  • I share my thoughts on the Criterion Collection 4K edition of the 1960 Michael Powell film Peeping Tom starring Carl Boehm, Anna Massey, Moira Shearer, and Maxime Audley. This is an upgrade of spine 58 in the collection. Enjoy!

    I think Powell was years ahead of the time when he made this film, now we can fully appreciate it, although it was criticised heavily at the time, he was brave to follow his convictions.

      Powell was ahead of his time for sure, Steve. Cheers!

    Great review! I'm new to your channel, so looking forward to checking out your reviews :) glad Criterion have re-released this in the US and that this once controversial thriller is getting more attention. Crazy to think it came out a few months (certainly here in the UK) before Psycho! It was very prescient and anticipated certainly today's RUclips/Tiktok culture. Interestingly, people often mention that it ruined Powell's career, this isn't strictly true but the film also had a lasting impact on leading man Carl Boehm's career.

      Becca, so glad to hear you enjoyed the review and welcome to the channel and this community of film lovers in this little corner of RUclips! I was very impressed with this release from Criterion and the quality of the restoration. Thanks for watching and welcome!

    I can’t wait to get this one on 4K. I had it on VHS , then the Criterion DVD. I’m sure the Technicolor will look incredible in 4k.

      Totally agree, Archie! Peeping Tom was a great discovery for me as well this year. So good.

    Thanks James. Something about owning those early spines in the best quality possible is worth the price of admission alone. Sad how critics can end a filmmakers career even someone who has directed amazing films in the past.

      So true. Glad to see that in recent years the film has gotten the well deserved recognition. Thanks for watching, F V!

    Amazing review James can’t wait to watch it on 4k. Hope they make a 4k upgrade on A Matter of Life and Death.

      Glad you enjoyed the review, Jason! Yes, the more of these films on 4K with great restorations the better.

    I've seen Black Narcissus on The Criterion Channel and was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it. And luckily for me Peeping Tom currently streaming on the channel, will watch soon and if I like it I'm buying during July sale. Thanks for the review James.

      I've got the same, it's a nice edition :) I think there's very little between them, save for maybe one or two extras.
