A Criterion Collection wants list!

Barnes & Noble recently announced that they are offering 50% off all Criterion Collection movies! Here are my top five wants:

Sorcerer, directed by William Friedkin (year: 1977, Spine Number 1267). and starring Roy Scheider and Bruno Cremer. I watched this earlier this year, and I wasn’t expecting much from it. However, there were moments in the movie where I was literally yelling at the screen.

Basquiat, directed by Julian Schnabel (year: 1996, Spine # 1260). Starring Jeffrey Wright and David Bowie. I watched this movie after reading one of my favorite books, “Widow Basquiat: A Love Story” by Jennifer Clement:

Ugetsu, directed by Kenji Mizoguchi (year: 1953, Spine number 309). Starring Masayuki Mori. This movie is haunting, and it feels as though you are part of the movie.

Fiend Without A Face Directed by Arthur Crabtree (Year: 1958, Spine Number: 92). I am a massive fan of 1950s Sci-Fi movies and anything that could conquer the masses in a weird form.

Jean de Florette/ Manon of the Spring: Two Films by Claude Berri. (year: 1986, Spine: 1257). This would be a blind buy for me. I have never watched any of Claude Berri’s films, but they look interesting, and I am a fan of Gerard Depardieu’s early work.
