And that will bring 1931 to a close. I tried to watch À nous la liberté but the video quality was very bad and I didn't feel like sitting through it.

I recently subscribed to a streaming service called Filmstruck. It has two collections and I signed up for both, Filmstruck's collection and The Criterion Channel. It's mainly what has allowed me to start this back up. Lots of old movies on it. Some movies I still do need to rent through Amazon, but not too many.

The one big downside to Filmstruck is that it actually still uses Flash Player (lol...) on its website.

They have a lot of Japanese movies. The three main directors of this time period were Ozu Yasujirō, Naruse Mikio and Mizoguchi Kenji and Filmstruck has many of their films, so expect to see a few Japanese movies every year. Mizoguchi's films on Filmstruck start up in 1936.

Kurosawa Akira starts up in 1943 as does Kinoshita Keisuke.
