LOVELY on THE AUTEURS

Growing up as a kid — back in the day when LaserDiscs were the joint and not DVD’s — I remember discovering the Criterion Collection.  They were curators of top notch arthouse films and modern classics — concentrating in both foreign and domestic films.  They were very selective in what they would choose for their film catalogue and brought little known or hard to find films to audiences with pristine presentation and supplements.

Suffice it to say that much of my film education came from watching the films that belonged to the Criterion Collection.

Today, The Auteurs is an online extension of the Criterion Collection.  They are very indie friendly and I love what they strive to do — to make arthouse films even more accessible to audiences in the modern age.

WHAT’S UP LOVELY has now been listed on The Auteurs website.  I am honored and humbled.  It feels pretty cool coming from being a kid and looking at the Criterion Collection as a stamp of approval for quality films.  And now my film is one of them.  Sometimes….hard work does pay off.
