The Best Films I Watched In November
You watched some great films in July! I watched Day Of The Outlaw last week and agree with your comments. The dance scene was intense to say the least. I was actually disappointed with Dr. No the last time I watched it. The dragon scene you mentioned really irritated me as they could have easily got away without anyone dying. Great The Raid edition you have there. Its an excellent film. The sequel is equally great too. The Station Agent is one of my favourites. It's so underrated and deserves much more recognition. I'm always recommending it to people. I've been desperate for a bluray release for ages.
Thanks so much for watching! My goodness that dance scene. The sober nature of it gave it such an unexpected edge. You wrote a great review on Insta! Ah that's a shame about Dr No. I know exactly what you mean though. If Quarrel had to die, I felt like it should have been a much more meaningful as it did feel a bit unneccessary in that particular scene. I can't say I was a fan of the entire dragon bit at all really, except in showing that Bond wasn't perfect and made mistakes, but I guess the 60s nature of it charmed me somewhat. Ah I'm so glad to hear you also love the Station Agent! I couldn't agree more. It feels like a perfect fit for Criterion, Imprint, Radiance, or even Eureka, and definitely deserves a great boutique release, and with such a great cast, would surely sell well. Here's hoping!
@@goosesmovies Station Agent absolutely deserves a boutique release. Have you seen Julia starring Tilda Swinton. That needs a nice Blu-ray release too. She's incredible in it.
I've not even heard of it! I'll definitely track it down though, I'm a big fan of Tild Swinton. Thanks for the recommendation!
very interesting to hear your thoughts on these films which I've never heard of but will definitely be having a look for. Great series you've started looking forward to the next one 👍
Thanks so much for watching! If you can track them down, they are definitely worth checking out. There's a lot of fun to be had with them. I've got lots of ideas for more of these, so hopefully some good ones to come in the future 😀
Hey Warren; great video mate 😀🍿🎸🎶 I seen ‘Love Jones’ and thought it was really good; very sweet little film 😊 That film ‘The Wood’ sounds good TBF; I bet I be getting on the dance floor with some dance moves when I’m out on the drink lol 😂🤣 That film you talked about sounds pretty ‘Dope’ 👍 Great insight video to this director mate; keep up the amazing work as ever Warren 😀🍿🙌🎸🎶
Thanks Sam! If you enjoyed Love, Jones then definitely try to check out Brown Sugar if you can find it. Superb soundtrack and just a lot of fun! Haha I'm not too far away from those outrageous dance moves either 😂
Do you know if these are going to be restocked? I hope so :(
These are limited editions, so once they are sold out they are gone unfortunately. They are still in stock at Yukipalo though. The only difference will be because you're not buying from Plain Archive directly, it may not come with the Plain Archive sticker on the back.
Hi Warren, I enjoyed your thoughts on those 3 films. It's a director I'm totally blind too. I had heard of Dope but not the other 2. I will have to investigate.
Thanks so much Roy! I just came across his films randomly years ago, but they've been ones that have stuck with me. If you can find it, The Wood in particular is a great bad day cure film I think, and one that you sit back and laugh along with. Well worth checking out!
How is the image quality? A few were scared this would be an AI upscale of sorts but the Blu Ray vs 4K Blu Ray comparison shots Plain Archive put out showed a vast improvement and it didn’t feel electronic or egregious.
Hello, thanks so much for watching! I'm not the best person to ask unfortunately as my knowledge in this area is limited. From what I can see, the image is significantly and noticeably 'crisper' in comparison to my Curzon bluray. The bluray's grain looks quite fine as it is, and in the scenes I compared, it does still look present on the 4K disc, but it's hard to notice at times, so I don't know if it's just because it was so fine to begin with or if something was done to the image. Hopefully DVDBeaver will review the disc, as I think they are the standouts for discussing image quality and transfers.
