Episode 432: Lovemakers and Bombmakers: A Black Friday Special

Just in time to bulk up your holiday shopping lists there are some choice selections being released this week on Blu-ray from the classic to the pure nostalgic. Peter Sobczynski and Erik Childress guide you through it. Criterion has got some Scorsese and Chabrol while Kino goes Burt Reynolds and a bizarro ‘80s Christmas tale. Speaking of Scorsese, there’s another Lily Gladstone performance to check out from this year and Lions Gate releases two of their franchise players from the theaters as well. Erik and Peter go through the history of the Police Academy series while the same studio releases a complete set of a terrific sci-fi series Erik caught up with this year. For the moms (and lovers of all things love) there’s a classic Christmas romcom debuting in 4K and for the Dads (when they are done with Burt) Harrison Ford gets the 4K treatment on the run and Christopher Nolan’s latest is here for your stocking stuffers. 0:00 - Intro 1:40 - Criterion (Mean Streets (4K), La Ceremonie) 14:33 - Music Box (The Unknown Country) 20:32 - Kino (Babes in Toyland (1986), White Lightning, Gator, More 4K Recommendations) 36:44 - Shout!
