Andre Gregory and Wallace Shawn Visit the Criterion Collection

The folks at Criterion have released a brand new video showing Andre Gregory and Wallace Shawn visiting their office and picking up some of their favorite films from the now rather famous DVD/Blu-ray closet.

Next week, the Criterion Collection will release on Blu-ray director Jonathan Demme's A Master Builder (2013), starring Andre Gregory, Wallace Shawn, Julie Hagerty, Larry Pine, and Jeff Biehl.

Synopsis: Twenty years after their brilliant cinema-theater experiment Vanya on 42nd Street, Wallace Shawn and André Gregory reunited to produce another idiosyncratic film version of a classic play, this time Henrik Ibsen's Bygmester Solness (Master Builder Solness). Brought pristinely to the screen by Jonathan Demme, this compellingly abstract reimagining features Shawn (who also wrote the adaptation) as a visionary but tyrannical middle-aged architect haunted by figures from his past, most acutely an attractive, vivacious young woman (the breathtaking newcomer Lisa Joyce) who has appeared on his doorstep. Also featuring standout supporting performances by Julie Hagerty, Larry Pine, and Gregory, A Master Builder, like Vanya, is the result of many years of rehearsals, a living, breathing, constantly shifting work that unites theater, film, and dream.