I've only discovered Petzold few weeks ago and I've already seen 5 of his movies (this doesn't happen to me very often as I don't watch movies that much). Something about his movies is almost addictive, every time I finish one I feel like I want more. Undine was the first film I watched of him (so I kind of went backwards). Undine completely captured me I still think about it almost everyday, and after 5 of his movies, Undine is still my favorite. I absolutely loved that weird ethereal mystical feeling it had while still being very realistic and modern and almost boring? Undine was certainly "boring" for a supposedly "mythical creature", she still had to go to work, still had to deal with the mundanity of mortals. It was almost like Christoph's love is what gave her back her ethereal essence, it's love that gives the mundane lives magic. I loved Transit and Phoenix as well, I loved the feeling of continuity of Petzold's imagination and using the same actors helps with that. Like we're just exploring his consciousness through different stories but same essence over and over. While I also enjoyed Barbara but I didn't love it as much, for whatever reason, it didn't "touch" me as much. Afire was the last film I watched of Petzold and it was another hit. It felt much more personal and down to earth than all the other ones. If you haven't seen it yet, I recommend it. I'll probably take a long break before continuing to his earlier films. I want to return to it with a fresher mind.
What a wonderful comment, thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! I couldn't agree more, Petzold crafts these utterly compelling stories and worlds where you just want to see more, and like yourself I watched them in a very short span of time! Undine I think had a sort of magical realism to it, where the realism was particularly emphasised and as you say, the mundane came through, though with Petzold's great story telling to keep things incredibly engaging. Rogowski and Beer are a particularly potent combination I think! Ah I love that, the idea of exploring an essence in Petzold's films. It's often said that directors make one film, and then make the same over and over again throughout their careers, and I think his films definitely retain a key component which just hooks you and connects on some almost heart level. I was lucky enough to see Afire at the cinema last year and I also loved it. I picked up the Janus Contemporaries release which I can certainly recommend. Also, I watched Yella shortly after making this video, and just in case you want to watch it too, I feel like I would have liked to have known that it's actually a remake of sorts of Carnival of Souls. I wished I'd seen that original before watching Petzold's version of it because I think it would have been a richer experience.
Baffling why they never did the same with the rest of the Connery movies, like they know their audience!!!
Someone is taking a long piss in the background.
😂 it was our old little water fountain for the cats
Hi Warren. Another great video, well edited and put together with great thought and care. I love the western genre and Robert Ryan movies but actually haven’t seen Day of the Outlaw, I will rectify that soon. Thanks for highlighting it. Nice edition of Dr No and I enjoyed your comments. Yes, as the first one, it’s more scaled down and gritty. Moore’s For Your Eyes Only was the first Bond I got to see in the cinema and I loved his era but the Connery ones, with From Russia With Love perhaps now being my favourite when I would have chosen Goldfinger when younger. Great edition of The Raid, what bone crunching exhilaration that is. The Station Agent is such a delight. My sister loves Dinklage and had been encouraging me to watch it for ages, I was really pleased when I found the dvd. And I absolutely love Superman and Superman 2. My folks couldn’t afford to take us to the cinema much as kids but I still strongly remember my dad taking me to see Superman 2. Just brilliant and as you say, John Williams score grabs you right from the start.
Thanks so much Neil, I really appreciate the kind words! Ah I hope you enjoy Day of the Outlaw. It was a real surprise to me, though of course coming from the Masters of Cinema collection, I should have known it would be great. I look foward to hearing your thoughts on it! I think my watch through of the Bonds a couple years ago definitely gave me a renewed appreciation for Connery in the role. Moore definitely added a real charm to the role though I think, and you get the feeling that he was probably having a lot more fun than Connery! Ah thanks so much for bringing The Station Agent back to my attention, because it was a wonderful journey to take again. If your sister hasn't seen it, the one I mentioned I think We're Alone Now I can highly recommend, as it's a great Dinklage film. It did used to be on Netflix, though not too sure at the moment. Ah those formative cinema experiences are such a wonderful thing. Amazing how the memories continue to capture our imagination!
Nice watches, I prefer roger Moore bond, love superman and Christopher reeve is my superman, I do have a soft spot for superman 2 , have a good weekend mate 👍🏻
Thanks Stuart! Moore definitely had his moments, and has some of the most iconic Bond films that's for sure. Christopher Reeve was absolutely fantastic as Superman. I wasn't sure what to expect going in, but my goodness, he really nails it. I've just watched the Donner cut of Superman 2, so looking forward to checking out the theatrical cut at some point soon.
