The only problems with the Bergman set are Scenes from a Marriage and Fanny and Alexander miniseries cuts desperately needing to be split across two discs, along with an older master of Smiles being used. Nothing unwatchable, but they at least learned a bit for the Varda and Fellini boxes not cramming too much. With that said, if you have to pick one “big box” the complete Varda might be my favorite overall. Bergman is full of greats, but not a single low point for Varda.

There is now an 8th, CGI samurai who keeps saying things like, "Well THAT just happened".

Went with... Uncut Gems 4K A Hard Day's Night 4K The Piano 4K The Red Shoes 4K (All upgrades for me except The Piano, which I haven't seen) Ministry of Fear - been collecting Fritz Lang films since I've liked nearly all his stuff Sullivan's Travels - Realized I didn't own this one yet, even with all the other Sturges comedies I've picked up Design for Living - Can't go wrong with more Lubitsch Love Affair - I love it when Criterion rescues public domain hell titles and I can't turn down a Leo McCarey romcom

I picked up the Piano a month ago. Solid movie and a really good looking 4k release. There is a lot of blueness too it, but in the commentary Campion talks about how this is intended ("underwater feeling"). She mentions how some production people were complaining about some of the initial film at first but eventually trusted her and the dp on the look.

I hope it's a sign that Criterion's trying to do a Johnnie To collection in the vein of their John Waters stuff. I would love to get a good Blu Ray copy of The Mission.

Holy poo poo. I was kind of hoping that Throw Down might mean we would get this but I didn't think it would actually happen. I've seen it so many times in lovely transfers, I'm not sure I'm going to be able to fathom a good one

I've never seen Shaft but I did watch a documentary on Gordon Parks recently ("A Choice of Weapons") and he was a true renaissance man and basically the inspiration for Shaft himself. Definitely worth checking out.

I rewatched Shaft recently and it's great. Criterion edition has some sick extras too, including a new featurette with Walter Moseley about black detective stories plus the sequel Shaft's Big Score. And that Bill Sienkiewicz cover is awesome.

It's disappointing that The Tales of Hoffmann isn't a UHD, but maybe sales of The Red Shoes weren't what they hoped to be or even the DVD wasn't a big seller. Still going to grab that, the Shaft UHD, and Pink Flamingos.

I really wish I had picked up the signed giclee of his Robinson Crusoe on Mars art they had in their store for a while. I always loved the cover but just saw the movie last year and thought it was great.

Memories of Murder was great. High recommendation. Being aware of the change in color made it hard to ignore. Definitely very… green. At the same time, I felt like it accommodated the film well.
