I can certainly recommend Yakuza. Seen that a couple of times, really good. Nice and violent and probably Mitchum's last great performance.

Not seen Adrian Messenger though.

Point Blank is a terrific film. You did well getting that in my opinion. Long been a fave of mine. Marvin is cool as f*ck in that.

Adrian Messenger sounds intriguing but a few reviews I came across suggest it's not all that.

Well Yakuza and something else for my next pair. Bad Day at Black Rock piqued my interest yesterday.

'The List of Adrian Messenger' used to be regularly screened on television, back in the 80's, and I seem to recall that I quite enjoyed it

After some precision surgical slicing I finally wrestled 10 Indicator releases free from their bubble wrap from the recent(ish) sale, this was package #2

All clear cases too. Surprised they didn't throw in a blue one to annoy.

My Curse of the Mummy's Tomb is in a blue case.

Ghosts of Mars and Breakout too.

I would have swapped it with one I don't care about, that kind of thing upsets me luckily none of my Indicator copies are in blue cases and I've bought them from multiple sources over the years!

With me it's all about the films not the cases. Criterion and Arrow among others have taught me that over the years with their terrible artworks.

Although they do all look nice on their respective shelves now i'm all organised.
