It's a good week for blizzards and DVDs: three new Criterion discs, dark comedies with Jennifer Aniston, Cameron Diaz, and Renee Zellweger, and classics from Mexico, Germany, and the darkest Fifties.
1. Pepe Le Moko
Julien Duvivier's flawlessly entertaining 1937 film single-handedly introduced a now classic character: the raffish, conflicted, tragic anti-hero, played to perfection by Jean Gabin.
2. The Good Girl
Jennifer Aniston changed her walk and pulled back her hair to good effect play the role of simple, discontented Justine in Miguel Artega's "The Good Girl." Jake Gyllenhaal, Zooey Deschanel and John C. Reilly round out the cast. 
3. Trouble in Paradise
The famous "touch" is in full effect in Ernst Lubitsch's original screwball comedy, a very witty tale about love, sex, and theft. The Criterion DVD also contains a hilarious silent film Lubitsch shot in 1917.4. The American Friend
Wim Wenders' classic adaptation of Patricia Highsmith's novel "Ripley's Game" stars Bruno Ganz and Dennis Hopper.5. Band of Outsiders
Most weeks, this absolutely stunning Godard film would have been my number one pick: seeing Anna Karina do the Madison is worth the price of this well-endowed Criterion DVD.6. Der Totmacher
Before Moritz Bleibtreu, there was Götz George: the hard-nosed German actor plays a serial killer in this tightly wound psycho drama.7. Nurse Betty
Rene Zellweger goes on a quixotic quest for the heart of a soap opera character (Greg Kinnear) after her husband is brutally murdered in this disturbing comedy by Neil LaBute.8. El Imperio de la fortuna
Based on a story by Mexican writer Juan Rulfo, this film by Arturo Ripstein tells the tragic tale of a villager who tries to find his luck in gambling and cockfighting.9. Imitation of Life
I wasn't a fan of the over-hyped "Far From Heaven," but if you enjoyed Todd Hayne's 50s melodrama, you might want to go back to the Douglas Sirk originals: "Imitation of Life" is the real deal.10. The Last Supper
An amusing black comedy starring Cameron Diaz and others in a terrific ensemble cast.
