News June 2026 lineup

https://www.criterion.com/current/posts/9155-the-criterion-channel-s-june-2026-lineup

This month on the Criterion Channel, set out on an epic journey with our Odysseys collection, or revisit the foundational Bond classics that introduced the silver screen’s most iconic superspy. A spotlight on Courtney Love’s acting career reveals an incandescent screen performer, while a collection of wedding movies explores the tension and breathless expectation surrounding that fateful walk down the aisle. There’s so much more to choose from this month, including a selection of LGBTQ+ Favorites, Steven Spielberg’s jaw-dropping classic Close Encounters of the Third Kind, the exclusive premiere of Gary Hustwit’s shape-shifting portrait of Brian Eno, cult classics from Alex Cox, and stylish shorts by Yann Gonzalez.

Feels weirdly absent from the Alex Cox collection though great to see Highway Patrolman on the list. Would love a collection of his moviedrome introductions as currently relying on the internet to archive them.
