GME DVD Distribution - 2014 New Releases
Now that spring is just around the corner, GME is pleased to announce a forthcoming slate of DVD releases for the current academic semester. Carefully selected from boutique publishers, these DVDs represent works extending from classic silent films through to cutting edge contemporary narratives and avant-garde films. In the winter 2013 issue of Film Quarterly, editor Ruby Rich wrote that "the superb dedication of such entities as the Criterion Collection, Milestone Films, and Gartenberg Media Enterprises, to name key players, are making possible access to a wealth of cinematic history, ephemera, and value-added materials."
A full list of our DVD offerings to date is noted here.

Watch for our upcoming releases of works by avant-garde masters James Benning, Jonas Mekas, Heinz Emigholz, and Hans Richter, classic Soviet films by Sergei Eistenstein and Dziga Vertov & boxed sets of silent cinema featuring Charlie Chaplin's Mutual Comedies and Mack Sennett's Keystone Comedies!
