Blu-ray Forum - Criterion Collection Discussion

My least favorite (while still loving it) from that list would be The 400 Blows. I love M and I'm a huge, huge Terry Malick fanboy. I think Days of Heaven is the most beautifully shot film of all-time.

Plus, if you drop The 400 Blows off, you'll have a 3 films, all from different eras and places in the world. Not that there is ever too much French New Wave, but diversity is always a good thing, too.

Thanks for the help. M might not have been there last night. If that is the case my decision on which three to get will be much easier. :)

No problem. Haha, ya, that would make it easier. I have no self-control and hate making decisions like that, so I would end up getting all 4.

I'm glad I only have three 25% coupons left, otherwise I would probably get all four.

I'm hoping that M is there because I've been meaning to see it for so long.

I personally would drop Days of Heaven. While it is indeed a beautifully shot film, I don't find it nearly as engaging as the others.

Replace Days of Heaven! Get Vivre sa vie, M, and 400 Blows. Don't let anyone tell you different.

Yes, it is a glued-on sheet, much like what they do for most/all(?) digibooks. I don't know why though; I preferred the glued-on sheet for being a little more attractive, but it ain't no thing.

I don't remember any other Criterion being like this.

I just placed it underneath where the disc sits.

Can you use this link?

http://www.barnesandnoble.com/library

(redirects to http://btob.barnesandnoble.com/index.asp?r=1&btob=y )

It's 10% plus free shipping...... obviously you wouldn't be able to reap the benefits of the Free-Shipping part.

It's far from just a cinematography film.
