My anarchist landlords upstairs have launched a project to consolidate their individual DVD libraries into a central DVD archive, from which they each may borrow freely. And they’ve invited me to participate.
This meant that I had to actually look at what DVDs I own.
To begin with, as the son of a librarian, I am genetically not predisposed towards media asset ownership: the idea of buying a DVD is foreign to me, and so it’s only in the rarest of cases that I do so.
What I’ve found, alas, might be too embarassing to contribute to the hipster archive upstairs:
- Heaven Can Wait
- Roman Holiday
- Sabrina
- Breakfast at Tiffany’s
- Five Wives, Three Secretaries and Me
- Utopia
Not exactly chocked full of hard-edged hipsterism, although you must say there is interesting variety, albeit with an emphasis on Audrey Hepburn films.

You no longer will have to do
You no longer will have to do that foreign “buying a DVD”. You’ll be “building a library”.
