Anyone else have issues with Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown? The whole time I was watching it there were little audio hiccups, it was kind of annoying. Everything else was playing fine.

I use Chrome on a pc, and when there's a problem I clear browser cache and both of these:

Website Storage Settings panel

Protected Content Playback Settings panel

The other day the audio wasn't in sync, so I cleared both above and chrome's cache, restarted filmstruck, and it solved the problem.

Knock on wood..., I haven't seen the spinning wheel for ages.

Kristin Thompson short added: Observations on Film Art No. 3: Abbas Kiarostami - The Character of Landscape, the Landscape of Character and Laurence Olivier's Hamlet.

I'm having this issue on almost everything that I watch on Filmstruck. No problem with other streaming. Its sounds almost like feed-back. Will try clearing cache as recommended.

Corman's Masque of the Red Death is up on the Criterion channel. If it isn't another temporary streaming rights situation, this may be the reason the first Shout! Vincent Price set went oop.

Since last night, the Filmstruck website hasn't worked for either my S/O or I on our computers (Chrome; both Windows and Mac). Anyone else having this problem?

Chrome on a PC w/Windows Pro 7 here working fine.

There is an unusual thing that I've noticed the last few days, maybe a week(?) - when I first turn on my computer, open the browser, then open Filmstruck, invariably it never loads the first time, and since I know this I open another Filmstruck tab and close the one that does not load. Only happens on the first time opening it after power up (I always power down when I'm done - many times / day).

Highly recommend the Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio. Woody Harrelson is tremendous as the father to Moore's brood in one of the most fascinatingly pathetic character portraits in memory. The whole film is excellent anti-nostalgia and tells an incredible story so unlikely that of course it is based on a true story!

I've been watching several of the Chris marker selections, letter from Siberia is a delight, last year at this time I watched a lot of the 1950s Disney docs, this is like an antidote to all that.

michaelladisch wrote: The Lone Wolf films White Heaven in Hell, Baby Cart in the Land of Demons, and Baby Cart at the River Styx are also on the Criterion Channel, though I've never seen them on the Recently Added list. It might be worth browsing all titles from time to time to see what's available.
What puzzles me is that Baby Cart in Peril is not available. Is it an oversight? Or are streaming right different form the other five films?
Baby Cart in Peril dropped.

Ride in the Whirlwind (3 supplements, commentary)
Hoop Dreams (5 supplements)
The Seventh Seal (5 supplements)
A Brighter Sunny Day (4 supplements, commentary)
