Buy This Even If You Have An Older Version.

Saving Private Ryan (Widescreen Two-Disc Special Edition) 1688 reviews Tom Hanks, Tom Sizemore
Dreamworks Video, 2004
A flawed gem
+ Tell Me I'm A Good Man + Great Package
First off, everything you may have heard about the opening Normandy sequence is true: this is quite simply the most amazing battle re-creation footage you're ever likely to see. Definitely not for the squeamish, it paints its horrifying portrait without ever allowing the viewer to glory in any kind ...

The Silence of the Lambs (Criterion Collection Spine #13) 463 reviews Jodie Foster, Anthony Hopkins
Criterion, 1998
Wow
+ Silence of the Lambs + it puts the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again
This is my favorite movie ever. With Jodie Foster as the vulnerable Clarice Starling, and Anthony Hopkins as the deadly Hannibal Lector it is not something you can afford to miss. Best movie by far, I am in love.
