Are there movies I missed that I’d like to be reviewing right now? Hell, yeah.
New on DVD this week is Upstream Color (trailer here), the latest from Shane Carruth (Primer), a self-distributed festival success that was too weird for most U.S. theaters. It’s on DVD, Blu-ray and video on demand, and I hope to review it in this space once it reaches my evil overlord, Netflix.
(Sorry, Netflix. I didn’t mean that, really. You’re a million times better than Blockbuster even if you did kill my favorite video store. I’ve never had any problems with your top-notch service. Thanks for bringing me the excellent “Top of the Lake.” Is that enough groveling? Now, please expand your streaming catalog.)
Anyway, here’s an interview with Carruth about putting his film out there by himself.
Meanwhile, what movies are hard to miss this week?
