Jude Law’s Closet Picks

The actor talks about what Andrei Tarkovsky’s films have taught him about stillness in cinema, reflects on the various adaptations of THE TALENTED MR. RIPLEY, and shares his formative experience of seeing London on-screen in MY BEAUTIFUL LAUNDRETTE and MONA LISA.

Jude Law's mom going from Local Hero to Night of the Hunter might make the coolest person ever

[jjgreen]

I could listen to Jude Law talk all day. His voice is soothing. He’s also very intelligent and thoughtful.

"This is the way I shopped for films" This is the way you SHOULD shop for films. Case in hand, description on the back, incredible art on the front. No one should have an algorithm keeping them in a box. Pushing your own boundaries.

[NoirFan]

Nobody forgets it when they see The Night Of The Hunter. Whether it be Cortez's extraordinarily unique cinematography or Mitchum giving one of the all-timer chilling performances. It's one of the great classics.

[Cadinho]

Jude Law is one of the most underrated actors of his generation and it makes me happy to see many people on here give this man the respect, as well as love that he deserves.

Also, thank you Criterion for always blessing us with so many big names through the years and seeing their film picks.

Jude Law’s mum deserves a lot of credit, it seems

[RandyWhite-et]

He has one of the best filmographies ever

[sacosec]

He was sensational in The Talented Mr. Ripley and should have won the Oscar for that performance.

"I don't remember names, I remember experiences". Ain't that just beautiful?

[ivandavies]

The wages of fear has one of the most incredible editing sequences ever captured on film, the wind, the tobacco, the trucks…you will know when you see it. Brilliant film.

[opwave]

No matter who you bring to the closet, their enthusiasm for the films is always infectious. Jude Law gave us great insight.

[drumtum]

Mona Lisa is so fantastic. Bob Hoskins shining Great movie with a heart of gold.

[THEGlassIED]

Just watched A.I. last night. Jude Law was amazing in that movie.

[beeman]

I've enjoyed Jude's performances since first seeing him in Gattaca and Enemy At The Gates. Great to see him visit the Criterion film library.

[Onibabayaga]

Jude Law selecting Stalker as his first pick = GOAT.

[christopherhaines]

Physical media will never die. Great picks. Especially Stalker and The Night of the Hunter.

[propjoe]

Glad to see Wages of Fear being chosen. That's a fantastic movie.

[NomadicBrian]

'The Wages of Fear' is a terrific film. One of those films that keep you riveted to your seat. 'Mona Lisa' great film and the acting was superb including Michael Caine doing bad exquisitely.

[pennyaldente]

I absolutely LOVE Local Hero. Truly one of my favorite movies of all time and the best soundtrack ever

[musashi-san____]

I love his wholesome childish giggle at the end. So human.