@@goosesmovies Terence stamp great villain as zod , kneel before zod
Hi there, love your videos. In reference to the Raid. I actually prefer Raid 2 over the original. I know a lot of people don’t because there is more talking and plot than constant fighting. I think the fights are way more brutal in 2. Be interested in what you think of Raid 2.
Thanks so much for watching and for the kind words! I haven't seen the Raid 2 for so many years that I can't really remember it very much, except for the fact that I remember loving it! I'm really hoping that Umbrella do a similar collectors edition for the Raid 2 as it would another immediate pre-order for me. After The Raid lived up to my memories and more, I'm very much looking forward to re-visiting number 2, which I'm hoping will be a similar experience.
Hi Warren it's always a much welcomed pleasant surprise when your monthly video appears on my feed. I think The Day Of The Outlaw is the only western in the Masters Of Cinema collection I'm yet to get to. I will have to blow the dust off my copy after that glowing endorsement. You can't beat Connery Bond. Well maybe his Chinese makeover wasn't the best. Take care mate.
Thanks so much Roy, that's such a lovely thing to say 😄 I think you'll really enjoy Day of the Outlaw, it's a great western with a tense story and brilliant cast. Haha yes we'll steer clear of that asian makeover, though if I remember correctly those single person helicopters were pretty cool from that film!
Great review. It is such an incredible movie.
Thank you so much! It was truly something special.
good stuff.
Nice video thank you. In Australia we have the rating on the front cover as I’ve noticed on some of my UK titles and the titles I saw in your video. Why is it there sometimes twice in the left and right corner and in different colours ? Another great video and haul thank you
Thanks so much for watching! The red one is the UK rating, (from the BBFC), and the blue one is the Irish rating, (from the IFCC). As the countries are so close together, I'm guessing it just makes sense to include both sometimes so they can be sold in either country.
Hi Warren. A good mix of titles. I enjoyed all the X Men films at the time but seem to have lost interest in them now, maybe I’ll revisit some day. I’m quite a big fan of Stanley Baker, even though I wouldn’t say he’s been great in every film. Favourites for me are Zulu (the film that introduced me to him), Yesterday’s Enemy (a Hammer war film), Robbery (Peter Yates calling card to then make Bullitt), In A French Style (acting opposite the wonderful Jean Seberg), Hell Drivers and A Prize of Arms. I do have The Criminal but yes it’s a bit lacklustre
Thanks Neil! I think with things like the X-Men type of films, interest ebbs and flows maybe more so then other genres as we are so inundated with that sort of thing these days, and it can get a bit tiresom, but I remember being plesantly surprised at how much fun I had watching these again in 2020, (despite the variance in quality). I can't believe I forgot about Zulu, it's a classic that I've never seen, and certainly need to. I picked up Robbery a month or two ago and enjoyed it quite a bit, I love a good heist film, and Baker seems to enjoy playing a cunning thief. I'm not familiar with any of the others you mention, and particularly curious to see him opposite Jean Seberg, so really appreciate the recommendations, thanks so much!
A very varied haul. I agree tnat Stanley Baker is a very underrated actor. The Criminal is not his best but some of his other films also directed by Joseph Losey are much better,in particular Accident (Studio Canal) where he is cast opposite Dirk Bogarde ,and Eve (Indicator) where he appears opposite Jeanne Moreau. A Foreign Affair is vintage Wilder,similar to his other Berlin comedy One Two Three,also released by MoC.
Thanks so much for the recommendation! I'll definitely pick up Accident. I'm keen to get more into Joseph Losey's films as well, so Baker and Losey together tick both boxes for me. I really enjoyed Eva, though it's been about a year since I last saw it. I'm a big fan of Jeanne Moreau as well, so it's one I need to re-visit. Glad to hear A Foreign Affair is a good one! I've had One Two Three sat on my shelf unwatched for a while now, so perhaps I'll do a Wilder double feature soon. Thanks so much for watching!
The covers for each film are amazing. Thats a plus over the criterion box.
Hello Warren great video and fantastic haul. The thing I couldn't abide with on The Old Man and the Sea was that voice over. It was like listening to an audio book. I have all the Billy Wilder Eureka releases. There are quite a few. A Foreign Affair while not top tier Wilder is an entertaining romp. I will watch anything with Marlene in.
