The Criterion Collection

Criterion vs. Masters of Cinema

Created 07/16/12

Here I compare titles in common to MoC and Criterion. Will try to keep this updated but please leave comments if it is out of date/inaccurate.

Many Criterion releases have better (different at least) supplements so often it may be a good idea to hang on to the Criterion.

Some notable titles not in Criterion:

Touch of Evil
Gospel According to St. Matthew
Le Silence de la Mer (Melville)
Double Idemnity
Une femme mariee (Godard)
Lifeboat (Hitchcock)


MoC features Lang, Murnau, Pialat, Pasolini, Imamura, Mizoguchi, Lubitsch, Ichikawa

Some different Antonioni, Sirk, Visconti, Franju, Ford
