Criterion Barnes&Noble 50% Off Sale Picks/July 2024

[@ozzy.....7383]

Looks like I have a store 65 miles away at Frances Scott key mall and Thelma is in stock. I guess no stores in Pa va or wv I live on the border of Wv Va Md Pa

[@grey1951]

Great suggestions! I always recommend classics like In a Lonely Place, All About Eve and Mildred Pierce. Those are excellent starting points for someone who is unfamiliar with the cinema of the past, especially B & W cinema. Enjoy the Criterion sale!

[@sonnercampbell1702]

I love In A Lonely Place, one of my favorite Bogart performances, and might be my favorite Nicholas Ray directed movie. I’ve developed a love for 50’s melodrama, and Nicholas Ray is one of my favorite directors because of it. Have you seen They Live by Night, another crime drama by Ray in the Criterion collection. It’s a star crossed lovers on the run from the law movie, starring Farley Granger and Cathy O’Donnell. It’s really good, I recommend it

[@roachman1412]

I agree with you on your picks especially Lonely Place it was a blind buy last criterion sale it's now my number one Bogart film

[@garyrichardson475]

Looking forward to “movies, everyone loves, but I hate”. Don’t hold back. We can take it!

[@MovieChatter01]

Hi friend. 😂😂😂 I'm looking forward to it myself. I have my stack ready to roll. It's all in good fun so I really hope everyone will get a good laugh out of it. I like doing those kinds of videos because it's definitely way outside my comfort zone. Thanks so much for the support. I really do appreciate it. 😀👋👋

[@20thand21stMovies]

Awesome recommendations, Stephanie! Dogfight is on my list to pickup this Friday, and I’m looking forward to most of the July releases. Hope you enjoy the sale!

[@Busha69]

The Cremator mention!! It's my favourite local movie of all time and it makes me sad it's not more famous (but it's understandable why). The director (and a screenwriter) Juraj Herz was born in a nearby town. And I'm pretty sure his other work like Morgiana is also accessible to English speaking audience, if you are interested in seeing more of his stuff.

[@nicodimus2222]

Thinking about grabbing Bound and The Fisher King in this sale. Most of the movies in the CC leave me cold, though.

[@saraprestwood]

Movies you showing sharing my favorite 80s movies

[@pete49327]

Excellent, thank you. My number one mainstream pick would be The Graduate. Janus titles are hidden treasures, I suggest Godland; great adventure/script and maybe the most stunning cinematography of any film ever made where wilderness and grand vistas play a central role...the cinematography is as good or better than The Revenant/Lawrence of Arabia. My recommendation for non mainstream...The Great Beauty, a top 3 Criterion fav of mine, won Academy award for best foreign language film, BAFTA and Golden Globe. Glad you like Bound, it will be one of my buys in July. 400 Blows, great Truffaut pick, and try his Jules and Jim.

[@jameshorton7496]

One Criterion release I really want is Pat Garrett & Billy The Kid w/ James Coburn and Kris Kristofferson. Release date is next Tuesday, July 2nd.

[@MovieChatter01]

Hi friend. I'm totally with you and I've had that on pre-order. Can't wait to get it. Thanks so much for checking out the video. 😀

[@andremsalgueiro]

Great pickups and recommendations! I'm a huge Girlfight fan. Brilliant film and Michelle Rodriguez gives a great performance.

[@arty712]

Great video and suggestions! I’ve added a couple of your recommendations to my list, that I hadn’t considered before; namely, Anatomy of a Fall and Mudbound. Thank you!

[@mirandasmoviemadness]

Thanks for the recs Stephanie! I do have several on my list. Always so hard to narrow it down to a handful to pick up. Excited for the sale.

[@MovieChatter01]

Hey Miranda. So happy to hear you have a working list going. It's always so tough to decide which ones to go for during the sale. I might be sitting this one out just because my backlog of movies to watch is getting to be too much. I need to catch up. 😂😂😂 Thanks so much for checking out the video and I hope you get everything you want. 😊

[@ozzy.....7383]

I have lambs 4k KL and on dvd that looks great and has recipe book in the case. Dazed is amazing night of the living dead is a must and princess bride is a must and the case looks like a book

[@carolynscadern6787]

