The Juniper Tree is the one starring a very young Björk and it's pretty great, bleak and silent and witchy.

Yeah, I recall seeing that on VHS as a youngster. It stays with you, or at least it stayed with me.

Oh wow, they've also got Aves, Keene's short film she made after the Juniper Tree... not sure there's been any way to easily see that until now.

not VERY young! her first album was recorded when she was 11, and she had another five out as an adult by the time she made the movie (at 25)

I was trying to figure out the bundles from that list -- directed by Wyler, directed by Curtiz, starring Bette Davis -- I guess maybe a Starring Teresa Wright bundle as well?

It was filmed in 1986 (came out in 1990), so she would have been 20 or 21 at the time.

Alphaville is by far the best 60s Godard movie

flappy bird, Friday, 24 January 2020 23:42 (four years ago) link

Christ there's a ton of Godard on there, death notice?

flappy bird, Friday, 24 January 2020 23:43 (four years ago) link

was wondering if they were going to add a bunch of Schrader flicks. Light Sleeper is one of my favorite '90s noirs, he's essentially mining his own previous scripts and turning in a real brooding NYC piece with lots of high-end cocaine atmosphere and terrific performances from everyone involved.

*when rather than if, since he seems like a guy Criterion has taken an interest in a bit more lately.

would like to see LS get a nice blu-ray release, it had a DVD release years ago but it's probably not ideal.

― flappy bird

Between this, the Anna Karina retrospective at the Film Forum, and the Anna Karina retrospective on TCM, I feel like I'm drowning in Godard. I don't know where to turn because I've seen them all already. Maybe I'll check out Le petit soldat at the Film Forum, that's a relatively rare one.

I only just now noticed that they curate a selection for younger people every month.

Josh in Chicago, Saturday, 22 February 2020 16:39 (four years ago) link

one previously mentioned by me upthread -- i rewatched Light Sleeper, since the version i own is a DVD w/a 1.33:1 aspect ratio versus the 1.85:1 it was filmed in. Looks incredible, and one of those films i try to recommend to ppl a lot as a great moody '90s noir and a cut above most if not all others in the genre for its really palpable sense of urban desolation and ennui, and the deglamorized emptiness of certain corners of the high-end lifestyle. it's extremely "1992" in fashion and even w/the brooding Michael Been music, which i know turns off a lot of people but for me you just gotta commit to the experience since i think it's a pretty immersive film and one unafraid of a certain awkwardness and naked emotionality, and that includes the music. The performances are all good to incredible, w/Dafoe and Sarandon falling into the latter camp, as well as some really remarkable supporting work in a couple small key roles from Jane Adams and Victor Garber.

Anything expiring after today that I really need to see? (John Schlesinger, Lina Wertmüller, Jean-Pierre Melville, Bette Davis, William Wyler packages and a few other odds and ends)

Most of the films expiring in a few hours appeared in September, according to post upthread.

Melville's Le Cercle Rouge and le douls are great crime flics.

I skipped Jerichow. Of the ones I've seen, I'd rank Phoenix and Transit > Barbara >>>> Yella. I give Phoenix extra points for audacity -- the plot sounds totally ridiculous if I say it out loud, but he pulls it off.

Mackenna's Gold is one of the worst movies I've seen on a Criterion-affiliated streamer. What a load of crap.

Miami weisse (WmC), Tuesday, 3 March 2020 04:20 (four years ago) link

Mackenna's Gold was and remains a very successful film in India.[11] In India it remained the top Hollywood grosser in history until blockbusters like Jurassic Park and Titanic came along. Even worldwide hits such as Jaws and Star Wars would not make as much money in India as Mackenna's Gold did. The film went through countless re-runs until well into the 1980s and could be seen in cinema halls across India, including small venues in the medium-size towns of North and South India.[11]

"the anderson tapes" is "...and introducing christopher walken" and i started cracking up because literally his first line in the movie is already the most christopher walken line-reading: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xuDmxYJ1AM&feature=youtu.be

also the quincy jones scores are insane

This expanded line-up includes Phil Karlson's THE BROTHERS RICO, possibly the best gangster movie of the 1950s, an absolutely devastating performance by Richard Conte. https://t.co/GYXiGPYiJY
