So I just got the Criterion Channel for Christmas, and I can not think about what to watch. I was thrilled at seeing some more modern pictures on there, but disappointed over the lack of certain films. I was disheartened that La Dolce Vita and Nights of Cabiria was not there since 8 1/2 and Amarcord were there. Then the lack of some French New Wave like Last Year at Marienbad. I still have to go to Archive.org for those.
I saw that there were some films were on the channel at some point, but have went(ex. Double Indemnity, Touch of Evil, and now Brazil and Pierrot le Fou).
I keep feeling like you can watch most of this stuff on Youtube and I am not able to find any recognizable titles. Mostly obscurities.
However, I noticed that Band a Parte left on July 31st '21 but is back now. Maybe some of them might come back and maybe some good stuff will come in January. Like any other streaming service, as many good things come as they go.
