Three Colors: Blue, White, Red (The Criterion Collection) [4K UHD]

Incredible films, but the packaging feels incredibly cheap and flimsy. For such an expensive 4K set, I expected much better quality and was very disappointed with the cardboard packaging.

If you are reading this, I suspect you already know about these films. The transfers are quite good to 4K. The boxes also include Blu-ray discs that I haven't viewed. I use only stereo sound and it's also good. I love this trilogy.

This is spiritual cinema. Three films that present a character in a moral crisis that they must resolve. The resolution of each tale is not explicitly Christian but in each case thoughtfully uplifting. Lots of usual extras here also - explaining how and why these films came to be. Very highly recommended package. a Polish film-maker working in France in the mid 1990s.

Movies themselves are wonderful, but be careful if you order this Criterion 4k trilogy. I ended up returning both the original and the replacement because both of them had 2/3 of the 4k discs scratched up, and one of them had a 4k disc loose in the case and scratched even more. There’s some kind of problem either happening at the factory or with the design of the case itself.

This is not opinion of edition (in case of Criterion, of course, of high quality) but of films. These are probably the worst theatrical films of this most overestimated Polish filmmmaker and one of the most pretentious in the world. Only living in Poland (or, at least, in Europe) during communist era (as I, unfortunately, did), you could feel or recognize the falseness pretentiousness and artificiality of Kieślowski's works. I don't understand how can he be so highly valued by critics of the world or compared (it's really a shame) to Bergman or Antonioni.
