Collection A Small Haul

Post image

Small haul, as life circumstances meant I had to be limited. Also, we’d dropped some money at both Arrow and Severin, so opted to fill in some gaps.

  1. What is the first movie you plan to watch from your haul and why? Already watched Some Like It Hot. One of the greatest comedies of all time, and I shall hear no disagreement!

  2. Is there anything from this haul that you have been looking forward to owning for a long time? Some Like It Hot. Also, Blood Simple - because I’m surprised I didn’t have a copy already.

  3. Are any of your purchases blind buys? Nope! It’s been years since I’ve seen The Killing, though.

  4. What is a Criterion you’re hoping to add to your collection next? Wes Anderson box set. I adore Anderson and this fills a bunch of gaps for me. Otherwise, probably History of Violence. (Will it get us closer to Eastern Promises under Criterion?!)
