must have...
Already out there... Apocalypse Now: The Complete Dossier (Francis Ford Coppola, dir.)
In September, the reissue from Criterion... Seven Samurai (Akira Kurosawa, dir.)
In November, from Criterion... The Double Life of Véronique (Krzysztof Kieslowski, dir.)
Kieslowski's film, an absolute masterpiece, is both underrated and under-viewed. If you've never seen this one, have I got a film for you...

Oh, Sam, Sam, Sam...you've made my day by mentioning one of the greatest films every made...The Double Life of Veronique. I am a Kieslowski fanatic and I think Irene Jacob did her best work with him. Yes, this should be on everyone's must own list. I've had it on DVD from the UK for a few months (Artificial Eye released essentially the same thing Criterion is releasing)and it's really stunning.
I also highly recommend Criterion's release of "Elevator to the Gallows" with Jeanne Moreau.
I have never seen it! I will definately rent it. I am so behind in films that it is not even funny.
been meaning to watch or buy that film, The double life... watched red, white, and blue and loved them. also want to watch decalogue. so many films to look out for! thanks sam.
