Also, please do a review series of all these. It’d be great.
I remember watching On the waterfront for the first time at the theater a few years ago. I read nothing about it, knew nothing about it and it was incredible.
I was early on the Criterion Collection train, so I have close to 100 of them. Actually over that, if I include all the films in large collections (such as Bergman Collection, Godzilla Collection, and Zatoichi Collection). I love people who know about movies showing off their Criterion movies, it truly is like making your own mixtape to give to someone you care about. Also, I cannot wait for your Tarkovsky video, I have those same movies and am super excited for The Mirror.
Hi Marianna,
I enjoyed this video, and like others, would look forward to you Tarkovsky reviews! I watched and collected many Criterion Collection back when it was just DVDs, I am updating slowly with Blu-Ray. I would recommend the following films to check out which have been reissued by Criterion on Blu-Ray:
"The Red Shoes" and "Black Narcissus" by Powell & Pressburger were (to me) absolutely essential to update to Blu-Ray, and my very first Blu-Ray Criterion purchases . These are both classics, visually impressive, and a great introduction to P&P's work.
"Night of the Hunter" by Charles Laughton
"Ikiru" by Akira Kurosawa--my favorite movie from him ("High and Low" is also recommended, a great thriller)
"Au Hasard Balthazar" by Robert Bresson- again, a great intro to his work/style
"The Passion of Joan of Arc" by Carl Dreyer- a silent movie, but a masterpiece, unforgettable work
"Letter Never Sent" by Mikhail Kalatazov (the director of "Cranes Are Flying")
"Sansho the Bailiff" by Kenzi Mizoguchi
"Tokyo Story" by Yasujiro Ozu
"Rebecca" by Alfred Hitchcock- also, one of the most informative audio commentaries I have ever heard
"All That Heaven Allows" by Douglas Sirk and also (a movie that was heavily influenced by it) "Ali: Fear Eats the Soul" by Rainer Werner Fassbinder
Two cult classics:
"Two-Lane Blacktop" by Monte Hellman- definitely an acquired taste and a demanding movie, but it is a great time capsule of America during the end of the '60s. I love the sweeping panoramas and landscapes, the atmosphere it develops
"Repo Man" by Alex Cox- another off-beat, cult classic
Happy viewing! Best, Joe
I was literally just looking at their edition of Picnic at Hanging Rock when the notification for this popped up. I'm taking that as a sign!
I bought this edition a couple of years ago. It's incredible (like the movie). It even contains the original novel!
Ooooh, very excited for those Tarkovsky videos. Mirror is in my top 10 films of all time, love to hear your thoughts on it. Cheers
All About Eve, Lady Snowblood, On the Waterfront, Pan's Labyrinth, The Silence of the Lambs, Blow Out, All About My Mother, The Breakfast Club, Parasite, & The Cranes Are Flying are some of my favorites!
I recommend Sofia Coppola's The Virgin Suicides for a devastating romance drama, David Lean's Brief Encounter for a breathtaking romance drama, & John M. Stahl's Leave Her to Heaven for a delightful film noir.
I think Bottle Rocket is the best Wes Anderson movie, although I have not seen Rushmore and Royal Tenenbaums.
Bottle Rocket is amazing. Just slightly behind The Grand Budapest Hotel for me.
I would totally loveee some reviews of criterion titles, greetings from Colombia
The UK only gets a select few Criterion releases, but I recently started my collection with the Before trilogy and The Royal Tenenbaums. Next on my list, I'll be getting 12 Angry Men, my favourite movie of all time.
I'm sadly a latecomer to Some Like It Hot, but when I watched it, it's hysterical just how raunchy it is compared to other movies from the 50s, this is the one that broke the Hays Code after all.
"Nobody's perfect."
I'm a UK collector too, I have to recommend picking up The Apu Trilogy.
Haha! Ryan, I do not judge - there is only so much time in a day, and it's impossible to watch every single film out there. Glad you finally got around to "Some Like It Hot", what a masterpiece!
no dazed and confused?! their edition is amazing!
I am a fellow physical and very much so Criterion collector. Also a new subscriber in general. I hope you do an update video in the not so distant future of new criterion additions over the past year since you published this one.
There are a few 50% off sales on Criterions every year- Barnes & Noble does them and I think Criterion has similar flash sales. I've been getting my Criterions for years at 50% off; still pricy, but only by half.
That's where I shop )) Always have a list going for the B&N sales, but the flash sales happen so fast - I sometimes miss them. Waiting for the next one!
Great video. Nice collection.
Great collection! I mean, can anyone really have a bad collection of Criterions? I don't think so! For future picks I would recommend Le Samourai, Hiroshima Mon Amour, The Double Life of Veronique, The Innocents, and my favorite film Purple Noon is on Criterion, so of course I have to recommend that. For the others I listed I was trying to think more so about your taste/preferences.
Nice collection Marianna!
I only have 15 Criterions (I also have Rosemary's Baby, Blow Out, The Silence of the Lambs and Parasite) in my collection. Even during a sale, it's still a bit pricey for me since I'm not from the US.
