A few years ago I only had 2 Criterions. Today, my collection stands at 181 releases, all Blu-rays, with box sets included and each one representing one of release. My most recent addition is WIM WENDERS: THE ROAD TRILOGY. I am one of those who wishes they would get on the 4K train like several of the other boutique labels have.

Minor correction but Thin Blue Line is about a wrongful prosecution of an innocence that man accused of murder, not about a police killing.

I'm more of a film noir guy. Some of my favorite film noir movies in my Criterion Collection are: "The Killing" (#575), "The Killers" (#176), "Night and the City" (#274), "Asphalt Jungle" (#847), "Detour" (#966), "Kiss Me Deadly" (#568), "Leave Her to Heaven" (#1020) *If you liked "Fatal Attraction" then you'll love this original version, "Sweet Smell of Success" (#555), "Brute Force" (383), "Ace in the Hole" (#396), "Gilda" (#795), and "In A Lonely Place" (# 810). I'm hoping Criterion puts out more film noir in the future, but this list is a good start to that genre of films.

Great collection- I recommend double indemnity on 4k- beautiful print

Nothing from Wong Kar Wai? Chungking Express is one of my all time favorite movies, and I picked up the World of Wong Kar Wai box set as soon as preorders were available. Great collection though!

Fun fact: Chungking Express, now OOP, was the very first Blu-ray from Criterion. It was right after the format war ended and just as the final HD-DVDs were trickling out of other studios. IIRC Chungking Express was released in December of 2008. Having never owned an actual Blu from Criterion (I bought Videodrome on DVD by mistake and got the DVDs of The Killing/Killer’s Kiss, Dr. Strangelove, and Something Wild from my library that doesn’t have Blu-rays, I wonder if Criterion had some rusty earlier releases like the other studios had.

Beautiful collection, I've only got 4 criterion releases myself but they're some of the best blu rays I own. I love the Godzilla release with the pop up Godzilla on the spine

There aren't even 100 films that i would consider a favorite because I'd only own a hardcover if it's a favorite of mine. Then again I'm fairly young for a cinephile and there's a whole world of cinema to explore.

Come and See is a very dark and gritty film. I don't have a problem watching Schindler's List multiple times, I could only watch Come and See once.

Love this! I have just three Criterions in my collection. • 'Silence of the Lambs' - which I think is a great transfer. Especially when compared to the old Blu-ray. • 'The Game', - and I agree with you, it needs more love 'cause not enough people talk, or know about it. The transfer is beautiful. I also have the hardback book UK version from Arrow. The first Blu-ray was garbage. • 'The Breakfast Club' -, again, I think the transfer was brilliant, and the old VHS rip of deleted scenes from the film was a great touch!

I to have nearly 100 Criterion titles... but I sort it by year.

Have you checked out Portrait of a Lady on Fire?! I personally think it’s a great film and currently it’s on Amazon for buy 3 for the price of 2!

Good content, thank you. Maybe for future videos, I would have liked one or two sentences about the extras each film came with. I know the Criterion boutique promise of quality extras but some of their products are more packed than others; I'm simply asking you to point out which of their discs come with superior extras as opposed to the lighter ones. Thanks again for your channel, you do good work.

Fantastic collection - looking forward to these upcoming label-oriented videos. Recommend taking Todd E Walnuts’ approach to these boutique label vids. He’s great at it. Re these boutique labels, I’ve been quite impressed by Imprint (Breakdown is terrific) and Grindhouse Cinema (their new release of The Swimmer is sublime). Oh, and Straw Dogs is brutal. Dustin Hoffman is terrific in that one.

Now this is a great review. I reckon.... (fades out)

Nice collection Jeff! Im slightly disappointed that you dont have any original pressings/ standard first editions. :P I started collecting before we had blu rays so i have a few originals that i assume are harder to find.

What a great collection. Thanks for posting this. I have a question about "Nashville," which Paramount is going to release in August as part of its Paramount Presents line. The August release will include a new 4K restoration on Blu-ray, which would be an upgrade from Criterion's 2k restoration. I wonder how much difference you think that would make? I trust your insights into the quality of various transfers so I would love to hear your thoughts.

My own Criterion collection is growing. Btw, my Marantz SR-6005 A/V receiver is dying. Any suggestions for a replacement? Obviously, I want to upgrade to Dolby Atmos.

You’re lucky to have Nashville and Don’t Look Now in your Collection. Those recently went out of print. I was able to get a copy of Don’t Look Now back in March 2020. I was going to get Nashville eventually, but unfortunately it went out of print. Supposedly, Paramount is going to re-release the movie on Blu Ray in August. But I’m not sure if I should get it or wait until the movie goes back to print in Criterion, because I don’t want to blind buy and have the quality of the Blu Ray not be up to par.

