Full transparency: all Blu-rays reviewed were provided by Kino Lorber and Criterion.
Sometimes technology just doesn’t cooperate the way it’s supposed to. This month’s review round-up was all typed and set to go, but due to a computer error, I lost everything but the notes I jotted down in a notebook as I watched this month’s films. However, my benevolent editor and I didn’t want to deprive anyone of their physical media fix. I jumped onto Audacity and freestyled my thoughts on this month’s titles, and what an eclectic bunch it was: a lavishly decadent period piece, kinetic narrative showcases, an erotic psychosexual thriller, and more!
This is a pretty bare-bones presentation to say the least, but I hope my thoughts help you decide what to check out in the near future. Who knows… maybe this will become something a little more produced and little more regular. Either way, have a wonderful holiday and may next year be marginally less painful than this one has been.
Cheers!
