It’s ironic that she said it will be an asmr video when she was touching the booklet. I never liked those types but this is a great unintentional asmr channel. Great voice and intriguing content.

You are awesome! I have a large size Criterion collection and my wife and family always make fun of me because I love Criterion. Nice to see such a nice person that likes Criterion films. Wish me luck, I plan to get the massive Bergman box set tomorrow at Barnes & Noble.

[@filozsofia]

You are so nice! Thanks! Good luck finding your perfect copy of that amazing Bergman set! 🤩

[@kd7luz88]

Thanks for sharing your great collection! I always enjoy your content! Keep up all the good work!

[@bobbyb8005]

My favourite criterion movies would probably be: -Mulholland Drive -Blue Velvet -Easy Rider -Don’t Look Now -Dressed to Kill -Blow Out -Quadrophinia -Silence of the Lambs -Shallow Grave -Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas -Parasite

[@filozsofia]

Great choices 🤗

[@user-qk3vo7tp1h]

For a movie that seems idealic as first and slowly turns to chaos, the first thing that comes to mind is American Beauty, though I'm sure you've seen it

[@goyhunteristheblu-raybandi2036]

Clever idea for a vid! Love that u keep the price tag for historical purposes. Ur honesty in regards to viewing the movies was refreshing. Ur synopsis of every film is helpful in regards to making a purchase.

[@filozsofia]

Mariann, you are so nice! Thank you! It means a lot to me. I’m glad you like what I have to offer! 😉 I’m still pretty new in front of the camera, still getting used to it. 😊 Do you collect Criterions?

[@goyhunteristheblu-raybandi2036]

filozsofia I have a few but I will now after ur critiques! I am looking into Picnic in the Park!

[@filozsofia]

Mariann Awesome! Let me know what do you think of them once you watch them! 😉

Nice to see a collector with a balanced taste in movies. I'm looking at your Pixar and superhero movies.

[@timsrecords7987]

Man, I am so glad I found your channel! I have been watching after work for the past few days. Persona was such a life changing film for me. I never viewed movies the same after it. The way the nurse opens up to the actress and how everything unfolds is pretty interesting. I need to see some of your picks! I haven’t seen some of these..I need to do homework😎

Szia! First time viewer and now subscriber. Loved your natural presentation and your awesome Hungarian accent 😊 Makes me wish I was back in Budapest now! If you like Psychological movies and The Age Of Innocence, you must love Phantom Thread, right? And a few apartment movies......Rope, Rear Window, Repulsion, The Tenant and.....er.....The Apartment, but you probably already know these 😁 Wish I could join in the B & N sale, but unfortunately I'm a UK citizen, so am missing out. Look forward to seeing more from you. Enjoy the Sale!

[@filozsofia]

Szia! Thanks a lot! 🤗 I know! I love and miss Hungary 🇭🇺 and Budapest so much! I actually haven’t seen Phantom Thread yet 😬 but it’s on my watchlist. I’m glad you think it’s in that psychological period category! Thanks for the apartment movie recommendations, I’ve seen some of them, I will check out the others! 🤗

[@andyt1869]

Budapest is just the Best! Beautiful city and beautiful people ❤🇭🇺 Well I'm gonna purchase Persona and Picnic at Hanging Rock after your video......I love a good booklet and art work as much as You! Lol Never understand why some releases have no inside artwork.....it can't be that difficult! 😊 Definitely check out Phantom Thread asap.....but watch it twice if possible, it's definitely richer and more textured with each viewing 🖒

[@filozsofia]

Thanks for the recommendation, now I’m very interested in Phantom Thread. 🙃With Picnic at Hanging Rock, be careful because they have released another version without the book, just in a normal case. So pay attention if you order it online to get the right version. 😉

[@andyt1869]

I would be devastated if it didn't have the book 🙃 Thank you so much for the helpful tip, much appreciated.

[@movieedge7370]

The before Trilogy boxer set on criterion is worth checking out, my wife has it she loves it.

[@filozsofia]

I have 2 of the 3 movies in other releases, but I do like the criterion version. It looks beautiful. 👍

[@Onmysheet]

There's so many Criterion Blu Rays I want to buy but I only get so few because they cost a bomb when they're shipped to the UK.

[@Lettuce_Play]

A film I would recommend (well maybe a couple) is called The Haunting of Julia (also known under the title Full Circle). It also stars the lovely Mia Farrow. It is not Criterion however and I do not know of any "official" release of the film. It really deserves a BR release. Another one kind of similar to Full Circle & Rosemary's Baby (in terms of being a satisfying "slow burn" horror story), is The Changeling, starring George C. Scott. That one IS available by Severin, and one that I also own. But those films are fantastic.