Thanks Roy! Ah yes I know what you mean. I didn't mind it too much, but I just felt like the film should have been better. I think the original story was just a novella, and making a feature length film out of that just didn't quite translate. Ah wonderul, I'm just 2 films away now myself from having all Eureka's Billy Wilder, but unfortunately one of them is Fedora which I know is long OOP. I'm exactly the same, anything with Marlene Dietrich in, I'll happily give a watch!
A great mix of titles and editions. Its definitely a great time for sales lately and now HMV has a 50% off on selective titles tho some good BFI titles if you have checked it out already.
Thanks Al! I couldn't agree more, my wallet is hurting, but it's hard to complain as there are some fantastic deals. I just saw the HMV sale today, and I might well have to pick up a couple. I've had my eye on Piccadilly from the BFI for a while now! Hope you've been able to pick up some great stuff too!
Journey to the West is a fantastic and one of the best films I've seen this century. Shop around the corner is truly great but for some reason criminally underrated. Thanks for the mention. That's quite a haul sir.
Ah I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed Journey to the West so much! I'll make sure to get to it soon. Definitely looking forward to Shop Around the Corner as well. I picked up Broken Lullaby in the last Indicator sale, so I've got a couple Lubitsch films to enjoy. Thanks so much for watching Ronin!
Fantastic haul Warren 😀🍿🙌🎸🎶 Some amazing titles here; I definitely want to get onto checking out ‘River’ as goes to ‘Two Minutes Beyond Infinite’ aswell 😀 Loving the X-Men steelbook mate; I am still yet to check out ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ 😎 Love the artwork on those Vinegar Syndrome side label titles; brilliant stuff mate 😀👌 ‘Trainspotting’ is a 5/5 film for me; love the Sequel too! ‘Memories Of Murder’ is my second fav Bong Joon-Ho film after ‘Parasite’; awesome director 😎 I just ordered ‘Mississippi Mermaid’ yesterday mate as well as two of the Radiance titles that came out 29th July 😀 I just ordered 5 x Signal One titles after watching Nige Rockgod getting the word about that sale 😊👍 ‘Sound Of Metal’ is fantastic Warren; I somewhat regret not getting the 4K Criterion when I was in NYC; I really hope it comes to town over here aswell man; definitely deserves a U.K release indeed does the Criterion edition 👌 ‘The Raid’ is a great film mate; need to check out the sequel; I recently rewatched ‘Blue Velvet’ 💙 Another 5/5 for me and my fav David Lynch film 😀 Hope you having a great weekend Warren and keep up the fantastic work as ever my friend 🙌
Thanks Sam! River was a lot of fun, I think you'll really enjoy it and definitely pick up Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes if you can, both are quite similar, but there is a lot of joy packed into them. My first experience with those Vinegar Syndrome partner label releases, and I'm really impressed. Of course they are the usual thinner American bluray cases, but they are all really nice, and the slipcovers have an interesting texture to them! Oh mate, I feel like I haven't made the most of the Signal One sale so I might go back for more. Some fantastic deals. Glad you've picked up a few! Looking forward to seeing what Radiance titles you picked up too. I haven't re-watched The Raid 2 yet, but I remember it being just as good. I really hope Umbrella release the second one so I can have them both together. Action done to perfection! Have a great weekend too Sam!
Such an inviting range and depth of filmmaking in this haul. Picked a few similar titles myself in the past few months. I hope you get as much out of Long Arm of the Law as I did. Guerrilla film making at its best. The copy of the Taid from Umbrella is even more impressive on your table than the website photos. Enjoy!
Thanks Chris! Very much looking forward to the Long Arm of the Law films. I'd never heard of them before I saw you talking about them, so really glad I can finally check them out. I can hugely recommend Umbrella's edition of The Raid. Expensive but not overly pricey, and it is an absolute behemoth! Looking forward to your next watchlist video to see what you've been picking up and watching!
Open range is fantastic the end shootout seemed very realistic, yeah i like the original xmen films 👍🏻 nice pickups mate 👍🏻
Looking forward to re-visiting Open Range after what must be close to 20 years since I last saw it, so glad to hear it's one you enjoy as well. Thanks for watching Stuart!
