I was all set to post something stupid tonight about Chex Mix product placement in daytime television, but then discovered, quite by accident, that one of my very favorite movies of all time, Night of the Hunter, is being reissued on DVD by the Criterion Collection tomorrow. The DVD, which you can order here, contains over two-and-a-half hours of outtakes, audio commentary by assistant director Terry Sanders, an interview with cinematographer Stanley Cortez, and tons more. If you’ve never seen the film, I’d highly recommend it. And, if you know someone who loves American cinema, I can’t imagine a better Christmas gift… Here, if you’ve never seen it, is a scene I don’t think I’ve ever shared with you before. Pour yourself a big bowl of Chex Mix and check it out.