[@filozsofia]

Thank you so much for the recommendations, I will check into them! 👍

[@youngdarkvader8406]

how about haunted mansion with eddie murphy

[@filozsofia]

I actually have that movie in a 4 pack! 😄 It’s fun around Halloween.

[@kenr.9177]

Hi filozsofia! Rosemary's Baby was the third in a series of apartment films made by Polanski. 'Repulsion' the first, is in the Criterion Collection as well, 'The Tenant', the second, currently is not. Cheers, and enjoy building your collection!...

[@filozsofia]

Thanks for the info! I’ll check them out when I get a chance!

[@PhilosopherKing1138]

Have you seen Repulsion? It's a film about a woman that spends time alone in her apartment when her sister leaves on a trip. While she's by herself, a bunch of crazy things happen to her. It's a horror/thriller film. The majority of the film takes place in the apartment. You might like it!

[@filozsofia]

I haven’t seen it yet, thanks for the recommendation, I will look into it! 😊

[@jnagarya519]

Communicate with Criterion about the cracked disc. They should replace it.

[@CinemaScumbags]

Love what you said about idyllic movies. Love films that start out happy and go downhill, or films that dissect the "perfect" home life. American Beauty, Ordinary People, Stepford Wives, etc.

Great Criterion collection I don’t have many and what I do have their UK versions because some reason the UK criterions go down in price faster than the US versions. But the UK versions are region b only, so unless you have a region free player it’s pointless to buy

I haven't played The Age of Innocence release yet though I have seen the film of course. It would have been nice to get a commentary although I know Daniel Day Lewis does perhaps get slightly carried away but Pfeiffer would have been nice. i'm not sure I would trust Miriam Margolyes however great though her performance is and entertaining as she always is! A fair few of the others are sadly no longer with us.

[@kroagw06]

Another great video, Zsofia! My Criterion Collection is also quite humble compared to many others, but that's what's so wonderful about collecting. Whether it's a large collection, or a small what, it's always special to the person collecting. Anyway, I wanted to leave a few potential recommendations for movies (and one book!) for you to check out based on some of these movies you have. You're passion about The Age of Innocence makes me want to see the movie AND read the novel. Have you read that book yet? If you haven't had the chance, I HIGHLY recommend the novel Ethan Frome. It's written by the same author who wrote The Age of Innocence, Edith Wharton, and it seems like it explores a lot of the same themes. It's one of the best books I've ever read, but it is absolutely heart wrenching. It's very short though, so it could be a quick read, if you're interested and haven't read that one yet. Since you're a Rebecca fan, I recommend the 2011 version of Jane Eyre starring Mia Washikowska and Michael Fassbender. It really leans into the dark, Gothic nature of the tale. It's such a beautiful adaptation. Also, in the same vein, and also by Guillermo del Toro, Crimson Peak is absolutely a must watch. A lot of the things you mentioned that you enjoyed about Rebecca are things that you will also find in Crimson Peak, with the added bonus of spooky scenes with amazing looking ghosts. They looks like clay statues come to life. It's such an underrated modern movie. If you go hunting, there is a Limited Edition Blu-ray by Arrow Video out there that is of Criterion quality. The package is amazing. Finally, those slow-burn movies that you requested. If you want another horror movie, I suggest Burnt Offerings. It's quietly creepy, and it builds and builds to truly wild climax. The second movie I recommend as highly as I possibly can is The Swimmer starring Burt Lancaster. It's not a horror movie, but it is bewildering and upsetting and it just builds and builds to moments that, for me, are unforgettable. It's a very surreal movie, too. I've never seen anything like it before. Highly, highly, highly recommended. God bless, and take care!

[@filozsofia]

Thank you so much for this great great comment! I actually have the book The Age of Innocence back in Hungary, I haven’t read it yet. I’ll grab it next time when I go back. I absolutely adore all Jane Eyre adaptations including the one you mentioned. My favorite is the mini series though with Ruth Wilson. Also I agree with you about Crimson Peak! I really enjoy that movie as well and I the atmosphere and cinematography style is captivating! Great recommendations! Thank you for your other recommendations as well, I will look into them! Thanks for watching! 😊

[@kroagw06]

filozsofia Cool! I hope you find a new movie to enjoy from them. I hope you take Daisuke’s advice and make that Michelle Pfieffer ranking video. I think your passion for her work would make that discussion really special. I haven’t seen much of her work, myself, but only because I just haven’t gotten around to it. She is absolutely THE best thing about Batman Returns. Every second she is on screen is stupendous!

[@bbgothviolator8953]

[@filozsofia]

Criterion Collection is very diverse. If you’re experimental and enjoy discovering new styles and movies that aren’t really for entertainment, but for making you think and feel a certain way, than you will enjoy exploring these movies. If you like to get movies you already know, there are some well known masterpieces in the collection.
