This is a list of non-Janus films which are currently streaming on the Criterion Channel for less than a year. Most will very likely only be streaming in three- or six-month engagements. The list is roughly ordered, first by their announced leaving date, and then by my (fairly reasoned) prediction of when they will leave the Channel.
Most non-Janus streaming premieres will likely stream for two years or more and are included in the list for the Criterion Channel Streaming Library.
Expiration dates are noted when known. READ THE NOTES.
1 - 60 have been announced to leave at the end of June 2026
61 - 101 will probably leave at the end of July 2026…
