Andrew Haigh and Charlotte Rampling's DVD Picks

[@MichaelChapman18]

Haigh: "Have you seen it?" Rampling: "Bitch, I'm like 30 years older than you. Of course!"

[@siyuanma9305]

Love the dynamic here, Andrew excited and rambling like a kid in a toy store, and Charlotte with the absent-minded indulgence and intermittent responses of a parent. Makes me smile :)

[@curiouscase0075]

"Yes you should take the things you haven't seen. You silly boy."

[@roblinnbailey2359]

CuriousCase007 my dream is for Charlotte Rampling to call me a “silly boy”

[@j.b.9260]

@@roblinnbailey2359 If I were him, I'd be very glad it was captured on film.

[@calebebner2101]

For some reason I thought she said “city boy”🤣

[@TheWaynos73]

classic Charlotte

[@jacobmorris3664]

Sometimes she sounds like Lumley as Patsy (but not like Lumley herself).@@roblinnbailey2359

[@filmstreet.cinema]

Charming duo. Wish these videos were always longer.

[@lonerunner89]

I also wish they'd like and actually talk about movies that I've at least heard of. So many doggone British flicks and foreign productions. So many great American films from the 70s that should be right up there alley, but nope.

[@SofiaFP]

I want to be like Charlotte Rampling when I grow up, she's such a wonderful person.

[@diltonx6066]

Don't buy a blu ray player.

[@briefmarco]

The part about Tarkovsky killed me.

[@Theomite]

+Pokefan2199 YEAH! Just 'cause it's...TRUE...sometimes...doesn't mean we're like, y'know, OKAY with that sentence!

[@holypaper]

+Pokefan2199 I laughed too....because that's the phenomenal experience that Tarkovsky films have on me. That is also why he's one of my favorite directors. It's a process of discovery.

[@SamDavies94]

+Pokefan2199 I think it's the way they cut the video which cracked me up :D that jump cut to the smiling grin!

[@ihatethatwilguy]

+Mackey Made me laugh because that was my exact experience the first time I watched Stalker

[@starsareangels]

+Mackey You need to be in a certain state of mind to enjoy Tarkovsky :)

[@riveravaldez]

To the Criterion people: Thanks!, between other things, for putting the list of mentioned films in the description.

[@vinayaka93]

Great People. All DVD picks should be like this, two people talking !!

[@francoarocha7287]

Rampling is such an elegant woman, acting as if she doesn't know how important she is to cinema or how beautiful she looks in Night Porter.

[@FungusMossGnosis]

This is one of my favorite closet visits. Hope someone got her a Blu-ray player by now.

[@DavidLQ]

"You're not gonna take Weekend??????" Aww

[@sheilaskelhorn100]

Loves it when charlotte pulls faces at Andrew

[@chopin65]

I would be a cook, a gardener, a secretary, or a slave to her if she would share stories about her career and life. She is the goddess incarnte. Charlotte Rampling is why movies are worth making and hoarding in a closet.

[@gnalkhere]

I met Andrew Haigh twice at previews for the London Film Festival 2017. I kept conversation at a minimum but he's a cool guy

[@simonwoods7112]

My dream duo incarnate. 45 Years is legit one of my favorite movies ever.

[@AriaMohtadiHaghighi]

Her scenes with Michael C Hall were easily the highlights of Dexter season 8. She's brilliant.

[@geraldfrank1630]

“The Night Porter” is a great masterpiece & Charlotte’s performance is one of the best ever!! 👌👏👌👏👍🙏 Also the great Dirk Bogarde’s best! 👊

[@simonwoods7112]

Oh shit, it COMPLETELY went over my head that she was in that one, and that's why Andrew talked about it first! Lol I'm stupid

[@JackMellor498]

Charlotte seems like such a lovely person, great actress too, she was great in Broadchurch.

[@michaeleli6767]

She's still so beautiful .....

[@treesny]

Charming! And since the terrific WEEKEND and 45 YEARS, Andrew Haigh has been responsible for the wonderful HBO series +movie LOOKING, LEAN ON PETE and THE NORTH WATER.

[@noir4346]

dvd never dies

[@mathmss]

The best Christmas day ever would be me, Andrew Haigh, a cozy sofa, wine and movies.

[@ajurieu]

Rampling: I don’t have a blu-ray player. Haigh: *Hands her the blu-ray of everything.*

[@thevoid99]

charlotte rampling, still gorgeous. i hope they get more of her films like the stuff she did with francois ozon such as "under the sand" which should be in criterion along with many of ozon's work. i love the fact that haigh would whore out his own film. yes, do that! she loves "safety last!" yay!!!!

[@joehughey3213]

45 Years to Criterion please!!

[@AngelofMusic04]

+Joe Hughey It's IFC and directed by Andrew Haigh. That's a basic guarantee we're going to be seeing "45 Years" on Criterion by next year. :-)

[@CrystalJupiter]

+Joe Hughey oh my gosh yes please

[@neworleansguy10]

Loved it. So bittersweet.

[@DarinMichaelGrant]

@@AngelofMusic04 It's a part of Criterion now! Brilliant film (95/100), if not flat-out masterpiece (100/100).

[@Lord_of_The_World]

Her patience is immeasurable.

[@j.b.9260]

And her sexiness.

[@martincurran5281]

45 Years is a movie I wouldn't mind own twice. If Criterion release it I will have it pre-ordered the second it's available.

[@movieman1556]

My God, she is absolutely gorgeous ❤

[@Majoofi]

2:16

[@DannyDaCat]

+Majoofi Yeah, my favorite part also. :)

[@michaelz9892]

Unfortunately, he totally upstages her when I wanted to see her picks...

