CONTEST!!!!!!!!!!!

WIN A FREE DVD or Blu-Ray of Lee Chang-dong’s SECRET SUNSHINE (the choice is yours)

so the Criterion Corner blog is on the precipice of hitting a neat milestone of some kind, and i want to express my gratitude to all the folks out there who’ve taken the time to share in the site (and possibly read the cinematical / movies.com columns, for which this site serves as a supplement). the blog has quickly become a reliably fun and rewarding experience for me, and that certainly wouldn’t be the case if i felt as though i were launching all this stuff into the void. so as my way of saying thanks and continuing a proud tradition of shameless self-promotion (and also drawing attention to a life-altering masterpiece i fear could be lost in the Criterion shuffle), i’m giving out a copy of Lee Chang-dong’s SECRET SUNSHINE!

trust me, you want this. 

TO ENTER: JUST RE-BLOG THIS POST. i’ll pick a random re-blogger at midnight on the morning of Friday, 8/5/2011 and message them for details. Secret Sunshine will be released on 8/23/2011, and the disc will be mailed off shortly thereafter.

and once more, with feeling: THANK YOU. - David
