"This is the way I shopped for films" This is the way you SHOULD shop for films. Case in hand, description on the back, incredible art on the front. No one should have an algorithm keeping them in a box. Pushing your own boundaries.
Jude Law is one of the most underrated actors of his generation and it makes me happy to see many people on here give this man the respect, as well as love that he deserves. Also, thank you Criterion for always blessing us with so many big names through the years and seeing their film picks.
Jude Law comes across as hugely likeable as well as a great actor. I think one of his best performances is in The Nest with the marvellous Carrie Coon. Also love that he chose Mona Lisa ❤
Nobody forgets it when they see The Night Of The Hunter. Whether it be Cortez's extraordinarily unique cinematography or Mitchum giving one of the all-timer chilling performances. It's one of the great classics.
@@donotworryatall I felt like it dragged. Always thought I disliked old movies, but I loved Cool Hand Luke and any of Sidney Lumet's films. Also His Girl Friday.
@vittoriostoraro Not really, no. People who aren't extremely passionate about cinema have no clue who Laughton is. Casuals, which is the majority of people, wouldn't be able to tell you a single film he was in. Even if they'd seen something like The Hunchback At Notre Dame I bet they still wouldn't be aware they saw Laughton in it. Nobody is watching the film & remembering it because Laughton directed it, they are remembering it for how striking & enjoyable a visual experience it is, that's the point. The film wasn't a success either, it took decades to find an audience that appreciates how good it was even though Laughton was at the height of his powers when it was made.
I think Gattaca is the first film I'd seen him in and I was absolutely blown away and smitten. He's one of those actores that I will watch whatever his new project is regardless of everything else.
As hairywelder put it, after reading your comment I thought to myself "Didn't he do like one film that was pure crap?" So I looked up Jude Law on Google and the first 6 movies that pop out when you search him include The Holiday, the third Fantastic Beasts, and the 2009 Sherlock Holmes. Not saying that he's a bad actor (and his picks were also pretty good) but let's not glaze every celebrity invited in the closet.
The wages of fear has one of the most incredible editing sequences ever captured on film, the wind, the tobacco, the trucks…you will know when you see it. Brilliant film.
@@ByronWerner-qw5sh I agree. It pales in comparison to the original. From what I've read even Friedkin felt it wasn't as good. Surprisingly, Sorcerer is Stephen King's favorite movie of all time. He thinks it's better than the original. Go figure.
@@ByronWerner-qw5sh I think Sorcerer is better acted, produced and directed. I can not stand the Italian and French actors pretending to be Central Americans in TWoF; it's so fake.
I was the concept designer on A.I. For both Kubrick and Spielberg and met with Jude several time during its production…..it’s always nice to see the film get some love!
He might've just picked it because it's Tarkovsky, didn't really comment anything substantial on the film. As it is with most Tarkovsky fans. He's been a trend for a long time.
@@heliosfilms_bg You're a bit of a negative nancy, eh? One of the best and most influential filmmakers of the 20th century and you sum him up as just a "trend." What does one even need to say about a Tarkovsky film? They're experiences, you can get lost in them. If the film speaks to you, if you can get on its wavelength: be it Mirror, Stalker, Andrei Rublev, or Sacrifice or any other, it's not asking you to think. It's asking you to feel, to savor. Jude Law himself says he remembers experiences. I bet he remembers the first time he saw Stalker. I certainly do.
Local Hero is wonderful - I remember seeing in the theater when it was first released. His comments about Burt Lancaster are spot on! I am going to watch it again - along w/ all of his other recommendations! ****And Mark Knopfler did the soundtrack!
Always enjoy his performances. Love how down to earth he is. Never been to England, but felt like I just had a conversation with an Englishman in a pub or something. Gonna look up some of these worlds he knew.
What a great 5 mins! Just of the kind of conversations you have with yourself in the video store, or with a fellow movie lover 🙂 Notable detail includes the fact that Jude's mum introduced him to interesting films at a young age. Most of us have to leave home & go to college to find such mentors!
'The Wages of Fear' is a terrific film. One of those films that keep you riveted to your seat. 'Mona Lisa' great film and the acting was superb including Michael Caine doing bad exquisitely.
I just watched Sorcerer and absolutely loved it and have only heard amazing things about Wages of Fear - both based off the same novel. Glad to see both films getting more recognition as of late
Oh yes, the Night of the Hunter. Unforgettable. I too saw it with my mum. She loved Robert Mitchum and I have been a fan of his ever since watching this movie with my mum, even though he was terrifying.
Thank you to Critertion and to Jude Law!!! I haven't heard or seen any of the films listed and am now going to search and watch each and every one! I have always been embarrassed that I have a hard time remembering names, Jude Law just gave me the greatest thing to say when I find myself struggling in conversation. Thank you thank you thank you.
