Criterion Collection

Evening viewing recommendation? On @criterionchannl, watch George Stevens’s WOMAN OF THE YEAR (1942), which marked the beginning of the personal and professional union between Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy, who would go on to make eight more films together. bit.ly/42bJwug This tale of two newspaper reporters who wed and then discover that their careers aren’t so compatible forges a fresh and realistic vision of what marriage can be.

OFFICE ROMANCES 💌 Now playing on @criterionchannl! bit.ly/493z6k8 Beginning in the 1930s, the ever-growing number of working women inspired a new type of romantic comedy, where meet-cutes come amid desks and typewriters, and the course of true love is entangled with office politics and professional rivalry.

CARIBBEAN ACTIVIST CINEMA 🎞️ Now playing on @criterionchannl! bit.ly/3OWLk7e Born from a period of intense political upheaval, these radical Caribbean films spotlight vital stories of workers’ movements, decolonial struggle, and liberation from economic exploitation and violent oppression. Including urgent, on-the-ground accounts of revolutionary movements, dynamic portraits of women on the frontlines of resistance, and a one-of-a-kind diasporic musical revue, they blend agitprop and grassroots pedagogy with living folk traditions to forge a collective counter-cinema built around the fight for freedom.

Saturday evening viewing recommendation? On @criterionchannl, watch Jim McBride's BREATHLESS (1986) in our '80s REMAKES (AND THEIR ORIGINALS!) collection! ❤️‍🔥 bit.ly/4vPjhY2 Remaking Jean-Luc Godard's French New Wave landmark (itself an homage to American gangster films) was surely one of the more audacious cinematic gambits of the '80s, but McBride approaches the challenge with a postmodern sensibility that makes for a fascinatingly self-reflexive, deliriously stylized update.
