Only DRIVE MY CAR and SUMMERTIME aren't getting the treatment. Should come out in time for the B&N 50% sale. I recently rewatched DEVIL IN A BLUE DRESS, which I liked, and made me wish that they'd done an Easy Rawlins series with Denzel. Yeah, my wallet ain't that happy about this UHD only direction Criterion is going. Guess it means I have to be very discerning with my purchases.

Curt McGirt Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 I've never seen any Ray Dennis Steckler films but that trailer is a treat. Which ones should I see? Surely they're all public domain on Youtube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