They are the first boutique label. They invented the commentary track and special features. For the most part anything they release is going to be the best release of that movie. Me thing I love about them is that they don’t do a limited edition release model like other boutiques have to. This means that you don’t have to hurry to buy a movie as soon as it releases.

I'm surprised you don't have any of the Harold Lloyd films or the Cameraman with Buster Keaton

House (Hausu) is one of my favorites and one of the first Criterion releases i bought! David Lynch and David Cronenberg have directed some of the best horror/arthouse movies i've seen.

Very impressive collection. You must have collecting for a long time. You should invite your friends over to pick movies from your closet just like the real criterion closet

Jeff, appreciate your interest is the Criterion Blu-ray format but you should invest in a copy of the Criterion book called 'Criterion Designs' as it has artwork, test drawings, back stories and a whole lot more for titles up to 2014. There's also a neat few pages at the end of the book dealing with the artwork on Criterion laserdisc jackets and DVD covers.

I noticed you didn’t have two great Deborah Kerr films on Criterion, the first is Jack Clayton’s 1961 film “The Innocents” a great ghost story that still gives me chills. Second is Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger’s 1947 “Black Narcissus” a beautifully photographed psychological drama about a group of nuns

Curious case of benjamin...the only one without a criterion number on the bluray case?

Great video. Definitely found some titles of interest. The one criterion movie I was hoping you'd have is Time Bandits. I love that film. It's also directed by Terry Gilliam. Unfortunately I believe it's out of print as well. How do feel about that film?

Is there a reason to keep the stand alone release of Godzilla after you have the collection?

I love criterion collection! Great collection! Lots of wonderful films I loved and some titles have been on my radar for quite some time but havent picked it up yet.

Great video. A lot of good criterion movies. I have a couple Harold & Maude one of the best movies ive seen great cat Stevens score. Gimme shelter the rolling stones about the tragedy that happened at the altamont speedway in December 1969 great movie. Just got fast times at ridgemont high from criterion and its the first time its seen in its original uncut version and a tv cut with 5 minutes extra footage. Theatrical cut is 90 minutes. Tv cut is 95 minutes. I still want to get the bruce lee set, beyond the valley of the dolls, and many more.

I notice you cut away often when you started talking more in depth about certain movies. Is there a longer/less edited video? I'd love to hear your take on some of these.

I found the Arrow Blu Ray of Thief to be better than the Criterion, the grain on the picture I found to be more natural, also the extras easily are better. I’ve also got Blow Out, Videodrome, Dressed To Kill, The Manchurian Candidate, Diaboliques on Arrow Blu Ray. I’ve also got M on Masters of Cinema, I’ve upgraded Don’t Look Now to the Studiocanal 4K, I also have The Red Circle (Le Cercle Rouge) which I too have upgraded to 4K from Studiocanal. I was also lucky enough to purchase the Criterion edition of The Third Man... however the titles I strongly advice you seek out are... Cul De Sac, Tess (Polanski) Notorious, The Man Who Knew Too Much (Hitchcock) Barry Lyndon, The Killing (Kubrick) Le Samourai, Army of Shadows, Le Cercle Rouge (Melville) Mind you The Red Circle is already available on 4K Yojimbo, Sanjuro, Rashomon, Ikru (Kurosawa) Shallow Grave, Heaven’s Gate, Mishima, Tootsie, Dead Man, Personal Shopper, The Hit, Safety Last, Some Like It Hot, The American Friend to name a few. As for boxset... strongly recommend The Lone Wolf and Cub boxset. If you love Lady Vengeance... then Lone Wolf ans Cub is very much worth seeking out.

Great video I have not seen a lot of those movies. I'm embarrassed to say I've never seen Seven Sanaurai I've always wanted to just never have. I'm a huge Godzilla fan so I do have The Showa collection and all the Charlie Chaplin releases. I love all of Chaplins work brilliant filmmaker and all around moviemaking artist. Same with Buster Keaton. I gave a fee other Criterion ones I have are Jackie Chan's Super Cop 1 & 2,The Bruce Lee collection,Night of the Living Dead,The Irishman and War of the Worlds .

The transfer is typically overviewed by directors or cinematographers who worked on the movies. They also contain nice booklets/covers and things like that. Some get better special features, some are only released on criterion. Personally, unless you’re big on film and want to see how things got made and have best quality, you’re better with normal blu rays due to the price. I only get criterion’s on personal favorites of mine
