For more about Martin Scorsese's World Cinema Project, No. 4 and the Martin Scorsese's World Cinema Project, No. 4 Blu-ray release, see Martin Scorsese's World Cinema Project, No. 4 Blu-ray Review published by Jeffrey Kauffman on February 17, 2023 where this Blu-ray release scored 4.0 out of 5.
Criterion is often described as the very paradigm of a "niche" collector label, and in that regard, there may be nothing Criterion has offered over the
years that is more "niche" than their series of World Cinema Project offerings, all bearing the rather notable imprimatur of one
Martin Scorsese. This fourth volume follows in the footsteps of the previous three collections and offers another often bracing aggregation of little
or at least
lesser known films, some from rather unusual places and also at times addressing subjects that are not regular fodder for big budget Hollywood
extravaganzas.
Reviews of the previous three volumes in this series, all of which offer some really interesting and worthwhile films, are accessible by clicking on the
following links:
Supplements associated with each film are detailed in the above linked reviews. Additionally, this comes with a really nice perfect bound booklet
containing a wealth of information on the films and their restorations. Three DigiPacks are housed in a slipbox, each with a Blu-ray (with two films) and
two DVDs (one film per disc).
It probably goes without saying that the World Cinema Project releases may not be for everyone, but for those seeking out unusual and in some cases
very rare films, this fourth volume admirably follows in the excellent footsteps of the previous three volumes in providing some amazing lesser known
productions from some exotic locations. Technical merits are generally solid throughout, and the supplements are also very well done.
Recommended.
