https://www.theonion.com/nation-unable-to-quell-insatiable-appetite-for-all-thin-1846732044

xp That'll be one of the featured collections, I'm sure. BTW, I'm guessing Kubrick's Killer's Kiss will be on the channel as well, as a supplement for The Killing, since it's included on the physical release.

"the ghost and mrs. muir" is a weird cultural relic. a woman has a love affair with the ghost of a sea captain. not a metaphor for anything.

I remember finding that surprisingly charming and likeable but it's been a while

I don't know this one; worth watching?

I know there's no necessary connection, but a Criterion release of Rockers would be amazing

Have been watching all the French New Wave films and all the French New Wave shorts. Coming to the realization that the main subject of the New Wave was young men trying to bed flighty or indifferent young women.

Bundles/features/departments/etc for April: https://criterioncast.com/column/calendar/criterion-channel/april-2022-programming-on-the-criterion-channel-announced

Guru Dutt? My prayers have been answered! Maybe too late though.

Delphine Seyrig? Be still my beating heart.

watched Hamaguchi's Asako I & II on the Criterion Channel since it will be discontinued at the end of April. It is a lovely film

"what a filthy river"

"but - it's beautiful"

need to do that as well. That and Happy Hour too I think. Also the Iranian film The Separation.

Most if not all the Sirk they have.

Happy Hour is 5 1/2 hours long, I have it on 2 dvds, watched it in segments, really loved it

A Separation is fantastic and also worth watching

Thanks. Asako I & II is also on MUBI with no hint of it going away (although maybe the alert will happen in a few days who knows) so maybe I should finally sit down and watch Happy Hour first.

Just looked at the MUBI expiry list *sigh*

The Separation was great, I remember
Hmm I should jump on Asako before it goes, i don't have Mubi

Yay for Le Navire Night (Duras). I skipped seeing it in the theatre because of Covid.

Finally got a foothold into Happy Hour.

Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy was a great film, that dude's had an annus mirabilis last year for sure.

Yeah, it is a lovely film.

Gotta say the app doesn’t do a good job of remembering my place.

In the Happy Hour home stretch. One thing I gotta say is there are so many great reaction shots of the ladies, especially during and after the reading.

And just now I watched A Separation.

Maybe some Guru Dutt next

Terence Davies, nice. Definitely also want to check out Chameleon Street, the Karen Dalton and free jazz docs, and 'Round Midnight.

That is a pride month and a half

I was astonished for a split second when I read “The Clock”…

I like that they seem to be continuously adding things to the Beyond Blaxploitation collection

seeing Body Heat I briefly wondered if they were actually doing my You Must Remember This tie-in idea in time to coincide with possibly the least likely series for them to do that with

Pre-code Paramount is a treat

Never seen any Davies, looking forward to that. And happily watch Foreign Affair, my favourite Wilder movie, yet again

It's a good one, even though the lead is kind of weird, as discussed in the Cameron Crowe book.
