In August, Criterion presents an array of contemporary classics from around the world. They include two by directors new to the collection: the iconic Bob Fosse, with his Oscar-winning autobiographical musical drama “All That Jazz”; and the beloved Spanish auteur Pedro Almodovar, with his provocative and sensual “Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down!” August will also bring two long-requested titles: John Cassavetes’ raw and emotional “Love Streams,” never before on DVD or Blu-ray in the U.S.; and “Y Tu Mama Tambien,” the sexy smash hit from Oscar-winning “Gravity” director Alfonso Cuaron. All that plus a new Blu-ray edition of Shohei Imamura’s intense serial killer thriller “Vengeance Is Mine.”
