Fresh from their repertory re-releases, Ida Lupino's Film Noir thriller The Hitch-Hiker, and Bette Gordon's Variety, a feminist time capsule of seedy early-'80s Times Square. Finally, those looking for spiritual calm in these tumultuous times can find it in Walk With Me, a Benedict Cumberbatch-narrated portrait of Thich Nhat Hanh, who helped popularize the teachings of mindfulness in the Western world.

Since its launch last fall, Kino Now has grown to more than 1000 titles individually offered for digital rental or purchase -- no subscription necessary -- culled from the rich library of Kino Lorber and its partner labels. Additionally, a new selection of approximately 50 titles are added to the platform each month.
