Any Criterion Collection fans in the house?
Hey guys! Calling out all Criterion fans. Utilize this thread to talk about your favorite Criterion releases. I was introduced to Criterion at a relatively younger age. The first ever Criterion movie that I ever saw was Dazed and Confused followed by Wes Anderson's The Royal Tenenbaums. I haven't dived into the obscure stuff but have managed to watch Seven Samurai on Hulu Plus.

Not sure what the benefits of the Criterion edition of readily available films are. Explain it to me.

The packaging and the bonus features / supplements are amazing. They work closely with the makers of the film to present / preserve the work the way it was intend. High quality 4k digital transfers which are superior in quality.

I would assume so. They tend to provide supplements that remain true to the director's vision.
