This past week Criterion put up a ton of new content on their Hulu Plus page, a number totaling 37. What’s even more interesting is that they put 10 films that aren’t in the collection or any of their Eclipse sets either, which is always an exciting time for film fans everywhere. As per usual, I’ll be listing the films with the links to their respective pages. This entry will just focus on the non-Criterion collection films for the moment. Also, to keep this article going, please sign up using this link. I’ve already had one person do so, and every time one of you does so, it gives another 2 weeks. So a huge thank you to anyone who signs up.

In the latest installment of our video series on risk-taking, do-gooding young entrepreneurs, we talk to Neil Shah and Arthur Woods. The pair met at Georgetown University--and both had failed social businesses. They worked together to create a program and community for college students that want to be social entrepreneurs. "This is the best time to fail at something," said Woods. Now in five universities, Compass Partners wants to help students do the best thing for a social entrepreneur, according to Shah, "Find a group of mentors and a community to part of."

Angela Morabito toyed with a few business ideas--a brand of spaghetti sauce, a dating service--until she struck upon the right one. It's called Headlines, a clothing line of "Smartwear for Smart Women" which launched this week. Whether or not the business succeeds, 19-year-old Morabito will have proven the success of a new student-run incubator for social entrepreneurs called Compass Partners.
Arthur Woods and Neil Shah, graduates of the Georgetown University class of 2010, got the idea for Compass Partners while undergrads. In 2007, each of them tried to launch ventures as students (for Shah, a fair trade tea company; for Woods, a farmers' market delivery service). Both failed. "We faced a lot of resistance," Woods tells Fast Company. "There just weren't enough resources for entrepreneurs."
Not ones to accept the failure of a good idea, Woods and Shah launched Compass Partners two years ago, and created a pilot fellowship the following year at Georgetown.
