CRITERION CORNER GIVEAWAY!!!!

hey there. it’s been a while since i’ve randomly given stuff away, and that doesn’t jive well with my philosophy that love and / or readership should be shamelessly bought. so in honor of the holiday season - and to make up for lost time / clear my shelf of some extra stuff i’ve got lying around - i thought i’d throw the biggest Criterion Corner giveaway yet. 

The Prize:

- DVD of Sidney Lumet’s 12 ANGRY MEN! 

- Blu-ray of Claude Chabrol’s LES COUSINS!

- 1 DVD box set of Krzysztof Kieslowski’s THREE COLORS! (opened but never watched and in mint condition… long story)

- 1 MYSTERY DVD!!!! (maybe a Criterion film, maybe just something I want to share with a stranger. definitely previously loved).

TO ENTER: just “like” and / or Re-blog this post. each note will count as a separate entry, so every fellow blogger can therefore submit a maximum total of 2 entries.

giveaway will be closed at 12 P.M. EST on Friday, 12/3/2011. 1 winner will be randomly selected from the notes. so the odds should be okay if not super awesome, but someone’s gonna get some great stuff for nothing. 

good luck, and thanks so, so much for reading the blog and my Criterion Corner column on movies.com!

UPDATE: GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.

CRITERION CORNER GIVEAWAY: SEPTEMBER EDITION

this month’s prize: a dvd or blu-ray (winner’s choice) of CARLOS!!!!

to enter, all you have to do is re-blog this post. that’s it. on monday, i’ll randomly declare a winner from the re-bloggers / re-tweeters, and you’ll receive your dvd or blu-ray at the end of the month directly from Amazon when it’s released. 

the same deal is going with RTs of a similar Criterion Corner Tweet, so RT that if you want to double your already not too-shabby odds of winning. 

fun? fun. totally shameless… sure, but everybody wins, and - most of all - it helps to ensure that a bunch of people are aggressively spreading the word about how one of the best films of 2010 is due for an imminent Criterion release and that everyone should be getting jaaazzzzzzeeed! so get… doing whatever it is that you feel like you want do in this situation. awesome? awesome.

okay, toodles.
