It's a sad day in Boston. My local independent video store is closing for good. They were champions of things other than the latest blockbuster: foreign films, gay films, documentaries, "camp and cult". I much preferred patronizing them rather than some chain store (although, they're all gone too).
On the good side, they are selling everything! All DVDs for $8.
Needless to say, my library has grown considerably in the last twenty-four hours. I was able to round out my Heath collection with Brothers Grimm and The Order; also Jake with Moonlight Mile, October Sky and The Good Girl, even City Slickers!
A few other gems included Days of Heaven (thanks, Leslie) and All the Pretty Horses.
Hello, Netflix...