Hi Stephanie! Just finished watching your video. I plan on picking up Bound for sure. I have the Olive Films Blu-ray but would like to see the Criterion treatment. Jennifer Tilly was great in this movie and I feel it was very underrated. Kind of a sleeper from the mid 1990’s when Lionsgate was a fairly newish company. All about Eve sounds interesting as does In a Lonely Place. I too have a birthday in July and the sale ends on mine! On a more personal note, I have to say I appreciate the timing of this video. I had to fly back down to Florida this past weekend, as my mom was entered in Hospice care, and it saddens me to say that she passed away. My sisters were all able to be here so she was with her family and went peacefully. We lost our father 8 years ago, so this has been a very difficult time for my sisters and me. Your video gave me 30 minutes of distraction, and I am able to look forward to something that brings me joy:watching movies. I am sharing this with you, which may seem strange because I have never met you, but I know you and your family are going through something similar. Through watching your videos, and commenting back and forth, you do feel like a friend to me, and I hope that you don’t mind that I felt the need to share this with you. Thank you, as I always say, for sharing your thoughts. You may not always think so, but your videos do matter a lot to us. -Carolyn

[@MovieChatter01]

Hi Carolyn (friend 💞), I intentionally left your comment to be answered at a time when I was able to sit without the 4 pups crawling on me. I'm am so sorry to hear about the passing of your mom. Please know that you and your sisters are all in my thoughts. This phase of life is tough and I for one feel totally unprepared. I'm glad you and your sisters have each other to lean on. My brother is my only sibling so I'm terrified of the day when I lose him. It's always just been the two of us and our parents. I guess I just took it for granted that he and I would hold each other up as needed. As for the movies, I have that Bound Olive Signature edition as well and I can tell you the Criterion really blows it away. I was shocked at the improvement. In A Lonely Place is terrific as is All About Eve. I'm happy the video gave you a bit of a break from everything you're dealing with. I'll be posting again either today or tomorrow. 😊 I know exactly what you mean about feeling like our back and forth feeling like a legit friendship. I feel the same way. Just know I'm thinking of you and sending all the good energy I can muster up. If you ever feel the urge to reach out, my email is right in the about section of the channel. Feel free to use it. Please take care of yourself and thank you for being a friend. ❤️

[@carolynscadern6787]

@@MovieChatter01 thank you for the kind and thoughtful response. I appreciate all the good energy, and am finding my new normal back here at home. I will miss my mother very much, but I take comfort in that she is in a better place. Like you said, this phase of life is one that I had hoped wouldn’t come around so quickly. I too felt very unprepared. My sisters and I have a large age difference and they are scattered across the states. I am in NY, one is in Florida, and the other in Iowa. We will have to lean on each other via texts or emails or the occasional Skype. I hope you can lean on your friends and partner when needed. And if I can lend an ear, I certainly will. As we get older, new friends are hard to find. I am glad that I found a friendship with you. Take care, and enjoy those pups! Carolyn

[@Fred-vh1mk]

Always wonderful to see a video from you; one of my very favorite movie channels. Hey, have you ever seen a film called "Dark City"? You always recommend such cool and eclectic pictures; I feel like you'd enjoy that, if you've never watched it.

[@MovieChatter01]

Hi friend and thank you so much got the very kind comment. You have no idea how much it means to me. 😊 Dark City?? Hmm. I looked it up and I feel like I've seen it but a very long time ago. I'm definitely going to look into grabbing a copy to watch. Thanks so much for watching and for the great movie recommendation. I'm sure I'm going to really enjoy it. 😊

[@Fred-vh1mk]

@@MovieChatter01 Of course! And make sure to watch the director's cut, if available. The theatrical cut famously spoils the entire film. Cheers

[@sonnercampbell1702]

Great video 👍 I like that you had a selection of recommendations for people who are new to Criterion, in addition to your own recommendations. The one movie, going into the sale, that I know I’m going to get is The Blob because I got the remake from Shout! Factory earlier this year and I’ve been wanting to watch them both together 😊 it’ll make for a fine 50’s & 80’s cheese sandwich

[@deltadaddy94]

thanks for the recs, Ive been saving up all year for this sale. You just got a new sub.