This is the rare Criterion closet episode where I've seen all the guest's selections. Of the titles here, I think 'Stalker' is the greatest, but all are worth seeing.
You get the sense he's not too keen on the "Ripley that's on TV at the moment." If so, I'm def in agreement on that one. This was a very welcome closet episode and much needed after the last visitor . . .
Thank you Jude Law for looking below the usual camera level! I keep wondering about the films missed because they're too low; people look from eye level then up. He went below camera range and found Night of the Hunter!!
omg when he disappeared and all i saw was shelves, i KNEW he was squatting down to check the lower rows, while still in conversation with all of us -- that's how i remember pouring through dvd shelves at the la crosse public library with my mom. sometimes i'd find her sitting cross-legged at the 'beck' shelves. she loved that series so much. we both thought the tall detective was so handsome, and the wonderfully odd neighbor with the neck brace worn for comfort and 'style'. i miss my mom. thanks to jude law for being in his own moment among the shelves. brought back a beautiful memory.
The Wages of Fear!! One of my all-time favorites. It was doing dangerous nail-biting nerve-wracking stunts in the 50s. Btw, a great home triple-feature would be TWOF, it’s American remake Sorcerer and a fairly unknown flick called Helldrivers that starred a very young Sean Connery 5 yrs before he became James Bond.
This is my favorite episode ever! I love jude and local hero and night of the hunter but you also gave me some new stuff to look for. But the coolest part was you picked films from the top of the shelf and the bottom rung
Great stuff! I just showed my wife Night of the Hunter, and she loved it. I also rewatched Stalker recently while looking for inspiration for a novel I'm writing; it's such a transcendent experience. Will have to get to watching The Wages of Fear, since I just saw Sorcerer for the first time recently.
@@thelostcosmonaut5555 Very loosely based on the book. Though they are quite different I like both the book and the film. There is another Russian film based on a book by the Strugatsky brothers called "Hard To Be A God". The film is sort of like a Hieronymus Bosch painting come to life. It's a hard film to like, but it is visually spectacular, at least to me. I think there is a trailer on TH-cam that will give you a good idea of the style.
The Room (2003) remains tragically underrated, a true masterpiece of unintended Drama that deserves far more acclaim. Thank you, Jude Law, for recognizing its unique charm.
@@deerheart87 A true fan! Jude Law would be proud; he’s been a longtime supporter of The Room's artistic vision. I think he even tried to get Tommy Wiseau a cameo in The Holiday, but studio execs ‘didn't get it.’
@@deerheart87 Brie Larson was originally cast as Johnny’s long-lost cousin, but they cut her scenes last minute. She joked about it once, saying it was her ‘biggest missed Oscar opportunity.’
Great choices and to add Local Hero, which probably with the Original Razors Edge are two formative films for me felt very special. Bob Hoskins in Mona Lisa too, hell of a performance and a movie.
Me too! I never would’ve thunk it, but Tarkovsky?! Night of the Hunter?! Wages of Fear?! The man has some damned good taste! Clouzot was magnificent-Diabolique, anyone?? I’ve already got the 30 BluRay Ingmar Bergman collection…I think I’d throw Costa-Gavras’s “Z,” and “The Confession” in my bag, and maybe M*A*S*H for the hell of it. Hell of a cast in it, and, imo, I still find it consistently hilarious and, don’t get mad, but far funnier and better than the series. Robert Altman’s greatest period. McCabe & Mrs. Miller followed, then the brilliant Nashville all in a 5 or 6 year period. 👏🤟✌️🎞️🎥
Love this guy…he was fantastic in Gattaca, very memorable in a role he owned and my introduction to the actor (who has quite a nice-sized family) and he seems as non-chest thumping about his successes as he is honest about his less-than-successful projects and how disappointed he was they didn’t perform better. I agree w/ his assessment as to choosing films this way: scrolling through streaming choices doesn’t quite offer the thrill seeing a tape or DVD of a film you’re keenly interested in (or have been dying to check out) did for many years.
the night of the hunter deserves far more recognition and love, not many guests pick it, and its genuinely one of the greatest films of all time, pity laughton's only directed film
If people haven't seen it, please watch Jude's first film, Shopping. It's an absolute thrill ride, and was one of my favourites as a teenager. The soundtrack is still incredible.
Wages of Fear was remade by Bill Freidkin as Sorcerer in the 70 s…excellent as well …Local Hero…what can you say …top shelf …one of the best endings you’ll see
Don't know if this was mentioned yet, but "Night of the Hunter" was the one and only movie directed by actor Charles Laughton. Stunning fairytale-like scenes that are both magical and frightening.
ive read a blurb about how much Charles Laughton really liked Robert Mitchum as a person. called him a very literate gentleman and a pleasure to be around.
Jude Law's mom going from Local Hero to Night of the Hunter might make the coolest person ever
They are brilliant films. He's got excellent taste.
Mom Law is Mom's Law
jude needs to come out of the closet
😄
Mum Law is Mum's Law. She sounds trez interesting, as the French say.

