With the start of July comes the latest Criterion Collection sale at Barnes & Noble. As always, this is a great time to stock up on Blu-rays from the label. However, I really wonder whether Criterion’s new streaming ser...
Are you a fan of classic French cinema? I hope so, because if not, this July 4th holiday week is decidedly lacking in fireworks as far as new Blu-ray releases go.

It had been a while since we held a contest around here and I think we may need more time to get back into the swing of things. Even so, we got some pretty good responses to last week’s contest, one of which will win Jordan ...
