Wronged Men & Notorious Women: Five Hitchcock Thrillers, 1935-1946 The best of Hitch’s early black-and-whites–“The 39 Steps,” “The Lady Vanishes,” “Spellbound,” “Notorious” and his best-picture winner “Rebecca”–in one set. ($124.95)
BBC’s The Office: The Complete First Season Yes, we know, there’s never anything good on TV. This painfully funny satire of life in corporate hell is the exception that proves the rule. ($29.98)
Scarface: Special Edition When you think about it, Brian De Palma’s 1983 epic isn’t a very good movie. So don’t think about it. Just enjoy the blood, the excess, the Al Pacino overacting. ($26.98)
Monty Python’s The Meaning of Life: Special Edition And now for something completely different. Why buy it? Because the boys reteamed for the release. And because of Mr. Creosote. ($26.98)
Hayao Miyazaki Three-Pack Start the kids young on the animated films of Japan’s supreme storyteller. This set includes “Castle in the Sky,” “Kiki’s Delivery Service” and his masterpiece, the Oscar-winning “Spirited Away.” ($63.99)
Fritz Lang’s Metropolis If you think “The Matrix” is cool, check this one out–and remember, Lang made it in 1927. Perhaps the most influential sci-fi movie ever made. ($29.95)
The Adventures of Indiana Jones Sure, Spielberg and Lucas are just priming the pump for “Indy 4.” But we’ll forgive them because of how absolutely, unbelievably great “Raiders of the Lost Ark” still is. ($69.98)
