From the set of director Shirley Clarke's The Connection (1962) |
Milestone releases the kind of movies that can change your outlook on life. The titles they pick are adventurous, groundbreaking and exciting--and all of them packaged with fascinating and informative special features. I'm always amazed by how many treasures they have saved from obscurity. Founders Amy Heller and Dennis Doros are providing an invaluable service for classic film fans.
