The best DVDs and Blu-rays of 2013, Sight & Sound

Web video-on-demand services may be finally getting their acts together – 2013 was the year our parent institute the BFI joined the likes of Lovefilm, Netflix, Mubi and Curzon Home Cinema in the fray with its BFI Player – but cinephiles with shelf space know DVDs and especially Blu-rays are still the best way of bringing home the movie mountain, in terms of quality, flexibility and contextual extras. And with back-catalogue authorities like Arrow, the BFI, Carlotta Films, Criterion, Flicker Alley, Masters of Cinema, Olive Films, Second Run and Second Sight digging ever more expertly into the mines of film history, these discs also offer as rich an adventure through cinema as many a repertory house, opening up seams from the lost to the leftfield, and from established classics to the newly minted.
