Looks Good: BLU RAY Keepers and Sleepers - 100 Films You Probably Don't Own But Should - Volume 1 - A to G... by MARK BARRY (100 Indepth Reviews About Great Films and Their Exceptional BLU RAY Reissues)




"Cinema Paradiso"

Making movies suggestions is a precarious business - one man's Hilton Hotel is another man's Doghouse Dive. And looking at the 100 choices listed below - a body could easily holler - where's Blade Runner or Close Encounters Of The Third Kind or Gladiator (and other obvious stuff like that). But I figure any true film buff will already own these. 

Volume 1 in this series mixes familiar with off-the-beaten track and covers the letters A to G (with 2 more clusters of 100 to follow). All time frames are touched upon (1930 to 2013) - with quality restorations you may have missed highlighted too. I hope to have provided you with enough information to tempt - but not enough to spoil it. And I also make no bones about preferring a movie that lifts the spirits up - even if you have to get a bit bloodied en route. 

Living in London - each four/five star review is based on the Region B BLU RAY release – and if the film is only available elsewhere – I’ve incorporated American and European versions where their Region Coding will allow play on our UK machines. US customers reading this book simply refer to/buy the Region-A releases of the same titles. Technical info also includes – Aspect Ratio, Audio Settings, Languages, Subtitles and Extras etc. 

Hope you enjoy it…
