Onibaba, Beau Travail and Taste of Cherry are all currently on the Criterion Channel. I will check them all out based on your recs. And I agree, the Raging Bull is one of the best examples of 4K I've seen.
Loved your recommendations. I am a huge fan of Claire Denis and agree about everything you said about Beau Travail. For another movie with an unforgettable ending you should check out Portrait of a lady on fire. I was blown away by it.
Oh my gosh I am so happy to see Taste of Cherry on here! I love Kiarostami so much and Taste of Cherry is easily my favorite of his works. To this day there is one scene that makes me uncomfortably cry
I really enjoy the films from Ray that I’ve seen. The Hero is such a great character study. I’ll more than likely be watching the Apu Trilogy very soon!
I love your videos! I have three of your recommendations: Raging Bull, Onibaba and Taste of Cherry! All of them masterpieces!Midnight Cowboy is very good one and is in my pending pick up list. Denice film is the unique film that I haven’t seen yet looks interesting.
While I’ve heard of most of these, I have seen none of them. The ones I’m interested in the most however are Midnight Cowboy, Taste of Cherry, and Beau Travail. A recommendation I have for you in the collection, that admittedly is pretty well know, so it’s not some hidden gem, is Godfrey Reggio’s documentary Koyaanisqatsi, spine number 640. The movie is unlike no other I’ve seen. There’s no plot, no characters, no dialogue, nothing that would make it a conventional movie, just image and music. It’s a documentary and meditation on our relationship with technology and how it’s changed the land that we live on. The soundtrack, done by Philip Glass, is hauntingly beautiful, and will stick with you long after the credits finish rolling. There’s two sequels, Powaqqatsi and Naqoyqatsi, however I consider the first to be the best. I’d highly recommend giving it a watch if you haven’t already. Absolutely love this video by the way
Taste of cherry and midnight cowboy peak my interest 👌👌 My suggestion for you is Something wild, Fisher King And something that is not in criterion and seeing your interest in the masculinity topic go with Beach Rats
I've only seen Onibaba but it's been a long time. Definitely needs a revisit. I have Taste of Cherry and Raging Bull but I have yet to watch them. As for pick-ups, I've so far picked up The Devil's Backbone, The Celebration, 4 Months 3 Weeks and 2 Days, Umberto D and The Life of Oharu. I can't wait to get WALL-E when that comes out and if I have enough spending money, maybe I'll pick up the Infernal Affairs trilogy.
Here are some recommendations: The Fugitive Kind (1960) Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence (1983) Crumb (1995) Pale Flower (1964) Zazie dans le Metro (1960) Panique (1946)

Anything Kurosawa directed became an instantaneous masterpiece.
Like the visuals of you going through your collection. You are getting better Bill keep going!

What rhymes with "cry"? BUY!!! WE BUY!!!

I appreciate it! There’s a video I made separately on Taste of Cherry if you’d like to watch and hear my thoughts on it :)
Great video! I really need to get on Raging Bull and Beau Travail!
thanks for the recs
trust me i WILL watch ALL of them
As an Indian would highly recommend the Apu trilogy directed by Satyajit Ray.

I’m glad to hear you feel the same as I do towards these films! Let me know your thoughts on Beau Travail if you get around to viewing it :)

Well, I've seen "Midnight Cowboy", "Raging Bull" and "Onibaba" and now I want to see "Taste of Cherry" and "Beau Travail".
Great video! Just a small point to make about the pronunciation of Beau Travail. Travail is pronounced more like “trava-ee” ;)
Buy! Buy! Buy!.....great video as always Bill
Thanks king
Taste of cherry and midnight cowboy peak my interest 👌👌
My suggestion for you is
Something wild, Fisher King
And something that is not in criterion and seeing your interest in the masculinity topic go with Beach Rats

I just got my first two criterion, I got Malcolm X and fantastic Mr fox, I might pick up theses 5 next.
Fantastic Mr Fox is a classic! Also I can’t wait to pick up Malcolm X. Thanks for watching :)
Here are some recommendations:
The Fugitive Kind (1960)
Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence (1983)
Crumb (1995)
Pale Flower (1964)
Zazie dans le Metro (1960)
Panique (1946)
The David Bowie movie kinda seems interesting!!
I would recommend Last Year at Marienbad and Hiroshima Mon Amour
Good choice.
Unfortunately Taste of Cherry & Beau Travail are my least favorites. Felt extremely disconnected and bored but beautifully shot though.
YESSIR
I've only seen a few Claire Denis movies, but Beau Travail is the only one I didn't like 😬
WHERE’S THAT JOE BUCK!!??????
Toxic masculinity both starts and stops wars. Something to think about.
Seen all of em none in my top 50
