Yes I know-triple post.

The Manchurian Candidate (1962) Blu-Ray. This little best buy exclusive is only 10 bucks. Holy crap-John Frankenheimer is in HD!! Brilliant transfer and simply amazing to see the paranoiac cinematography in 1080p. You start to notice the heavy grain and almost verite type surrealism that was apparent on first viewing. Only downside is that the original mono is not included. Still, the DTS-HD isn't distracting.  An absolute must! (Criterion-can we have Seconds now?)
