A wealthy businessman living on the island of La Reunion orders a bride by mail and receives--instead of his intended--a beautiful, mysterious woman with a flimsy excuse. He marries the imposter anyway, but his dream life is shattered when the woman absconds with his bank account and leads him into a murky drama of missing persons and murder.Ultimately, this strange tale transforms into a surprisingly powerful adult love story, in which both participants find themselves able to forgive each other's failings and transgressions--allowing them to move forward without regret, or undue fear of what the future might hold. In the film's finale, Truffaut returns to the same barren, snowbound cabin that he used to such great effect in SHOOT THE PIANO PLAYER, only this time the results are substantially less fatalistic.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseWidescreenSingle Side - Single LayerAudio: Dolby Digital - FrenchAdditional Release Material: Theatrical Trailer

Dog Days (DVD) Dog Days (DVD) » Dog Days (DVD)

DOG DAYS is a scathing satire, exposing the ugly underbelly of contemporary suburban mores. It is the first dramatic feature of notorious documentarian Ulrich Seidl (ANIMAL LOVE). With a keen visual sense and lacerating wit, Seidl weaves together the sordid tales of a large group of people in suburban Austria during a heat wave. There's the Greek divorced couple who continue to live together, miserable and haunted by the memory of their young daughter's death. There's the alarm system salesman who has to find a scapegoat when the cars in a housing complex that he has serviced are vandalized. There's the desperate older woman whose sadistic boyfriend brings a friend along to watch him humiliate her. There's the elderly control freak who weighs every item he's bought at the supermarket when he gets home. Tying them all together is Anna (Maria Hofstatter), who hitches rides to nowhere, verbally assaulting those who pick her up with a constant barrage of inane top ten lists, advertising jingles, and embarrassing personal questions. Seidl gets solid performances from his cast, many of whom are not professional actors. For those who can stomach it, he offers a compelling glimpse of hell on earth.This film was included in the 31st New Directors/New Films 2002 series presented by The Film Society of Lincoln Center and The Department of Film and Media of The Museum of Modern Art in New York City.DVD Features:Region [unknown]Keep CaseWidescreenAdditional Release Material: Interview - 1.

In My Skin (DVD) In My Skin (DVD) » In My Skin (DVD)

After suffering some deep gashes to her leg from an accidental fall, Esther (Marina de Van), a young business writer, becomes preoccupied with her body and skin, especially her wounds. At first she merely caresses her arms, pinches her excess skin, or traces the cuts on her legs, but it isn't long before she is incising wounds directly and aggressively into her own body. Her boyfriend (Laurent Lucas) becomes understandably concerned and angry, but his inability to empathize alienates Esther, and she seeks reclusion to explore her newfound practice. With increased urgency, she turns an unapologetic knife or razor upon her own skin, alternately gorging on the vampiric ecstasy or the brutally masochistic annihilation of her own flesh and blood. The film stays ominously quiet as to what and why this is happening--social, professional, biological pressures all seem relevant but somehow insufficient explanations--and Esther is too indifferent to question her new predilections, too servile to them. While deeply influenced by the work of David Cronenberg (THE FLY, NAKED LUNCH, CRASH), the film is more reliant on feminist and avant garde performance art from the sixties and seventies, namely the work of Marina Abramovic, Ana Mendieta, Carolee Schneemann, and Hermann Nitsch. Intensely graphic, IN MY SKIN examines the body as a boundary and as a battleground for the worlds it stands in between.DVD Features:Region [unknown]Keep CaseAnamorphic Letterboxed Widescreen - 1.85Audio: Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound - FrenchAdditional Release Material: TrailersInteractive Features: Weblinks Subtitle ControlText/Photo Galleries: Filmographies
