JFF: Last Movies You Bought or Rented
A place where you can post your collection or movies that you bought recently.
It doesn't necessarily need to be on physical format.

All digital purchases during these COVID months. Unless indicated, all watched before. Only one (quasi) blind buy.

Shame on me, I just realized 13 days later, that I have rented Sideways at the library, but I already owned that film.
These are the two Sideways side by side.
Fortunately, I have a list of movies that I own!!!

I received The Rules of the Game, but I haven't read them yet.
I also received Ingmar Bergman's Cinema. Now, my Bergman collection (39 films) is larger than my Hitchcock collection (24 films).
Sadly, Don't Look Now went OOP. I got a refund. The only films I haven't received yet are In a Lonely Place and Wings of Desire.
PS: No images today 😥, I'm not writing this on my laptop.

I'm only occasionally buying games on steam.
In the recent past I bought some Playstation 3 games on DVD.
The last movie I acquired on DVD was La Vie en Rose 2007 as a birthday present.
Over 20 years ago I rented movies for home VCR.

Rented:
Le juge et l'assassin (1976) (Bertrand Tavernier)
Quai d'Orsay (2013) (Bertrand Tavernier)
L'enfant (2005) (Palme d'Or and Dardenne brothers)
Annie Hall (1977) (Best Picture and Woody Allen)
Bought:
The Beguiled (2017) (Sofia Coppola and Best Director at Cannes)
Fun fact: I was supposed to see that movie in the summer of 2017. I showed up too late at the projection, and instead, I watched Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales (2017). So after four years, I'm finally going to see The Beguiled. 😀

Rented:
Cléo de 5 à 7 (1962)
I hope this film has an extremely good reason for not being 2 hours long. Because if Varda can do her math 5 à 7 means "from 5 to 7", that is 2 hours, not 1h30, and therefore, the title is a misrepresentation of the film.
