There's my list.

I was in favor of something like Eyes Without a Face or Ikiru. Any other good thrillers or just a GOOD movie that I can rewatch with the girlfriend over and over again without getting tired of it? [yeah I know Ikiru isn't a thriller but I've been wanting that dvd for so long]

Also, what Criterion has production stills or a thick book that comes with the dvd that has great imagery. I'm majoring in Graphic Design and I was thinking of doing my Magazine Spreads on a certain Criterion movie.

Thanks in advance.

I'd recommend The Third Man

Track down a copy of Spellbound. It's easily my favorite, especially with all the additional info on Salvadore Dali's "dream sequence".

M
Videodrome
Naked Lunch
Kagemusha
Virgin Spring
The Bad Sleep Well
The Battle of Algiers
Youth of the Beast
The Wages of Fear
Tokyo Drifter
Branded To Kill
Stray Dog
Knife in the Water
Insomnia
Schizopolis
Ballad of a Soldier

Arguably the greatest film ever made....Rules of the Game!!

Criterion Recommendations
All Crits in R & R

Le Cercle Rouge

It's a great Jewel Heist caper, similar to Rififi. It comes in a nice 2 disc Criterion Collection set.

I loved 8 1/2

Since you already have Chungking Express and 2046 in your collection, you could start with In the Mood For Love.

Other than that, since you like japanese movies, both Kagemusha and Ran are masterpieces you won't regret. Kagumusha includes in the booklet graphic arts that Kurosawa made for storyboarding.

Edit: Oups! You already have ITMFL