Pretty nice collection Marianna, in my case I will have to settle for the Wallmart editions for a while longer...
Great collection. I will probably buy an All About Eve upgrade.
Why am I just now finding out about this channel?! Be still, my beating heart. 😍
A great looking collection. Thanks for sharing.
I'm just starting a Criterion Collection myself, only so far got the Bruce Lee collection, but I'm about to do some blind buys of classics as a cinephile I need to see, so your suggestions here are most appreciated.
Thank you for this video. The only Criterion Collection movie I own is DO THE RIGHT THING. I've had EYES WITHOUT A FACE on my HBOMax watchlist since December. Due to your inclusion of it here, I finally watched it tonight. Great film! The only other French horror films I've seen are DIABOLIQUE and THE IRON ROSE. I'm really looking forward to your Tarkovsky series. I've only seen STALKER, but SOLARIS and NOSTALGHIA are in my queue. My Bulgarian film professor told her directing class that if we have not seen all of Tarkovsky's films, then we are not ready to be directors.
Great video, have a few criterion but intrigued to buy a few more now. Big horror, sci fi fan but open to intellectual, thought provoking movies.
Many thank you's for doing this and educating me which is most welcomed. It's also about time someone of prominence recognizes the legendary magnificence of Criterion! I have had a subscription to their streaming service for quite some time now. I do love Kurosawa as he's got 25 of his films on the channel. Personally, I believe that the classic samurai films are the best in film because they are about honor more than anything else. Of course with most of them, there's action, humor, great characters with great stories.
I truly love how you are impassioned by your Russian heritage. And of course, Tarkovsky being one of the all-time greats, there's no doubt about that, I truly can't wait for your special on him. What do you think of the Eisenstein classics which abound on the channel? There's also "Ballad of a Soldier", "Wings" in which I have not seen as well as other classics. "War and Peace" I saw as a child but I do not remember it. So it is surely a requirement to see it again.
"Parasite", indeed. To me is a true masterpiece and the second-best film I've seen in the past 20 years or so. It's only behind Bladerunner 2049.
Tarkovsky series!!!! I'm all eyes and ears. (Makes it difficult to sit down.) You can't even pronounce anything related to Tarkovsky without turning into a puddle of Russian goo. I have all the Tarkovsky's and I've seen them all in the cinema (or should I say Kino?) multiple times. Easily my favorite director. I just discovered that he lived in here in Tbilisi. And then I realized that there is no good biography about dear Andrei. So yeah, I'm ready. Take your time Marianna. Make them special.
And do one one Les Yeux Sans Visage. I'd love to hear your extended thoughts on the subject. Eyes Without a Face is right up there with Tarkovsky for me so....
Thanks for sharing you Criterion Collection with us. I just got Idi I Smotri and I also found a great original Soviet Era poster, which I've since had framed. Meanwhile I'm working to get my massive library from Alaska to Tbilisi. Thoughtful as always Marianna.
I imagine writing about Tarkovsky is a difficult task, but I'm sure we will have a good biography of him one day. For now I'm collecting any good books about him I can, which are memoirs and discussions of his films ))
@@ImpressionBlend I have a novelized biography of T. coming. But something much better is needed.
And of course there is Sculpting in Time, which I would love to be able to read in Russian, but alas ...
@@TheAnadromist yeaaaa I had to settle for the English translation of "Sculpting in Time" - seems like the only way to read it in Russian is online? They really need to do a proper publication of it ((
@@ImpressionBlend I tried to find it for a multilingual Georgian friend. Stalker was her all-time favorite film. Alas snake eyes. (By the way check your mail soon for the book...)
@@TheAnadromist Keeping an eye out! ))
The first one I ever bought was Seven Samurai which was also the first Kurosawa movie I saw. Roger Ebert promoted the box set back in the day when DVDs were still vary new. I didn't get the set but I picked up the movie when it was re-released alone and later grabbed Yojimbo. I do have Stray Dog on my wishlist with possible It Happened One Night.
Great films for sure. Blow Out, Mulholland Drive and Rosemary's Baby are some of my fave films. You absolutely need to get The Innocents (1961). One of the greatest films of all time, with two ways to look at the overall of movie, fabulous cinematography, and amazing performances - I'm sure you've seen it. If you never seen Anatomy of Murder (1959), it's pretty great.
The Innocents is excellent and not very well known
All great films, but I have yet to see Lady Snow Blood or War and Peace. After watching these Criterion videos, I went back to my collection and feel a little ashamed of how many I've accumulated over the years (but some were gifts). I was glad to see Pedro Almodovar get a mention here, but I wish I had some of Rainer Werner Fassbinder's films like Ali: Fear Eats the Soul, and I would also like to get Noah Baumbach's Frances Ha starring Greta Gerwig. These are the Criterion films I currently have either on Blu-ray or DVD.

If you dont have it you should get Spike Lee's Do The Right Thing on Criterion
Some great films,, thanks. A couple of Criterion recommendations: Heart of a Dog, Slacker, and Naked Lunch. The Devil's Backbone is fantastic. Have you seen Del Torro's The Orphanage?

