I'm not at all surprised by her selections because I've seen her in interviews and she's very bright. Can't go wrong with Kiarostami!

Just Godzilla vs Biollante for me from the new announcements.

She does come off a bit desperate to prove she's worthy of being there in the closet and an intellectual of sorts. The glasses are a nice touch.

“We met in the line…”… that’s so wholesome

[MifuneFan]

That's awesome. Also, being born and raised in Brooklyn (and still living here), that made me especially happy.

Literally couldn't agree less, she seemed completely genuine and true to herself. I finished it and thought "wow, that's cool, a side to her we never really get to see".

I wonder if that was a random visit from Stanton or a sign of something new brewing. Often celebrities are there to promote a new movie (or book) but I don't think he has anything to promote right now

All those years of seeing her interviewed on the Howard Stern Show as well as seeing just about every side to her, literally, have left me jaded.

Most people in there come off that way. Especially these people in the mobile closet. Also what is the point of a mobile closet if it stays in New York?

He could have been there to do an Adventures in Moviegoing or some other interview for the Channel

I would rather Criterion spend that money on releases and restorations than on countless tanks of gas to drive the van all over the country.

FYI, this is intended to be a lighthearted remark, not a hot take.

Has it been made public whether the Sean Baker set will include 'Anora' ? If not, will that also be a Criterion release but separate ?

Has it been confirmed that Criterion is releasing Anora?

Baker has said that Criterion is releasing Prince of Broadway in April and earlier this year he said Four Letter Words is coming early 2025 from Criterion. And Janus also has the rights to Starlet.

That's a bit unkind. You could say the same thing about the people posting in this thread. It's that atttitude of sneering at people with uncommon tastes that made me keep my interest in the arts hidden when I was younger.

Sending the closet to Brooklyn in an easy target. I want them to send it to Staten Island or somewhere in the South. Let's see how many Ozu fans are lurking in Mississippi.
