i thought i'd be able to recommend stuff by looking at the covers of the unseen cinema boxset or the three kino avant-garde double boxes ... but i can't remember which film is which or which of the classics i kind of do remember was actually really good and not merely a classic ... so i'll just recommend the free cinema box from bfi, very few duds on that one
