Negative Positive
Title: Criterion presents a great package of a great film.
Review: Yes, this edition of Bicyle Thieves costs more than hot contemporary releases, but it is well worth it. You get a classic film along with great reading material about the film and a bonus DVD explaining why this film is a classic. Also, it sits nicely on any bookshelf. I especially recommend this film to younger viewers as a warning againt allowing society and governments to dehumanize its citizens (especially the poor). This film makes you think about what it means to be a human being--something that today's films seem not to do, The Departed, for instance. Obviously a worthy addition to anyone's film collection.
