Anyone looking to start up an instant film collection could do worse than grabbing the United Artists 30-Film Deluxe Giftset, featuring (duh) 30 classic films on 46 discs…many two-disc editions, obviously. At 60%–and free shipping, a factor on a set this size–$116 means you’re paying less than four dollars a movie, and not much over two dollars a disc.
Here’s the line-up:
Disc 1: Marty P&S Disc 2: Twelve Angry Men WS Disc 3: Some Like It Hot WS Disc 1 Disc 4: Some Like It Hot WS Disc 2 Disc 5: The Alamo WS Disc 6: The Apartment WS Disc 7: The Magnificent Seven WS Disc 1 Disc 8: The Magnificent Seven WS Disc 2 Disc 9: Judgment at Nuremberg WS Disc 10: Westside Story WS Disc 1 Disc 11: Westside Story WS Disc 2 Disc 12: Birdman of Alcatraz WS Disc 13: Dr. No WS Disc 1 Disc 14: Dr. No WS Disc 2 Disc 15: Manchurian Candidate WS Disc 16: The Great Escape WS Disc 1 Disc 17: The Great Escape WS Disc 2 Disc 18: The Pink Panther WS Disc 19: The Greatest Story Ever Told WS Disc 1 Disc 20: The Greatest Story Ever Told WS Disc 2 Disc 21: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly WS Disc 1 Disc 22: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly WS Disc 2 Disc 23: Chitty Chitty Bang Bang WS Disc 1 Disc 24: Chitty Chitty Bang Bang WS Disc 2 Disc 25: Thomas Crown Affair (1968) WS Disc 26: The Battle of Britain WS Disc 1 Disc 27: The Battle of Britain WS Disc 2 Disc 28: Midnight Cowboy WS Disc 1 Disc 29: Midnight Cowboy WS Disc 2 Disc 30: Fiddler on the Roof WS Disc 1 Disc 31: Fiddler on the Roof WS Disc 2 Disc 32: Rocky WS Disc 1 Disc 33: Rocky WS Disc 2 Disc 34: Annie Hall P&S Disc 35: A Bridge Too Far WS Disc 1 Disc 36: A Bridge Too Far WS Disc 2 Disc 37: The Spy Who Loved Me WS Disc 1 Disc 38: The Spy Who Loved Me WS Disc 2 Disc 39: Raging Bull WS Disc 1 Disc 40: Raging Bull WS Disc 2 Disc 41: Rain Man WS Disc 42: Manchurian Candidate WS Disc 43: Goldeneye WS Disc 44: The Birdcage WS Disc 45: Bowling for Columbine WS Disc 46: Hotel Rwanda WS
For what it’s worth, the complete 40 disc Buffy collection will similarly be on ‘lightning’ sale later today, and I’ll link to that when it’s up, too. I assume the $200 SRP set will be selling for far closer to $100.
