    Nice pickups. I managed to get through this B&N sale without spending any money. However, I did pick up Peeping Tom a while ago when there was a 30% off sale. The new Wim Venders film looks interesting. I remember going to see Paris is Burning when it played in theaters, and I didn't know it had been released on Criterion. I used to go to drag shows back in my lost youth of the 1970s and knew some drag queens as personal friends. It's fun entertainment for adults, and there are a lot of very talented, creative people involved in it. My interest in that culture just sort of dried up after a while. I also remember going to see Hollywood Shuffle and it's a really good film.

      @grey1951 Thanks, Mike! Glad you picked up Peeping Tom, it's incredible! And glad you had experiences back in the 70s around people who deserve to have fun and be themselves. Cheers, pal!

    The first half of the sale I picked up, Peeping Tom & Le Samouraï. For the last half of the sale I got, Farewell My Concubine & Risky Business. Sadly, I have to forgo the next Criterion sale in November because I need to save my money for the Columbia Classic Volume 5 Box Set that comes out on October 1st. Hopefully the price will come down before my FOMO goes up after January! BTW…Hedwig and the Angry Inch is fantastic! That film pushed John Cameron Mitchell to the top of my favorite Diva list.

      Great pickups, Mark! The fomo is starting to become quite the challenge, honestly. It was nice not paying attention for the first half of the year 😅 Cheers pal!

    Still waiting on my order of Perfect Days! I did go to a physical store yesterday too. My final CC pickup was Double Indemnity, and I also picked up Mother (2009), Alfredo Garcia and Graveyard of Honor (2002) all on dvd 😊 All blind buys

      My next sale pickups will likely be Raging Bull, Pat Garrett, Ghost Dog and 12 Angry Men. Might also upgrade my dvd of Miller’s Crossing

    Superb haul video Nathan 😀🍿🎸🎶 ‘Anatomy Of A Fall’ is fantastic; one of the best of 2023! ‘Perfect Days’ is really good; very sweet film. I seen Warren (Goose’s Movies) showcase ‘Walker’ on his channel; definitely all more for checking out more Westerns 🤠 I definitely want to pick up ‘Night On Earth’ & ‘Happiness’ in regards to the upcoming Criterion releases 😊 Hope you have a great week Nathan 😀🍿🎸🎶

    Great video Nathan. I went yesterday for the last day of the sale and picked up a few titles including John Sayles Lone Star. I’ll be watching that one tonight.

    Very impressive haul. I thought your New Year’s resolution was to buy only two movies a month

    • @blu-rayswithnathanjones
      @blu-rayswithnathanjones  2 месяца назад

      @thomaswilke6312 Thanks, Thomas! And yes, I did the first half of the year very well with only getting 2 a month, but my bug came back and it's been fun on how I'm tackling the collection now. I talk about the change in my film journey videos. Appreciate you being here!

    Excellent pickups! I really appreciate what you said when talking about Paris Is Burning. Unfortunately, along with the trans community's increased visibility in recent years, there's been an increase in hate towards them. I wish more people would react with love and empathy instead of suspicion and hatred when encountering people who are different in some way to them. Or just, you know, leave people alone and let them live their lives. *Anyway*, great to also see you pick up Bound, one of my all-time favorite movies, and Perfect Days, one of my favorites from last year. Both are fantastic.

    • @blu-rayswithnathanjones
      @blu-rayswithnathanjones  2 месяца назад +1

      @r1133 Freakin right? Why can't people just leave people alone, let alone just be happy there's so many in this world that are different from us. Sad to see fear grip that way. Looking forward to Bound. Cheers, Roni!
