Criterion Channel is literally built on top of FilmStruck's foundation. They took it over, it's just a UI redesign. Which is why you can go to the Criterion Channel subreddit (or even the general Criterion one) and still find crowds of people asking for help with/complaining about the same issues FilmStruck users had — particularly with the desktop browser client/player lagging and being generally underdeveloped compared to the streaming apps.

yea, its terrible on the google chrome. One day it works perfectly fine and then the next day its impossible to use. So frustrating.

works better on firefox

Got my girl that Showa era Godzilla collection. I’ve not seen most of them so I’m psyched.

What are the must watch movies on the channel that are leaving this month?

criterionchannel.com/leaving-november-30

I've seen Kind Hearts and Coronets, The Wicker Man, Viva, and The Love Witch

watch every apitchatpong available. thought he was gonna be on the channel forever smh.

klute is GOAT too. also watch plague dogs. just got done wit that. had to hold my dog at some points

love witch is on amazon prime so no rush on that one unless you want to

i just saw persona last night on a criterion blu ray. amazing movie. first bergman blew me away. the scan is beautiful

From reading that list, I’d rec’d Stalag 17

Hell ya Bergman is the best. I'm due for a re-watch of Persona.

I saw Rumble Fish for the first time last night on Criterion blu and it was great.

As for the ones leaving the channel, I just watched The Lavender Hill Mob and it was pretty solid although I think it fell apart a bit in the end.

Like that was the first bergman youve seen or the first one to blow u away?

If its the former, my nigga ur life and mental state finna be destroyed after watching the rest of his s***. persona is only one of his classics.

Silent light and Klute

I'm about to check out Stalag 17.

I bought Klute during this 50% off sale so I'll watch it at some point later. If available, I'd rather see the blu ray versions but there are more than enough on the channel that aren't in the collection.

tampopo is the best film and you cannot change my mind

starting with persona a bold move

it's here @sace

bergman created one of the most erotic scenes in cinema with words only in persona based on a real life experience, GOAT

bibi had my d*** like a brick

whats this

Criterion Channel lineup for December:

criterion.com/current/posts/6707-the-criterion-channel-s-december-2019-lineup

Dead End

I realized the other day I've had the criterion streaming s*** this whole time and haven't watched a movie with it yet

damn, first world problems

wish crit would start releasing more recent stuff (or at least anything 80s onward)

wasnt a big fan of theirs this year. koker trilogy one of the best things they've released though

just now seeing this and yes it was the first Bergman I've seen!
