Product Description This 1971 Italian/Spanish Giallo is a hugely enjoyable and very stylish murder mystery set on the luxurious Côte d'Azur. Spanish director José María Forqué - who later made the controversial Beyond Erotica - brings together a talented and good looking cast, one of the best cinematographers of the day (Alejandro Ulloa) and a fantastic, lounge style score from Maestro Piccioni to create a twisty, and twisted, tale of deception and revenge. The director's long career at the more prestigious end of Spanish cinema and the presence of award winning scripter Rafael Azcona - who worked with many top European film makers - give the film an edge of sophistication alongside it's enjoyably devious narrative. Review "The story unfolds in an extremely clever way and has a few very unexpected twists and turns... A highly recommended slice of early 70s thriller writing." ---Letterboxd.com "Unpredictable twists and turns along the way to a pleasingly ironic denouement." ---Giallo Fever "Director José María Forqué delivers a winning hand..." ---Adrian Luther Smith - Blood and Black Lace

Product Description THE INCREDIBLY TRUE STORY ABOUT MENAHEM GOLAN & YORAM GLOBUS' CANNON FILMS AND THE MOVIE STUDIO THAT DEFINED THE 1980's THE GO-GO BOYS: THE INSIDE STORY OF CANNON FILMS is a documentary about two Israeli-born cousins, Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus, who in pursuit of the American Dream, turned the Hollywood power structure upside down, producing over 300 films and becoming the most powerful independent film company in the world. Directed by Sundance Grand Jury Prize nominee Hilla Medalia (After the Storm), The Go-Go Boys is an up close and personal documentary that examines the complex relationship between two contradictory personalities whose combined force fueled their success and eventual collapse. Featuring interviews with Jean-Claude Van Damme, Michael Dudikoff, Eli Roth, Boaz Davidson along with Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus themselves, as well as archive footage of Sylvester Stallone, Charles Bronson and Chuck Norris in the definitive documentary about Cannon Films. SPECIAL FEATURES: Original Theatrical Trailer Reversible Artwork Collectible Mini-Poster Review Loaded with clips from the first cousins’ generally tacky library of films, Hilla Medalia’s documentary will serve to those who were around during Cannon Films’ 1980s heyday as a fun reminder of some high-flying low-brow times and will prove amusing to younger viewers with a retroactive soft spot for Chuck Norris and Charles Bronson at their most archetypal. --Todd McCarthy, The Hollywood Reporter A solid celebration of Menahem Golan, Yoram Globus and their famous filmmaking empire… Both an affectionate tribute and a cautionary tale, “The Go-Go Boys” is a solid documentary. --Alissa Simon, Variety The Go-Go Boys presents a fascinating portrait that goes beyond the films and tells an enthralling story of two men who grasped the American Dream in all four hands. They may not have always been working towards something that was really worth the effort, but whatever they did, they did it with passion. --Craig Skinner, Film Divider

Jean-Luc Godard is synonymous with cinema. With the release of Breathless in 1960, he established himself overnight as a cinematic rebel and symbol for the era’s progressive and anti-war youth. Sixty-two years and 140 films later, Godard is among the most renowned artists of all time, taught in every film school yet still shrouded in mystery. One of the founders of the French New Wave, political agitator, revolutionary misanthrope, film theorist and critic, the list of his descriptors goes on and on. Godard Cinema offers an opportunity for film lovers to look back at his career and the subjects and themes that obsessed him, while paying tribute to the ineffable essence of the most revered French director of all time. At the time of his death in September 2022, Jean-Luc Godard had been in the midst of planning another feature, an adaptation of Belgian author Charles Plisnier’s 1937 novel Faux Passports. Though it was never produced, Godard put together the intricate and beautiful Trailer Of A Film That Will Never Exist: Phony Wars, which now stands as his final work, a complex collage of history, politics, and cinema constructed of paper and glue, paintings and photographs, sound and silence. He accompanied it with the following text: “Rejecting the billions of alphabetic diktats to liberate the incessant metamorphoses and metaphors of a necessary and true language by returning to the locations of past film shoots, while keeping track of modern times.” Special Features: • TRAILER OF A FILM THAT WILL NEVER EXIST: PHONY WARS (directed by Jean-Luc Godard, 2023) • LILA: Inside Godard’s cutting room with his Assistant Editor, Lila Lakshmanan (2023) • GODARD CINEMA Theatrical Trailer

Winner of the Jury Prize at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival, Goodbye to Language is a triumphant masterpiece from Jean-Luc Godard. Using 3D technology to mind-bending effect, the film follows a couple whose relationship breaks down along with the images, which in it's second half takes a dog's-eye view of the world. It is a meditation on history and illusion that creates 3D effects more spectacular than any Hollywood blockbuster, figures merging and weaving across the screen along with the film's ideas about romantic love and being-in-the-world. It has the feeling of a final statement, but knowing Godard's penchant for re-invention, hopefully it is yet another beginning to an extraordinary career.

