The Others 4K 10/28/23

Alejandro Amenábar made a strong English language impression directing Nicole Kidman in this creepy mood-piece about ghostly threats that garnered awards and big box office worldwide. The big prize earned for writer-director Amenábar should be for pulling off in fine form the kind of story repeatedly fumbled by M. Night Shyamalan — this one caught audiences with a lump in their throats, as a classic ghost story should. Reviewer Charlie Largent praises both the fine moviemaking and the class presentation, in 4K Ultra-HD + Blu-ray from The Criterion Collection.