[@MovieChatter01]

Hi friend and welcome to our community of movie enthusiasts. I'm so happy you found us and decided to follow along. I cover all genres so if there's ever anything you want to hear about, feel free to drop it in the comments. The sale is a great time to load up on titles from Criterion. Also, Amazon does a pretty good job of price matching if things are out of stock at Barnes and Noble. I'm glad you found the video helpful and I hope you're able to grab all the titles you want. Thanks so much for watching, and again, welcome. 😀👋👋

[@garyrichardson475]

Thanks for the suggestions. The Cremator sounds intriguing. I’m definitely going get 4K Blue Velvet. Have you seen “Me You and Everyone We Know”? I highly recommend that one. It’s a bit quirky and experimental, but also accessible and touching. Sort of like in way that “True Stories” is a bit of an art film but everyone who see it likes it.

[@MovieChatter01]

Hi friend. I don't think I have seen "Me, You And Everyone We Know" but it sounds like something I'd enjoy. It's on my list to investigate so thank you for that. The Creamator is a very different but interesting movie. Something I forgot to mention is that the director is an actually Holocaust survivor, which adds another layer to it. Blue Velvet is a winner as well. I haven't seen it in 4K but I picked up the Blu-ray a few years back and really enjoyed it. Thanks so much for watching and the movie recommendation. 😀👋👋

[@ykreview]

A really awesome haul the package you mentioned for Mishima is incredible one i def am curious about great video

[@994pt4]

'All About Eve' and 'In A Lonely Place' are two of my all time favorite Hollywood films. Great list!

[@MovieChatter01]

Hi friend. Same here. Thanks so much for checking out the video. 😊

[@AndyKing1963]

I loved Gray Gardens. All About Eve was a real surprise to me, what a brilliant film

[@MovieChatter01]

Hi friend. I'm with you on Grey Gardens. Such an interesting look inside their lives. Have you seen the documentary, Crumb?? That's a wild ride too about the life of artist, Robert Crumb. Very interesting. I love anything Bette Davis and All About Eve is such a winner. Thanks so much for checking out the video. 😀👋👋

[@codyinthecinema]

Mildred Pierce and Double Indemnity make such good of the 4K format for film noir, specifically. Also - much ❤ for the Italian film shoutout!!!

[@stevemoody13]

I'm definitely in for Mudbound, Dogfight, Bound, and Anatomy of a Fall. I have most of the others. Thanks for the suggestions. It makes me want to go back and watch the ones that I have already seen again.

[@MovieChatter01]

Hey Steve. Great picks to hopefully add to your collection. Mudbound is such an important movie so I hope everyone grabs a copy this sale. Funny every time I do that videos, I feel like watching every movie I talk about. I guess we know what we'll be doing for the next few weeks. Thanks so much for watching and hope all is going well with you. 😀👋👋💞

[@dellonmovies1702]

I LOVE both Pariah & Mudbound. I still need to get the latter for the collection, I saw it on Netflix. Carey Mulligan is amazing in this, though Mary J. Blige got the Oscar nom. I'm not a fan of Dazed & Confused, buuuut, I am giving away a copy of that Criterion on my channel if anyone's interested (sorry for the plug, Stephanie). Francois' last name is pronounced True-Foe (The 400 Blows is great). And we all just call Joe Pantoliano Joey Pants.

[@rossyoung2506]

Hi, I was just wondering if you have watched Terrifier 2 and if you’ll watch Terrifier 3 when it comes out?

[@MovieChatter01]

Hi friend. I haven't watched it yet. I wasn't a big fan of the first but I'm going to give it a watch very soon. If I like it, I'll watch the third when it's out. It's out. 😊

[@KingOrest]

I’ve been wanting to see Bound for a long time. Bound is definitely on my list… also, Mildred

[@entcave]

Off topic question, do you know of anyone in the community that has pursued making their own hard slip cases for a blu ray? Sort of like a slip case for a book. Also, anyone who has worked on custom insert artwork?

[@MovieChatter01]

Hi friend. I don't know anyone personally but I do think there are folks doing things like that over on Etsy. You might want to take a look and see what's over there. 😀

Is Thelma 4K and is it on sale and how do I get it. I have no criterion store near me

Such a great idea for people to get their toes wet in the Criterion Collection with a mainstream title. Pinocchio was outstanding! What a gorgeous film and the packaging is so creative. Very funny crickets sound effects! Ha ha! In a Lonely Place is such a good film. Bicycle Thieves is a powerful film with so much heart. Great recommendations! Awesome video Stephanie! I am really looking forward to this sale and hope to pick up 5-7 titles.

[@ozzy.....7383]

Got the movies I mentioned from Best Buy and I haggled. They wanted 70$ fror Princess bride
