Another month has passed, we’ve added another hundred titles to our collection. The obvious big highlight is the first season of Empire<\/i>, the massively successful hip-hop drama that has been a boon to television in more than one way<\/a>. You might also spot Going Clear<\/i>, the famously damning expos\u00e9 of the Church of Scientology, and the Wachowski’s totally-off-the-rails sci-fi wonder Jupiter Ascending<\/i>.<\/p>\n

But you may notice a ton of oddly named, vaguely threatening-sounding films like A Dangerous Possession<\/i> and The Tattooed Stranger<\/i>. Our media librarian Chris Lewis is currently on a mission to add every single film noir to our collection, and these are some of the new additions. We’re getting pretty close! If you ever need to research the film noir genre, we are more ready for you than you might be prepared for.<\/p>\n

Hit the jump for a full list of what’s new…
