Criterion’s Courtney Love collection is a great reminder of how magnetic and unpredictable her screen presence always was 🔥
Evening viewing recommendation? On the Criterion Channel, enjoy our Starring Courtney Love collection! ❤️🔥 ❤️ bit.ly/3PYqAwA
A performer of rare volatility and range, Love brings a feral intelligence and bruised glamour to the screen, meriting a place in cinematic culture alongside her hallowed stature in music.Messy, magnetic, and defiantly alive, Love’s is a screen presence that resists containment.
Agnès Varda’s The Beaches of Agnès on MUBI. Playful, poetic, and profoundly moving — one of the great late-career self-portraits in cinema 🔥
13 years of Xavier Dolan’s Laurence Anyways. Still one of the most stylish, emotional, and boldly queer films of its era ✨
The Times of Harvey Milk on Criterion Channel. One of the most important and groundbreaking documentaries ever made ❤️
On the Criterion Channel, watch our edition of THE TIMES OF HARVEY MILK (1984) ❤️
This Oscar-winning film, directed by Robert Epstein and produced by Richard Schmiechen, was as groundbreaking as its subject. bit.ly/4xVj7Q0
One of the first feature documentaries to address gay life in America, it's a work of advocacy itself, bringing Milk's message of hope and equality to a wider audience.
Amores Perros restored version coming to MUBI July 10. Iñárritu’s raw, explosive debut still hits like a truck 🔥
4. As CathayPlay curator, "The Night" stands out as one of the boldest and most provocative shorts we offer.
