Personally I would rate
Le Cercle Rouge below
Samourai &
Shadows. What surprised me was
Leon Morin. I knew going in it was mostly a dialog driven film and expected to be bored stiff. Maybe my expectations were so low it was bound to exceed them, but I thoroughly enjoyed it and never found it boring.
Speaking of French Directors I'm a big fan of Clouzot. Would love to see Criterion release
The Murderer lives at 21. I may have to order the MoC version if not. Also if StudioCanal/Lionsgate is never going to release The Raven (
Le Corbeau) it would be nice if they sold the rights back to Criterion. That loss of titles still makes me mad
