26/01/2020

Hollywood, Calif. January 24, 2020 - Netflix is proud to announce that Martin Scorsese's The Irishman, Noah Baumbach's Marriage Story, Steven Bognar and Julia Reichert's American Factory , and Mati Diop's Atlantics will join the Criterion Collection in 2020. These four films will join Alfonso Cuarons three-time Academy Award winning ROMA, which was previously announced as the first Netflix film to receive a home video debut via the Criterion Collection. ROMA will be available on Criterion DVD and Blu-ray on February 11.

Premiering on Netflix and in theaters in 2019, this collection of films from legendary filmmakers will join the important classic and contemporary films in the Criterion library.

The Irishman premiered at the 2019 New York Film Festival and was immediately embraced by cinema lovers. The film went on to premiere internationally at the London Film Festival and screen in countless festivals globally, and then debuted in theaters on November 1, 2019 and on Netflix November 27. The film received five Golden Globe nominations, ten BAFTA nominations, and ten Academy Award nominations, in addition to being named Best Film of the Year by the National Board of Review and NY Film Critics Circle. With his ninth Directing nomination, Martin Scorsese is the most-nominated living director in Academy history.

Marriage Story premiered at the 2019 Venice Film Festival, followed by the Telluride Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival, New York Film Festival and the London International Film Festival. The film, which began its theatrical release on November 6, 2019 and released on Netflix on December 6, has become one of the most critically acclaimed and celebrated films of the year. Marriage Story won Best Film at the Gotham Awards and received six Golden Globe nominations, the most of any film, with Laura Dern winning the Golden Globe and the SAG Award for Best Supporting Actress. This was followed by six Academy Award nominations. It has received multiple SAG, BAFTA and PGA nominations.

American Factory premiered at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival where directors Steven Bognar and Julia Reichert won the Directing Award for U.S. Documentary. Produced with Participant Media, American Factory is the first title presented by President and Mrs. Obama's Higher Ground Productions. Since its August release, the film has gone on to become one of the most honored documentaries of the year, nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary as well as the Best Documentary BAFTA award. For Reichert, American Factory marks her fourth Oscar nomination in a pioneering, fifty year filmmaking career.

Atlantics premiered in competition at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival, where it was awarded the Grand Prix. The film is Diop's feature directorial debut and she is the first black woman to compete for the Palme d'Or at Cannes. The film went on to play the Toronto Film Festival, where Diop was awarded the inaugural Mary Pickford Award, recognizing emerging female talent. Atlantics was on the Academy shortlist for the Best International Feature Film Oscar and Diop received a DGA Nomination for Outstanding Directorial Achievement of a First-Time Feature Film Director.

Each Criterion Collection release will include exclusive behind-the-scenes content, special features and a filmmaker-supervised master. The ROMA Criterion release will include Road to Roma, a new documentary about the making of the film, featuring behind-the-scenes footage and an interview with Cuar n, as well as many other special features.

FILM SYNOPSES

THE IRISHMAN

Robert De Niro, Al Pacino and Joe Pesci star in Martin Scorsese's THE IRISHMAN, an epic saga of organized crime in post-war America told through the eyes of World War II veteran Frank Sheeran, a hustler and hitman who worked alongside some of the most notorious figures of the 20th century. Spanning decades, the film chronicles one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in American history, the disappearance of legendary union boss Jimmy Hoffa, and offers a monumental journey through the hidden corridors of organized crime: its inner workings, rivalries and connections to mainstream politics.

MARRIAGE STORY

MARRIAGE STORY is Academy Award nominated filmmaker Noah Baumbachs incisive and compassionate portrait of a marriage breaking up and a family staying together. The film stars Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver, Laura Dern, Alan Alda, and Ray Liotta co-star.

ATLANTICS

After a group of unpaid construction workers disappears at sea one night in search of a better life abroad, the women they have left behind in Dakar are overwhelmed with a mysterious fever. Ada, 17, secretly grieves for her love Souleiman, one of the departed workers, but she has been promised to another man. After a fire breaks out on her wedding night, a young policeman is sent to investigate the crime. Little does he know that the aggrieved workers have come back as haunting, possessive spirits. While many of them seek vengeance for their unpaid labor, Souleiman has come back for a different purpose - to be with his Ada one last time. Atlantics is the 2019 Grand Prix winner at Cannes Film Festival and marks the feature narrative debut for director Mati Diop.

AMERICAN FACTORY

From Academy Award -nominated and Emmy Award -winners Julia Reichert and Steven Bognar ( The Last Truck: Closing of a GM Plant, A Lion in the House, Union Maids, Seeing Red ) comes AMERICAN FACTORY , a Netflix Original Documentary presented by Higher Ground Productions and Participant Media. The acclaimed film takes a deep dive into a post-industrial Ohio, where a Chinese billionaire opens a new factory in the husk of an abandoned General Motors plant and hires two thousand blue-collar Americans still recovering from the effects of the 2008 recession.
