Australian Lunar Series III 2026 Year of the Horse 1/2oz Silver Proof CoinAccording to Chinese tradition, the emperor ordered a great race between all the animals on Earth to determine who should occupy 12 positions in the lunar calendar.

According to Chinese tradition, the emperor ordered a great race between all the animals on Earth to determine who should occupy 12 positions in the lunar calendar. In pursuit of the fifth placed dragon, the free-spirited horse galloped towards the finish line with determination. In a sudden twist, the horse was cheated by the snake which was wrapped around its hoof, causing it to lurch back in fright. Despite the setback, the resilient horse claimed seventh place.

Those born under the sign of the Chinese Lunar Horse in 2026, 2014, 2002, 1990 and every 12th preceding year are said to be independent, charismatic and love a sense of adventure. Being passionate and spirited, they are gifted with natural charm and an ability to inspire others.

The coin’s reverse portrays a representation of a majestic mare alongside her young foal, both depicted with elegant manes in a striking galloping stance. The background includes towering mountains and the lush serenity of grasslands. Also included in the design is the Chinese character for ‘Horse’, the inscription ‘HORSE 2026’, and The Perth Mint’s ‘P’ mintmark. The coin’s obverse bears the Dan Thorne effigy of His Majesty King Charles III, as well as the weight, fineness, and the monetary denomination.

Great transfer of a classic set -- except borked Les mistons
A really nice set of one of French cinema's greatest "franchises" -- though we did not call them that back then. The tone shifts after the 400 blows of course. But it sort of makes sense, too, as things change for the character as well. But beware, Criterion failed to grade the Les mistons short film correctly. Looks a lot like HDR/SDR gamma was switched or something similar. You can see it from the opening studio logo and credits which are not the right color. Hopefully they will issue a fix. Until then you may want to wait.

Some of Truffaut's greatest works... and they're wonderful
A reviewer here called these a "waste of time" and "weird movies," giving the set 1 star. Sorry, pal, maybe critically acclaimed films by one of France's--or the world's--most important filmmakers isn't your thing. Nothing "weird" about these very accessible, realistic movies about human beings and life. Truffaut did with this series over a course of 20 years what Richard Linklater did in one movie ("Boyhood")... but between 1959 - 1979, Truffaut's attempt was more ambitious, daring, and envelope-pushing. Lead actor Jean-Pierre Leaud goes from a 14 year old to a guy in his 30s, and he's wonderful in every episode. Each film is touching, funny, dramatic, and worth seeing for anyone interested in world cinema. "The 400 Blows" is Truffaut's debut feature, and what a great one it is. It's more serious than the others in this series, and is likely the most lauded. "Antoine & Colette" is a short film made 2-3 years later. "Stolen Kisses" gets more into comedy and it's a delight. "Bed and Board" continues where the previous one left off. "Love on the Run" is decidedly the weakest but is still enjoyable. Truffaut died too young five years after that one was made. One wonders if he and Leaud might have made another entry in the late 80s or even the 90s. Great stuff.

What a Fantastic Release on 4k/BD by Criterion!
I have enjoyed my DVD set of these great Truffaut for years, and am so happy to see this 4K set about to be released. Will be ordering this and looking forward to it. There are copious extras, a booklet, and the full set of Doinel films, including Antoine and Colette. The first film in the series, THE 400 BLOWS, is considered one of the greatest films of French cinema, and of the Nouvelle Vague (New Wave). It's by turns entertaining, funny, thought-provoking, and heartbreaking. That movie and BED AND BOARD, a domestic comedy that is truly funny, are my favorites. But all the movies here are worth seeing and owning. Criterion rocks.

Be adventurous
Don’t pay attention to that other review. I’ve actually watched all of the Antoine Dionel films and they’re excellent. The 400 Blows is possibly Truffaut’s best. I can’t wait to receive my pre-ordered set of these great films. I hope Jules and Jim hits 4K soon. If you enjoy foreign films but haven’t seen these, you owe it to yourself to at least stream them. If you love them like I do, investing in this set is a no-brainer.

Amazon eGift Card Makes a Great Gift and So Easy to Give
Denomination: 0, Design Name: You're the best. (Animated)
I was so thankful that I could get this gift card on the Amazon website because I just had back surgery and I couldn't get out to the store to get my daughter something for helping me for a week. I just really wanted to show her my appreciation for everything she had done. I didn't know that you could do this and then I Googled it and it said I could. It was so effortlessly and so easy to do. I definitely will be doing this in the future now that I know how well it went.