Also steelbook films can get easily scratched and you,ve wasted £40
No as steelbooks are awaste of money. Hell even som holographic film slips with the front cover are still better than steelbooks. Such as Independence day or ID4 Ghost Ship 98 and Mirror horror film. Ordinairy cardboard slips are better/cheaper
Hi! This box set contains any english subtitles? Sdh or normal? Thanks
Hello, unfortunately it doesn't. All the films are in English, but sadly there are no subtitles in any language on any of the discs.
Thanks for making this video. I'm thinking of getting the collection. Are all the films in the boxset restored or just an average image quality? Cheers! :-)
No problem at all, I hope you found it useful! It's been a while since I watched all these, but I've just gone through the included booklet again and all the films use the 2013 restorations, except Les Vacances de Monsieur Hulot which uses a restoration from 2009. As I recall, most of them looked really good to me.
Fantastic round up video of the original 6 ST films Warren; I’m having such a ball with these movies; some are better than others; looking forward to get to the rest; it’s ‘The Undiscovered Journey’ I get to next 😀👍
Hi Warren. I really want to check out The Beast now. It looks fascinating. George Mackay is great. Captain Fantastic is also very good. I do like my Noir and don't own any of those Colombia sets. I'll have to rectify that in the next sale.
Hey Roy, I can highly reccommend The Beast. A really mind bending tale that keeps you off balance throughout. I definitely need to check out Captain Fantastic. It's been on my mind recently with Viggo Mortensen releasing a new film, and I'm curious to see more from George Mackay now too. Ah I think a few of the boxsets are sold out now unfortunately, but Indicator has put out standard editions of the individual films so you can just get the best ones without the duds, as there are few in them that are a bit naff.
Not seen any of these films mate 🎥 good video
Thanks for watching Stewart, all definitely recommended watches!
Always enjoy these vids, great recommendations for me. Definitely going to hunt down Our Little Sister for more Kore-Eda just picked up his family values release on Arrow. The Beast sound interesting Seydoux is definitely one of the best actors of this generation so versatile. MacKay is also have enjoyed in everything ive seen him in tho only 1917 & Captain Fantastic. Look forward to the next vid, have a good weekend mate 👍🏻
Thanks so much Al! The more I see from Kore-eda the more I'm amazed by his films. He's really something special. Nice get on the family values set! I've only got one so far from that trio, so definitely need to get hold of the other two. (I'm gutted that I let that lovely BFI boxset slip through my fingers.) I can highly recommend The Beast. Very strange and disorienting, but riveting stuff. Ah I still need to see Captain Fantastic. With Viggo Mortensen putting out a new film, it reminded of it and I definitely need to check it out. Hope you have a good weekend too!
Enjoyed the video! (and subscribed!). I was thinking of getting this set (except on DVD), but I do have all the films except the "Live Human" documentary one. However, I read something somewhere implying there is director commentary but it wasn't clear if that was just on one or multiple films. Could you let me know? (And also, does it have English subtitles for the commentary?). Also, how do the other special features seem? Thanks very much!
Thanks so much! It says on the back of the slipcover that there is a director's commentary on 'A Pigeon Sat on a Branch', and 'You, The Living'. However, after checking, it seems like there are no special features on 'A Pigeon sat on a Branch' at all, despite them being listed which I find utterly baffling and disappointing. I checked 'You, The Living' and there is a commentary track available with English subs for it. I'd say the special features listed are fairly light, but I'll have to check as I go through them as to which ones are even actually included!
@@goosesmovies Thanks a lot for the info! You're right, that's disappointing they couldn't have come up with more special features, and having nothing at all for "A Pigeon Sat On A Branch" is surprising. Hopefully what there is for the others makes it worthwhile at least. I'm still really tempted to get it because haven't been able to find the "Live Human" documentary anywhere else and really wanted that, but it's too bad there isn't something more on the set for those of us who already have the other films. Such an amazing director though, and I'm really interested to see that documentary. Hope you enjoy the set!
Brilliant Video. Looking forward to the next one. Keep them coming
Great comments, Warren. Three terrific films and she deserved her recognition for them. On a Fargo note, have you seen Kumiko The Treasure Hunter, that’s a really interesting one that references the movie as part of its plot. And I really hope Chloe Zhao will get to make more reality based dramas. Nomadland was fascinating and I actually just picked up a copy of The Rider, which also was really good.