I have a total of 57 Criterions as of writing this.
I really wish they would start doing 4K Blu-ray and have films from A24. Arrow and Shout Factory do 4K Blu-ray but not Criterion for some reason. Hopefully soon! 🤞🏻🤞🏻
That's quite a collection! I'm sure they'll eventually start doing 4K as well, but I imagine this has to do with re-releasing a bunch of things they already have, and that would be a lot of work for them. Or maybe they would have to redo the transfers? Who knows.
I know what you mean, i wish they would as well. But looking at information that they provide; they say that there biggest sales are in DVD'S would you believe it. But hopefully maybe in the next 5 years maybe??....who knows Haha.
Sounds like you have a fine collection underway!
While I don't really see myself as a collector, just an enthusiast, others may beg to differ. Anyhow, I have chosen to re-purchase a few titles when Criterion Blu-Rays of previous DVDs appeared. My Criterion favourites include movies by beloved directors Akira Kurosawa (Rashomon, Seven Samurai, Ran, Ikiru, Yojimbo, Sanjuro, Kagemusha), Ingmar Bergman (Smiles of a Summer Night, Fanny and Alexander, Cries and Whispers, Persona, Through a Glass Darkly, The Seventh Seal, The Magic Flute), Federico Fellini (8 1/2, La Dolce Vita, Juliet of the Spirits, La Strada, Amarcord) and a number of American and British classics, plus other international classic movies. Those classics include All About Eve, His Girl Friday, The Philadelphia Story, Some Like It Hot, Kind Hearts and Coronets, Tom Jones, Brazil (and Time Bandits), The Horse's Mouth, A Hard Day's Night, Les Enfants du Paradis, La Grande Illusion, Rules of the Game, Cocteau's Belle et Bete, Playtime, Olivier's Henry V, the Tricoleur trilogy (Bleu, Blanc, Rouge), etc. Plus a couple of Wes Anderson movies and three Robert Altman films, McCabe & Mrs. Miller, Nashville, and Short Cuts.
I have always had a handful of Criterions. But, I went full on during the last sale and acquired a bunch of titles. Also, I tracked down two OOP titles: Nashville and Howard's End (On DVD. The Blu-rays are ridiculously expensive).
So far, I only own Alfred Hitchcock's adaptation of Daphne Du Maurier's Rebecca on Criterion. It's a really nice set, especially with the commentary, and the isolated music and effects track. It's totally worth it.
Time Bandits (The Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray].......is a must have !!!!!!
Cool and subtle intro..I wish I could buy these Bluray and criterion in my country.
Thank you!
Excellent video! From the ones you've shown I only have "Rosemary's Baby". I recommend you grab the Charlie Chaplin films: The Gold Rush, Modern Times and City Lights and The Great Dictator. I know they released others just haven't gotten to them yet. I also recommend: 12 Angry Men, Paths Of Glory, The Killing, The Night Of The Hunter and Kiss Me Deadly.
Oh God, as soon as she held up Sergei Bondarchuk's War and Peace, I went, "What a move. I fell in love right there."
On the Waterfront has one of the best endings in all of movie history.
NICE COLLECTION, & AWESOME MOVIES! Those boxes to 'Grand Budapest Hotel', 'Parasite', 'All About My Mother', and 'The Silence of the Lambs' are so striking and enviable in their own ways. Also, we still need to FINALLY experience Tarkovsky films! A resounding yes to your reviewing Criterion movies (and perhaps also their additional content?). Something I always love in Criterion boxes are those essays written in the inside booklet; I have a plan to use a day off to just read through a bunch that I haven't read yet lol.
I don't have a chance to look at our shelves right now, but we own a LOT of Criterion films. (Used to own 'La Dolce Vita', but a crazy ex has it lol -- need to get a new copy someday) :P
Idea for a video series: akin to your David Fincher Ranked two-parter, to create videos devoted exclusively to the films you've seen by particularly renowned directors (Guillermo del Toro, Andrei Tarkovsky, Stanley Kubrick, Pedro Almodovar, Bong Joon-ho, among other greats). There could be one or two videos for each director? Just an idea.
Take good care! )) And holy cow, I now want to go home and watch as many of our Criterion collection as possible lol
That's kind of the idea behind trying those Fincher videos. I was hoping for a bit of a more enthusiastic response in views for those, so I'm not sure if this is an interesting series for people to watch? I have a few more directors in mind, so I'll do another one soon-ish, we'll see how it goes )) It's not that I only do it "for the views" but those videos require a lot of research and time spent rewatching all of these movies sooooo I need people to actually have an interest otherwise the efforts aren't justified lol
@@ImpressionBlend lol sure, that does make a lot of sense )) Well, for whatever it’s worth, whenever you do choose to make an intensively-researched/expansive video of any kind, Page and I will surely not be alone in tuning in and certainly loving it ❤️ Of course, though, you’re certainly the expert and the actual producer of the content-the videos you make will always be fantastic, and if we do happen to think of another kind of video in which hard work might hopefully lead to a rewarding number of views, we’ll pass it along, for sure ))