I guess Charles Laughton, merely the DIRECTOR, had nothing to do with it's success.

Friedkin remade it as Sorcerer after The Exorcist. Doesn't hold a candle to the Original. More people need to see this gripping film.

Physical media will never die. Great picks. Especially Stalker and The Night of the Hunter.
Let's hope!🤞
Right there with you. Also Blade Runner, and An Evening with Marlene Dietrich.
Just watched A.I. last night. Jude Law was amazing in that movie.
Hey Joe what do ya know?
That movie was such a huge part of my childhood! I love that movie! Might have to rewatch now...

No matter who you bring to the closet, their enthusiasm for the films is always infectious. Jude Law gave us great insight.
He was sensational in The Talented Mr. Ripley and should have won the Oscar for that performance.
Me and my girl would watch talented Mr Ripley and Romeo and Juliet…. On replay all day !!! 😂
Love that movie!
I literally have never heard (thus seen) any of the movies he selected.
I'm glad he chose them because now I know them and love to see them!
Start with Night of the Hunter and you'll be sooooooo happy.
Local Hero is wonderful - I remember seeing in the theater when it was first released. His comments about Burt Lancaster are spot on! I am going to watch it again - along w/ all of his other recommendations! ****And Mark Knopfler did the soundtrack!
I've enjoyed Jude's performances since first seeing him in Gattaca and Enemy At The Gates. Great to see him visit the Criterion film library.
Gattaca is so great
Glad to see Wages of Fear being chosen. That's a fantastic movie.
Always enjoy his performances. Love how down to earth he is. Never been to England, but felt like I just had a conversation with an Englishman in a pub or something. Gonna look up some of these worlds he knew.
Jude Law has incredible and varied taste. Honestly, I could listen to him talk about movies all day.
I could listen to him talk about anything all day… I love him so much i dressed up as his young pope character for Halloween one year lol
What a great 5 mins!

Oh yes, the Night of the Hunter. Unforgettable. I too saw it with my mum. She loved Robert Mitchum and I have been a fan of his ever since watching this movie with my mum, even though he was terrifying.
Love Night of the Hunter. That scene with Shelly Winters in the water always stays with me.
Please, please, please start making these longer. I could listen for hours.
Mona Lisa is so fantastic. Bob Hoskins shining moment!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great movie with a heart of gold.
Tarkovsky ? Night of the Hunter? It's an A+ for me!!!
The fact that he picked Stalker just stole my heart!
Same. That made me smile so much as I adore that film immensely.
It was more surprising when Anna picked it
jude! great actor. earns every bit of his fame. STILL underrated.
He's not wrong. The original The Wages of Fear is a masterwork. Sweaty, grimy, suspenseful and soaked in disappointment and wastefulness. Outstanding!
This should actually be called “Jude Law’s Cupboard Picks”
Thank you to Critertion and to Jude Law!!! I haven't heard or seen any of the films listed and am now going to search and watch each and every one! I have always been embarrassed that I have a hard time remembering names, Jude Law just gave me the greatest thing to say when I find myself struggling in conversation. Thank you thank you thank you.
Night Of The Hunter is a classic and one of my favourites.
his little giggle at the end 🥰🥰
I can’t believe he mentioned the night of the hunter! Oh my goodness Thank you!!!
I wish Jude Law starred in more movies. Terrific actor.
The Wages of Fear is definitely worth a watch
I don't remember this movie well, but I'll never forget that tension in the movie.
"i don't remember names, but i remember experiences" woow
MY BEAUTIFUL LAUNDRETTE ! LOCAL HERO, with music by MARK KNOPFLER - Beautiful on many levels.
This is the rare Criterion closet episode where I've seen all the guest's selections. Of the titles here, I think 'Stalker' is the greatest, but all are worth seeing.
Seeing this man standing amid this numbered collection of cinema.
Law and Order!

These make me realize that despite the hundreds of films I've seen I haven't seen many

It was my Mom as well that showed me what became my favorite movie- Local Hero. I was beyond thrilled when it was inducted into the collection.
Met Jude a number of times while working on A.I……such a lovely bloke! Coincidentally I rewatched Night of the Hunter earlier this year….great minds!😊
