    Dave Eves joins for the first exploration of Arrow Video. We borrow the format of Criterion Now, but we get deeper into the label, talking about the history, the US launch, recent and upcoming releases, and how we purchase the discs. We also talk about some of our favorite releases, and share the results from the poll. We also explore this year’s release of Kiyoshi Kurosawa’s Pulse in a little more detail. This show will continue periodically as we have some titles to talk about.

    I am a somewhat educated Criterion dork, with a History and Film Studies bachelor's degree and plenty of self-education over the years. My tastes are all over the map. Probably my favorite is 1930s French Poetic Realism, but I like everything from noir, to animation, to horror, westerns, and modern film. Usually I prefer film that challenges and requires something of the viewer.
