Double Features
I created an account on The Auteurs a couple weeks ago. It’s an addictive site for film nerds started by a company working in close collaboration with The Criterion Collection. Right now it’s in beta. It’s a message board/blog/hulu/social networking kind of thing.
Anyway, one of the postings there recently asked users to list their ideal double features. Here are a few of the more inspired responses.
El Topo / Pink Flamingos
Citizen Kane / The Leopard
Salo / Caligula
West Side Story / Breakin’
One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest / Titicut Follies
Midnight Cowboy / The Odd Couple
Magnolia / Short Cuts
