Now this is how you do a box set! The box that holds 4 seperate films is made to look like a well worn suitcase, while the individual movies are items of clothing you would find inside the suitcase!
Each item of clothing has a strip near the bottom the tells you the title of the film with a small picture from the film itself.
Of course the clothing on the box is also an item of clothing that the main protaginist of the film (Antoine Doinel) wears during the film.
This was one of the first purchases I made from Criterion, definitely the first box set, and at first I didn't think much of it, but after watching the films I got it. The suitcase and clothes match feel of the classic French films. In fact the art work began to scream "art house cinema"
All in all, the box set has some classic art work and really began to set the bar, not only for Criterion films, but for Criterion box art as well!
