If Prime Video’s regular movie selection doesn’t feel deep enough, a new streaming video channel from one of the most noted indie film distributors is here to help. This week, Kino Lorber launched Kino Film Collection, a new addition to Amazon’s SVOD line-up, and one that’s filled with an impressive array of titles both recent and classic.
Here’s a teaser showcasing just some of the titles Kino Film Collection has on offer:
Kino Film Collection, available via Prime Video Channels, runs $5.99 per month and offers access to “new Kino releases fresh from theaters, along with hundreds of films from its expansive library of more than 4,000 titles, many now streaming for the first time,” according to a press release.
You want names? Some of the talent you’ll find includes works by Todd Haynes, Yorgos Lanthimos, Hou Hsiao-Hsien, Christian Petzold, Lina Wertmuller, Ken Loach, Andrei Tarkovsky, Jafar Panahi, Taika Waititi, Oscar Micheaux, Susan Sontag, Jean-Luc Godard, Bruno Dumont, Jia Zhangke, Bernardo Bertolucci, and Fritz Lang. You want titles? Here are just a few: right now, you can stream the new 4K restoration of Bertolucci’s The Conformist, as well as silent masterpieces like F.W. Murnau’s Nosferatu and Sergei Eisenstein’s Battleship Potemkin.
“I’m excited about Kino Film Collection as a destination for our newest films fresh from festivals and theaters, as well as newly launched restorations of classics and curated selections from our vast library, many streaming for the first time,” said Richard Lorber, Kino Lorber’s president and CEO. “Over the last 45 years, we’ve introduced electrifying new films from directors at the vanguard around the world to American audiences, and built a library and brand synonymous with cinematic innovation, distinguished curation, and enduring quality. The Kino Film Collection will be the place to go to find the classics of tomorrow and the best of cinema past.” Visit the Kino Film Collection’s site to learn more.
