"The Criterion Collection contains some of the greatest documentaries, and these are my favorites. These discs give you a good dose of Werner Herzog (in front of the camera), Les Blank, and Errol Morris. You also get the short Werner Herzog Eats His Shoe, which makes me laugh me every time I watch it."

"This is a tiny documentary that for me, is so much more than a movie. In short, it’s about an autistic boy who’s Texan parents take him on horseback to inner Mongolia in search of a Shamanic healing. It’s not the easiest film to watch, but in my opinion, a miracle happens on screen."

"Pop in 1929’s The Love Parade and watch the movie musical being invented. These pre-Code movies are sophisticated in a way that musicals weren’t again until Cabaret in the 1970s. (Although none of them holds up quite as well as Rouben Mamoulian’s Love Me Tonight, which is screaming out for a Criterion reissue.)"

"Out of all the films I watch — I mean the ones I’m mentioning — I’ve probably watched this one, for some reason, more than all the others. The actors in it — the acting is stupendous. The story, direction, and the whole thing. And it features one of my favorite actors in the world as well."