Thanks so much Neil! Ah I'm so glad you mentioned it, I can't believe I forgot to speak a bit about Kumiko. I watched it last year and thought it was really interesting. I love that the director used completey different crews for the sections shot in Japan and in the US so that the film has that real shift to it. Ah fantastic, I'm really keen to see The Rider so glad to hear that it's a good one. I'm hoping it's an easy one to track down.
I need to pickup all 3 i dont own any of them mate 💿💿💿👈🏻👌🏻🎥
Well worth it if you come across some good deals. All three are superb!
Like you I have only seen 3 Billboards once and remember enjoying but do need to see it again. Fargo is incredible. For me Buscemi and Stormare make the film. Nomadland just wasn't for me. It was a real slog to get through. Some great editions there Warren 👌
Three billboards is well worth re-visiting if you come across it anywhere, it's still a powerful film and just as amusing as you'll remember too. Buscemi was so great in Fargo. He's almost maniacal, and the entire scene where he is talking non stop about the other guy not saying a word during their trip, is a classic! Ah that's a shame, if it doesn't capture you I can see why it'd be hard to get through. I'm curious to check out Chloe Zhao's other films to see how they compare.
Great watches Warren 😀🍿🎸🎶 Thanks for the shoutout buddy 🤩 I absolutely love ‘Shoplifters’; my fav film of 2018; I thought ‘Air Doll’ was a very solid film 👍 I definitely have to check out ‘Stranger Than Paradise’; always down for checking out more of Jim Jarmusch’s work; can’t wait for the Criterion of ‘Night On Earth’ on 19th August which looks to be a legit Monday for new releases 😱😍
Thanks Sam! Ah thanks for the recommendation 😄 I feel like Shoplifters might become an all time favourite as I re-visit it in the future. Stranger Than Paradise also has a Criterion, though sadly it's not a UK release yet, but Criterion seem to slowly be giving us the rest of his films, so hopefully some time soon we might get it! It's well worth your time. I'm really looking forward to picking up Night on Earth too!
I saw Fargo when I was 12 and I liked the police officer character and the town though the rest was a bit full on for me. I do have it on disc and I should rewatch it again and see how it goes as I’m sure I would appreciate it more now. Three billboards yes I agree it was brutal and I haven’t seen it since so I will give it another watch too. Nomadland is a really great movie. I really enjoyed your reviews and discussing the movies side by side. Some very interesting thoughts.
Thanks so much for watching and for the kind words! I imagine watching Fargo at 12 years old must have made quite the impression! I can certainly recommend re-visiting it, and especially after so long as it will be full of great moments you will have forgotten all about. Bolster yourself for Three Billboards! I can safely say that it packs just as much punch as the first time you see it, and I was so glad to see that Nomadland retained all the quiet beauty that I remembered too.
Hello Warren thanks. Your watch videos are always up there in my favourites. I could listen to your musings all day. Shoplifters is Incredible and as you say very moving. I've also seen and quite like Air doll. Very odd though. I have Brokers but not got onto that one yet. The Hustler is one I've has through vhs to dvd to bluray. Right up there in my favourites. You can almost taste the smoke in them pool halls. One of the most atmospheric films I've seen. The Thin Man is a series of films that's been on my watchlist for the longest time but they seem to be incredibly difficult to come across.
Ah thanks so much Roy, that's incredibly kind of you! I'd say Shoplifters is in my top 4 of the whole year so far I think. Brokers was my first Kore-eda film, and while it was definitely solid, for me it didn't quite reach the heights of these other two, though I'd like to give it another watch. I'm going to try to pick up Monster soon, and look forward to checking that one out as well. Ah I can certainly see why, my goodness I'd forgotten just how amazing The Hustler was! I totally agree, that atmosphere just emanates from the screen and you feel like your also in a dark pool hall watching the titans battle it out. Hopefully we can get a 4K of it one day! No idea why The Thin Man is so hard to come by, I had to import the warner archive edition from the US. It would have been a great one for HMV Premium to do. Warner seem to have stepped up their archive releases here though, so hopefully it'll be more accessible before too long. Thanks so much for watching!