[@rafaellino7168]

I doubt she would want to speak too much, otherwise she would have. This is an edit down from a larger piece. I'm sure Andrew wasn't talking like this the whole time - they just cut together the interesting bits. The thing is - she's Charlotte, she was in either these films or she knows the director. And she's probably too classy to talk about any of it!

[@brubaker1101]

The fucker is annoying

[@TheOblivionCK]

Ah I see how it is criterion..Howard's End is 'out of print', but you've got it in the closet huh?

[@ivan_nagar]

hahahahah

[@MajorAskew]

Can't wait to see 45 Years. Weekend is such a wonderful movie.

[@seanmatyas3938]

This reminds me of my friend and I going through the bins of used movie at Blockbuster, just arguing and commenting on all the films we picked up. I mean those movies were not as good as the stuff in Criterion but still good memories :)

[@fleshtrashheat]

What a treat. Thank you!

[@DerekPower]

I guess I have two professional/life aspirations now: raiding the Criterion closet and watching films as a guest in Fårö

[@jasoncorbett8948]

Finally someone picked my favourite film! Black Narcissus by Powell and Pressburger

[@KenKen3593]

"So much, like, repression, bursting from every frame."

[@dinastiachowfan1401]

+KenKen3593 I know man... I don't know how to feel about that.

[@Onmysheet]

That line is making me want to see it.

[@KenKen3593]

+Onmysheet everyone should see it regardless. I'd call it essential Archers viewing, but then again I think all Archers films are essential viewing.

[@rufashaochicken]

glad to see Lynne Ramsay got recognition! Love Ratcatcher.

[@achoirofneurons]

love The Night Porter! Love Charlotte!

[@Onmysheet]

Love Ratcatcher! It really needs a Blu Ray transfer, some of Haneke's works too.

[@fadhilramadhani1847]

LOL love this video! plus, I wish to god that Rampling wins the Oscar this year.

[@filmsyoushouldbewatching]

Charlotte Rampling is the best 🙌

[@robotone2812]

[@liambrannelly45]

I love Charlotte, but falling asleep to Tarkovsky is a crime against humanity, LOL :)

[@nerdommeetsboy]

I wish I could go into the Criterion offices and pick out a billion titles :P Also 'If....' is a fantastic film

Early this year.

some videos have too low audio and some have high lol

[@ashikana21]

If... One of my favorites.

[@bileductable]

Distribute Criterion in Australia!

[@AngelofMusic04]

If I ever am fortunate enough to make it and get to go in Criterion's closet, the first things I'm grabbing are "A Woman is a Woman", if it's still in there somewhere, and "Antichrist" on Blu-Ray.

[@milesmontemore7167]

Would be much better to have her make her own choices, rather than having this guy push things on her, telling her how great everything is that HE likes.

[@maryvallettakeith6146]

Yes! What an obnoxious twit.

[@takeawalkwithme803]

Not sure why he’s there. She seems as oblivious as us.

And Zardos!

[@CarlosRiveraFernandez]

Damn...they just straight up dissed Tarkovsky.

[@FungusMossGnosis]

A gentle, loving diss. Tarkowsky is brilliant, Tarkowsky is boring. I love The Mirror and The Sacrifice, but most of his stuff puts me to sleep too.

[@EdgardoSalas]

@@FungusMossGnosis The first ten minutes of Andrei Rublev knocks some people to sleep. I've watched it twice and not once got bored. People differ.

[@maryvallettakeith6146]

Doesnt own a Bluray Player, WTF???

[@nerdommeetsboy]

+legiongt She's like the majority of British consumers; you should see the size of the Blu-Ray section in every shop, it's tiny. Hopefully her DVD player is region free as well! :D

[@KipVaughan]

+nerdommeetsboy about half the stuff I watch is available on Bluray. Small selection of titles isn't an issue anymore. The guy should have told her to play a Bluray player instead of the dvds.

[@GrimCellar]

+Kip Vaughan Surprising too how many people don't seem to realise that a Blu player will play their DVDs too (and CDs of course). There's simply no point buying a DVD-only player any more. Great video by the way, Criterion, Andrew seems like a really cool bloke.

[@KipVaughan]

I don't understand why they even make DVD only players. I just had a conversation with family members this Christmas about Bluray (since I gave someone a Bluray who didn't have a player) that you can buy a nice player for $40 these days. I can't see any reason to not jump on board.

[@rmoalxa]

Why is criterion so expensive :(

[@ShanghaiRooster]

There's a whole lot of work goes into some of those restorations, and it doesn't come cheap. It's sad to say the market for many of Criterion's releases isn't huge; certainly when compared to the mainstream movie market, so the price per copy made is going to be higher. But, as the old adage has it, quality is remembered long after price is forgotten. I'm guessing from your avatar that you're a brit, like me? So, for much of the collection still you have to factor in all the costs of importing from the USA. The range in Region B is expanding, but it's very likely that rights issues and all the other legal nonsense will stop the company from putting out everything we'd love to see.

[@rmoalxa]

@@ShanghaiRooster Hey thanks for the reply. Yep im from Scotland. There is a UK criterion page and hmv/fopp sell criterion however they're usually around the same price.

[@ShanghaiRooster]

@@rmoalxa Cheers. I live in nowheresville so have to do my buying online (the closest HMV I had closed down before they went bust the last time, and the one in London I used to go to hasn't reopened, sadly). Checking a couple of recent 'pre-orders' for Arrow and BFI blu rays on Amazon, they're both around the £17 pound mark, which is only a quid less than Region B Criterion. Both Arrow and BFI are much cheaper during sales though, typically £15 for two, whereas Criterion are £25 for two. The cost is annoying, but I'd rather have these great films available (and properly restored) regardless. 😎

[@susiecrawfish5363]

He-s trying to show off in front of Charlotte, n-est/ce pas?
