Customer Ratings & Reviews

A boxset to quietly change your life. These films unsettle and reanimate one's perspective with a breezy touch. The two booklets included and the features are quite comprehensive. Getting the opportunity to study Rohmer's screenplays, in the forms of the SIX MORAL TALES book, is its own film school course (Rohmer 201 or 301, to be exact). Criterion chose an excellent array of critics for the other booklet. Armond White and Molly Haskell -- that about says it all as far as diversity of opinion / tone. Couldn't recommend more!

Having owned Eric Rohmer's SIX MORAL TALES when it was first released through Criterion, I was eager to upgrade my collection to Blu-ray. All six remarkable films are erotic and sexy, are contemporary and modern for cinema of the 1960-70's. They are daring in nature, yet philosophically liberating, yet unbiased. Each film deals directly with a succession of encounters of men who are emotionally fragile in nature and the women who deliriously tempt them. The films are character studies set against seasonal landscapes are imaginative vivid. All I can say is watching all six film masterpieces of the personal human experiences are breathtakingly original, yet lasting in the viewers memory. I must congratulate Criterion for preserving these multifaceted personal and deepl moving works in one incredible cinema collection.
