This Savage Art

I occasionally check out the Criterion site just to salivate over what will be coming out soon. Now that I have a Blu-ray player it really takes this fetishism to another level. Admittedly, I am buying less DVDs than I have in the past even though I do have a pretty impressive collection.  But since the whole delivery system is in flux I’ll stick with Netflix, my collection and the occasional buy. I was pretty happy to see a couple of interesting choices added to their coming soon list. Resnais’ Last Year At Marienbad, a film that I haven’t seen because a good print is so hard to come by and I missed the last Film Forum run. A big surprise was Fincher’s The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Looking forward to seeing that on Blu-ray.

Now all we need is a decent version of Rocco and His Brothers.
