Criterion Collection Hits Hulu Plus, Film Geeks Rejoice

The Criterion Collection, known for its exhaustively detailed and tastefully packaged classic and art house releases, was launched this morning on Hulu Plus with 150 classic films, ranging from Kurosawa and Antonioni to Godard and Truffaut. Even heavy hitters like Chaplin and Bergman probably won't inspire many non-subscribers to throw down the monthly $7.99 fee, but you'll be able to get a taste of the Collection on Hulu.com with free, ad-supported monthly picks. Even without Criterion's exhaustive Blu-ray and DVD special features, film geeks or anyone interested in the history of cinema should be thrilled to have online access to a huge range of film classics, many of which are nearly impossible to find at your local video store. Go ahead and get started with 'The Wages of Fear,' 'Picnic at Hanging Rock' and 'Eyes Without a Face.'

Criterion Collection Hits Hulu Plus, Film Geeks Rejoice originally appeared on Switched on Tue, 15 Feb 2011 14:20:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.
