Criterion Collection

On Sunday 28 September 2014 my friend Matthew started watching the Criterion Collection films in spine number order, beginning at number 1, and the following week I joined him in this weekly project. Obviously, because I cannot help myself, I have written up short reviews of these films, which are linked to the titles below.

Since the start of the project, Matthew has moved away, but I have continued watching the films, and currently try to review two every week (though I no longer watch them all on Sundays). NB I’ve done more ranking of them over at my Letterboxd account.
