The Criterion Collection Top 10 Lists

The Criterion Collection Top 10 Lists

Posted by: on Nov 30, 2011 | No Comments

Are you a film buff? You want to have your best laugh of the day? Go to the Criterion Collection Top 10 Lists and pick any five or ten from the available lists, starting at the top. I liked Alec Baldwin’s list in particular for the eloquent reviews. Skip around, get a feel for it. Some reviews are better than others. All the films look interesting, assuming you haven’t seen them already.

Okay, done? Now go down to the very end and read Adam Yauch’s list. Adam Yauch, aka MCA, of the Beastie Boys, has apparently started a film distribution company. As I read his thoughts on the films, I could just imagine his input to his staff on which films to acquire for his company.

I was crying I laughed so hard. Really, I haven’t had such a good, hearty laugh in a long time. Thanks, Criterion, and thanks, MCA.
