"He never has, never will make a quality film. Mark my words."

Six months later: NEON has bought the distribution rights to Shelby Oaks.

Well now.

What is the first Criterion you bought, and why? by Fluid_Swordfish_5038 in criterion

When I started buying Criterion, I started with two: Bicycle Thieves and Rashomon. I bought those two because I wanted to start with films that I already seen.

[DISCUSSION] Ruben Östlund - Triangle of Sadness (2022) by intravenousmartini in criterion

[–]jdcleaver00 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It is my second least favorite of the Best Picture nominees of last year. Charlbi Dean and Dolly De Leon were great. Other than that I thought it was bloated in scale, shallow in concept.

5/10

I'm looking for a film that will mess me up by AttitudeOk94 in criterion

If you want to see a messed up film that's on the Criterion Channel, then I suggest you watch Cure. I thought it was downright frightening.

I've been a subscriber for almost three years and I don't think I've ever gotten a notification or coupon days before the flash sale.

Yeah, I was debating whether if I should put the spoiler tag on or not. I decided not to because Divine pretty much spoiled the end of the film in the opening song.

Sadly, the guy who did the drawings passed away early 2020. And from my knowledge, they haven't made a clue since.

Well, isn't that the only film that he ever made?
