I'd Buy That DVD for...Somewhere in the Neighborhood of $5

Godzilla (1954) £3 from fopp (with purchase). i have a copy that was given away with the guardian a few years ago but this is the bfi version with booklet and commentary.

I can never resist those £3-with-purchase piles at the Fopp counter. Last time I got Kore-Eda's Air Doll and the time before that A Woman Under The Influence. Pretty random selection they come up with.

I got the St Etienne dvd a few years ago.

(in the same £3 deal)

Half-Price Books, $1.60 (used):

Next Stop, Greenwich Village

They also had for same price a copy of the Olive Films 3-disc edition of 1900, but it was missing the disc w/the second half of the movie, so no.

Thrift store, $3.

Far From Heaven

Also got a Mountain Goats CD for $1 (Transcendental Youth), but it has no booklet.

Went nuts at the swap meet again today, same seller, $2 each

Pecker
2001: A Space Odyssy
Exiles (not the Bunker Hill one, a French couple road trip through Algeria)

Once Upon A Time In The West (bypassed this one at a thrift store a month ago)
Cool Hand Luke

Got a new 3-CD box set of Ken Russell at the BBC for under $15 a few weeks ago. All I've seen by him are a couple of his wild late films, Altered States and Lair of the White Worm--always assumed I'd hate his famous '70s films. So obviously I just had to have this.

Tropic Thunder 2-disk edition

I love finding music DVDs at thrift stores. My best finds have been Slow Century, the Opeth Damnation/Deliverance live one, Guided by Voices' farewell gig, the NFB Leonard Cohen collection, and Chemical Brothers' Don't Think.

at a thrift store, $2.

Automatic Magnetic - no release date but it's a music/film video magazine type thing, and has Superchunk on it.

Last week at a thrift store:
Twin Peaks first and second season (definitive gold box edition, 10 disks). $7

nice

the most recent edition has gone crazy with the packaging

I had been holding out, because I really didn't think I'd ever re-watch it, but for $7 I figured I couldn't go wrong

Thrift store, $3 each (they've been open a couple weeks now, it's good to be back browsing).

Inside Llewyn Davis
Pixies - a collection from 2004, some live, some videos

Also found the Aline and R Crumb book Drawn Together for $5.

Dead Man (the Jarmusch film)
The Saddest Music in the World

$2 each today at Salvation Army.

Va Savoir (the Rivette film, sometimes there are surprises)
Tenacious D - The Complete Masterworks. I had looked at this and put it back because I'm not a huge fan, but then I found the above and decided since I'm gonna stand in line anyway I may as well get it too.

They also had a copy of Gerwig's Lady Bird, but it was just outside my scratched-ness threshold.

Went back to the same SA and got the Lady Bird, also This Is 40, and SLC Punk, for $2 ea (but they charged me $4 total because of an in-store coupon).

Also got Rushmore for $1 a week ago.

Thrif store today, 3 for $5.

Midnight In Paris
Thoroughly Modern Millie
His Girl Friday

I envy your nabbing such a cheap copy of His Girl Friday.

It appears to be a low-budget affair (Digiview Productions, 2004), but is in good condition. Found them at at an Out of the Closet thrift store.

Today at Salvation Army, $2 each

Roy Orbison live at Austin City Limits, 1982
12 Monkeys
Birth of a Nation

That copy of Lady Bird mentioned above wouldn't play on my DVD player or PC, but it did play on my work PC.

Thrift store today:

Manhattan, $2.25
Elevation 2001/U2 Live from Boston, $1.50

I'm not really a fan of U2, but it seems like an interesting package, on 2 disks. And so cheap.

Thursday at a thrift store, $1 each

The Tenant (Polansky)

Thrift store today, $2 each.
Inherent Vice

My Architect (Louis Kahn's illegitimate son's documentary)

I liked that when I saw it a few years ago.

Whenever I dream about the apocalypse these days, nickn is always in there (masked, of course) combing through discount DVD bins.

Life . . . finds a way.

Thrift store today, $1.

King Kong (original) - a 2-disk version with lots of extras.

Re-watching Altered States tonight. Bought it at a Rite Aid that's now a Walgreen's for $5 several years ago.

Went to another store today and found the Criterion Taste of Cherry. Was excited at first but when I opened it saw that it was very scratched. It was marked as being from the Torrance library and I figured if a library was getting rid of a (likely) popular film it must be unplayable.

Yesterday at a thrift store, $2 each.

Foo Fighters - Back and Forth (2011 documentary)
Rope Ladder To The Moon (a biog of Jack Bruce, from 1969 apparently)
The Avett Brothers - Live, Volume 3

Survivor, season 1
The Real World season 1
The Others (Nicole Kidman, 2-disk set)
The Loved One

Clockwatchers
Tom Lehrer Live in Copenhagen 1967
Reno 911 first season (2 disks)

Clockwatchers has been there for months, and I like the movie but it was a bit more scratched than I like, but I decided to go for it. And I have some Reno 911 but not sure if that includes season 1.

There was a flea market CD/DVD/records place I mentioned in the second post on this thread; used to go there regularly before I left Toronto. On the way to my sister's this morning, I dropped in for the first time in two years. Wasn't sure they'd still be in business; they are, but the owner is 72 now and he said they'd be closing up for good at the end of July. Besides his age, he said he had shutdowns of four and five months because of COVID (and this is a weekend-only business). Felt bad for him--probably the last record store I'll ever frequent with some regularity. (Bought a five-film Martin & Lewis DVD box for $13 today, plus a few albums.)

$3 at a thrift store today, Harold and Maude.

$3 at a thrift store yesterday, Louie, Season 1 (2 disks). No money went to LCK!

Did anyone try to stop you as you left the store?

There were some disapproving looks. And a little head shaking.

Hah. Sad but fair. I only saw the first two seasons of Louie, but they were great.
