Gregory Crewdson: Brief Encounters is Now Available on DVD, and Netflix Streaming

23 May

Netflix have acquired the rights to stream Ben Shapiro’s excellent 77-minute documentary, Gregory Crewdson: Brief Encounters. You can also buy it outright on DVD for $ 24.

Sadly, the Netflix access this is US-only (maybe Canada? nope!) and only for Netflix streaming subscribers. But this is still far and away the biggest audience to have had access to the film.

There’s no telling how long it will be up to stream. Netflix is notorious for having, then not having, the rights to a movie. So just in case, don’t wait too long. You can stream it here.

(Many thanks to reader Tim Kamppinen for the heads-up!)
