Wings of Desire is a really interesting film. I don't know yet how I feel about it, but it certainly is thought provoking and does a lot of interesting things.

And it was remade into City of Angels, just replace Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds with the Goo Goo Dolls.

thanks...i do a lot of blind buys, but maybe ill check it out on the criterion channel first.

usually if i don’t know what to think about a movie i end up really liking it ok repeated viewings.

yeah i recently watched the original and was shocked at how good it was.

i had only ever heard people make fun of the special effects but honestly i felt they held up pretty well considering the age.

haven’t watched the rest of the series but i will eventually.

I saw Close-Up a few years ago and I liked it well enough. I'll probably pick Taste of Cherry up later when it goes on sale.

taste of cherry is incredible, didn’t realize it was getting a physical release. definitely pick it up.

pretty sure the sale is happening. here’s part of an email that i got about my bruce lee box set preorder

criterion posted:

We also wanted to let you know that Barnes & Noble is planning to launch their Criterion 50% off sale in July and the Bruce Lee box set will be available during the sale. We truly appreciate your support, wherever you purchase your Criterion discs, and thank you for being a loyal fan.

edit: this email went out yesterday
