For film aficionados, the Criterion Collection is often the only place to find classic, obscure or remastered titles.
The Collection includes titles from classic masters like Federico Fellini, Robert Altman, Alfred Hitchcock and Francois Truffaut, as well as lesser films from filmmakers who still make movies, like Martin Scorsese.
Starting April 8th, 2019, however, film buffs in Canada and the U.S. will be able to access over 1,000 films part of the Criterion Collection through the company’s ‘Criterion Channel’ over-the-top streaming service.