Nice mentions, Warren. I have The Mosquito Coast on dvd and didn’t realize it’s hard to come by. I like that period in the 80s when Ford was getting more adventurous with his roles and style. I’d quite like to see the recent series of The Mosquito Coast with Justin Theroux and Melissa George but don’t have the Apple streaming service. I’ve been meaning to rewatch both The Hustler and The Color of Money, it’s been ages. Nice steelbook you picked up there. And yes, Jarmusch films are great, possibly Mystery Train still being my favourite. I have the Criterion of Stranger than Paradise . All the best
Thanks Neil! Yes I'm not sure why it's been so hard to track down, I think it's probably been about 15 years that I've been wanting to check it out, so pretty happy I finally got the chance. I'm quite keen to see Witness now, with Ford and Weir in what I think was their first collaboration. I hadn't heard of the show at all until I started trying to find the stills for the video, and came across lots of Justin Theroux. Quite keen to check it out myself as well! I can highly recommend re-visiting The Hustler, my goodness it blew my socks off. Sadly I wasn't keen on The Color of Money though. I've yet to see Mystery Train as the German set I have just has the German subs, so I'm waiting to pick up a copy with some English ones! Like yourself I think it's lots of peoples favourites of his. Thanks for watching!
@@goosesmovies Oh I love Witness. Saw that one in the cinema. It’s tremendous
Nice set. Out of those I have only seen Touchez Pas Au Grisbi and Le Trou, the latter being one I particularly love.
Im unaware of this boxset and its director nice edition though 💿👈🏻👌🏻📽️
Excellent video sir. I have the Melville and bunuel versions. I have all the featured films on separate editions so haven’t doubled up. Becker deserves more exposure as his films are wonderful. Maybe because he did different things he’s not discussed as others are.
I keep finding DVD steelbooks at thrift stores here in the netherlands. Last week I found a DVD steelbook of Sin City. I'm just gonna toss the DVD and put a 4k disk there instead - Boom! A 4k steelbook for 1/2 the price! I bought my first 4k steelbook literaly yesterday. Polar Express for 15 euro. I dont think I'll ever spend much on steelbooks. I'm an all or nothing kind of guy, and I can't go all in on steelbook collecting. I already collect vinyl, so it would bankrupt me! I'd rather just bargain hunt and occasionally get one i really want LOVE the b-roll of nature footage. please intersperse more of that into your videos!
Yes! I love Roy Andersson, and feel he's criminally underappreciated in the blu-ray community, at least as far as I'm aware. Speaking of great Curzon box-sets, that I alluded to in my comment from your Kaurismäki-video, this set (or at least the limited edition) is way up there for me. I really hope you enjoy the other films in this set, as they're nowhere near as "streamlined" and narratively driven as Swedish love story. I'd love to know your thoughts when you get around to them!
Interestingly someone else was also recently telling me that A Swedish Love Story is a bit of an outlier in his filmography, so I'm really looking forward to exploring what his style actually is. Hopefully I can make a video once I've checked these ones out. I've heard about the Pigeon film before, so particularly intrugied by that one!
Hi Warren, hope you had a good birthday. Absolutely incredible selection of films. I really need to see The Piano Teacher. As you say a very difficult but absorbing watch. Hupert is a fantastic actress.
Thanks Roy! I couldn't agree more, Huppert is one of my favourite actors. I recently got to watch Loulou which is quite an early role for her when she was only 17, and it was so interesting to see her when she was young. Definitely highly recommend The Piano Teacher, but it's a rough one, that's for sure!
Happy Birthday! Glad you were able to successfully import some cool stuff from here. Always a pleasure checking out the mix of interesting releases that you pick up and hearing you talk about them. I had a similar experience to what you were sharing about Jurassic Park recently, watched Jaws with someone who had never seen it before. Such a treat to see someone experience it for the first time.
Thanks so much for the kind words! Ah that's wonderful, I'm so glad you were able to experience that recently as well! it's such a joy to be able to share in a persons first time watch of a great film, and it's almost as much fun to watch them and their laughs and gasps as they watch!
💞Wow🤍🤍🤍🧡🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
