You can also usually digitally check out this movie and any other movie in The Criterion Collection via your library using the apps connected to your library card - Hoopla, OverDrive or sometimes Kanopy
If you want to ditch cable / Netflix / streaming this is the way to go.
As a post production engineer I sincerely thank you “laser nuts”. Early adopters of laser disc would go through each Criterion release frame by frame and post editorials in “media”’magazines.
“Perfect Vision” for instance. I made a good career out of modifying Telecine machines and associated color correction tech to address concerns raised by discriminating consumers. They expected perfection from imperfect equipment, and we strove mightily to provide it.
Flash frames, pan whips, film scratches, reel flips, the list goes on. Then came HD and another cycle began. I milked it for 30 years. ( ‘83-‘13)
Got to see a lot of obscure but profound films too. One of my all time faves: “Intacto”
A Spanish film with the most bizarre story ever. I can’t even…
.Also loved “Funny Bones” with Oliver Platt, Lee Evans, (absolutely brilliant in this) and of all people, Jerry Lewis in a serious role.
It’s a comedy, trust me.
So, many thanks from me and all my colleagues. Oh and “The Ruling Class” is phenomenal. Ike jacket, feather duster, and noose, just to begin.

Good idea. I was a moron and paid for the subscription service for a minute.
I own a few Criterions on LD too. 😳
