John Singleton’s ‘Hood Trilogy’ Gets a Criterion Collection Release: Here’s Where to Buy the Box Set Online
#Variety #News #BoyzNtheHood #CriterionCollection #JohnSingleton -
I watched this because I have no internet connection this evening. Technicians are investigating, apparently. So, it was time to dip into the Blu-Rays on my shelf.
Louis Malle’s first film, shot in late-‘50s Paris, starring Jean Moreau in an incredible performance, with a score by #MilesDavis, a Mercedes 300SL W198 “Gullwing,” and an interrogation scene which is nothing but three people with jet black surroundings and heavy top light… CAN IT GET ANY COOLER THAN THAT?
It’s slow and quiet, but do not let that dissuade you. Pay attention, let things unfold, and it’s only 91 minutes, for goodness sake!
It’s so good.
But those croissants M Tavernier insists on having lots more of are clearly… well, you can tell those are bad. There’s no flakiness at all! Bah. What an awful item. Go somewhere else, Julien!
Highly recommended.

I’ve meant to watch this for quite some time, because it’s
An Important Picture, and I can see why: the story is far more realistic than contemporaneous films. The adult characters are seen to be mean, short-sighted, and generally easily fooled or overcome.The young people seem to have the right attitude by today’s standards: enjoy youth while you are young! Still, you feel sad for the young hero, as his future is far from rosy, and getting away from his home life is the only option that’s logical.
Very highly recommended; especially with an eye to its time.
★★★★☆

The Criterion Collection's "Repo Man" Blu-Ray was really cheap online, so I bought a copy (having heard that the accompanying booklet was filled with great interviews, artwork, etc.)
It doesn't disappoint. Harry Dean Stanton uttering this line has always been my favorite scene in the movie.

#EuropaEuropa by #AgnieszkaHolland full #film 1990
#CriterionCollection (sorry, not subtitles available)i think the language here is Russian, so i hope Russian speakers enjoy the film. If I have time to find other languages, I'll boost it☮️
It's based on the real life story of #SolomonPerel who suppresses his Jewish heritage to avoid being murdered during the Shoah.
The #filmmaker is the same filmmaker of the new film #GreenBorder (see #DemocracyNow about the new film)

I will try to catch this at a #theater, if it's showing near me 🤞🏿

#CriterionCollection upcoming releases include three #films I highly recommend, #BlueVelvet (#DirectedBy #DavidLynch), #Bound (#directed by #LanaWachowski and #LillyWachowski), and #PicnicAtHangingRock, the creepiest non-#horror #movie I've ever seen (directed by #PeterWeir).
#Dogfight, #ToDieFor, and #LynchOz are also worth considering.
I gotta save up for the next several 50% sales.

1946 Vincent Price was kind of a snack

Feeling a little crummy now (and isolating at home), but I think worth it for the interview with a 5 1/2 year old I did last weekend to get their reaction to "The Red Balloon" for my Criterion Collection podcast The 305. Glad I have a few days off to recuperate!
A highlight:
Q: This movie was made in 1952, so that was 71 years ago! Do you know anybody that old?
A: Uhh... Wait I think Jesus maybe was that old! He's like 100, right?
Q: Gosh, I think he must be pushing two-thousand twenty-three or so by now! -

Watching the #4K #UHD #CriterionCollection disc of the #documentary, #ForAllManknd, in the available 1:85 #theatrical format (1:33 on this disc, and a regular #BluRay disc, are also available) and seeing #MissionControl just really, again, amazed me.
As a kid, it all seemed like the absolute height of technical possibility and now it all seems quaint. I mean, slide rules were still the primary tool for mathematical computation.