As the price on each head is collected one-by-one, only a mute gunslinger named Silence (Jean-Louis Trintignant The Conformist) stands between the innocent refuges and the greed and corruption that the bounty hunters represent. But, in this harsh, brutal world, the lines between right and wrong aren't always clear and good doesn't always triumph.

Review I'm not generally one for nostalgia, but I do regret the loss of a certain kind of craziness that used to flourish in movies the kind that is on rich and ripe display in The Great Silence, a 1968 Italian western by Sergio Corbucci that is only now receiving a proper theatrical release in this country. There is something about the film's brazen mixing of incompatible elements that defies categorization, imitation or even sober critical assessment. It's anarchic and rigorous, sophisticated and goofy, heartfelt and cynical. The score, by Ennio Morricone, is as mellow as wine. The action is raw, nasty and blood-soaked. The story is preposterous, the politics sincere... The mood is sometimes jaunty, but The Great Silence is no joke, and the fatalism of its ending serves as an implicit critique of the sentimental optimism of many Hollywood westerns. Power speaks louder than silence. --A.O. Scott, The New York Times Packs a bleak, bloody punch...[and] goes out with a devastating bang. - Simon Abrams, The Village Voice Brutal, bleakly beautiful spaghetti Western filmed on stark locations in the Dolomites, with one of the most uncompromising and unforgettable finales ever filmed. --Leonard Maltin Sensationally grim...be prepared for a holy bludgeoning. - David Edelstein, New York Magazine The greatest spaghetti Western ever made. --Alex Cox, director of Sid & Nancy and Repo Man

A key forerunner of the new breed of dark, brooding westerns that would cast a shadow over America’s frontier folklore, this subversive psychological saga sounds a death knell for the myth of the outlaw hero. In one of his most morally complex roles, Gregory Peck stars as Jimmy Ringo, an infamous gunslinger looking to hang up his holsters and start a new life, but whose reputation draws him inexorably into a cycle of violence and revenge from which he cannot escape. Directed with taut efficiency by the versatile studio-era craftsman Henry King, and shot in striking deep-focus style by master cinematographer Arthur C. Miller, The Gunfighter forgoes rough-and-tumble action in favor of an elegiac exploration of guilt and regret that speaks to the anxious soul of postwar America.

Set in a Turkish-occupied Greek village shortly after World War I, Jules Dassin’s stunning He Who Must Die tells the story of the townspeople’s efforts to stage their Passion Play, an event that occurs once every seven years. The leading citizens choose who will play the parts: a stuttering young shepherd is chosen as Jesus; the town butcher as Judas; the town prostitute as Mary Magdalene. But as the movie unfolds, the Passion becomes a reality, and the villagers actualize their biblical roles against the tragic backdrop of a country uprooted by war and poverty. Adapted from author Nikos Kazantzakis (Zorba the Greek, The Last Temptation of Christ) by the world-renowned Jules Dassin, the director of Rififi, Never on Sunday and Topkapi, this powerful film asks: What would happen if Jesus came down to Earth a second time? The extraordinary international cast includes Melina Mercouri, Pierre Vaneck, Jean Servais, Carl Möhner, Grégoire Aslan, Gert Fröbe, René Lefèvre, Roger Hanin, Nicole Berger, Maurice Ronet and Fernand Ledoux.

Dark roads, a stormy night and Jean Gabin are the primary ingredients in Hi-Jack Highway, aka Gas-Oil, a French noir gem. Gabin (Razzia Sur La Chnouf) cements his status as one of the pillars of French cinema with a moody and moving performance. And it gives Jeanne Moreau (Touchez Pas Au Grisbi), one of France's greatest actresses, one of her first great roles. After spending the night with his girlfriend Alice (Moreau), trucker Jean (Gabin) encounters a dead body on the road home. He reports the incident to the police but they suspect that Jean is responsible for the death. And then there's that nasty gang of crooks who also are harassing him. Jean is a victim of circumstance and forces beyond his control are closing in on him. But with Alice as his emotional base, he aims to rouse his trucker friends and turn the tables on the forces against him, in this dark and gripping drama co-written by Michel Audiard (Deadly Circuit) and directed by Gilles Grangier (Speaking of Murder).

Suffused with intoxicating romanticism, History Is Made at Night is a sublime paean to love from Frank Borzage, classic Hollywood’s supreme poet of carnal and spiritual desire. On the run through Europe from her wealthy, cruelly possessive husband, an American (Jean Arthur) is thrown together by fate with a suave stranger (Charles Boyer)—and soon the two are bound in a consuming, seemingly impossible affair that stretches across continents and brings them to the very edge of catastrophe. Lent a palpable erotic charge by the chemistry between its leads, this delirious vision of lovers beset by the world passes through a dizzying array of tonal shifts—from melodrama to romantic comedy to noir to disaster thriller—smoothly guided by Borzage’s unwavering allegiance to the power of love. Blu-ray Special Edition Features • New 2K digital restoration, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack • New conversation between author Hervé Dumont (Frank Borzage: The Life and Films of a Hollywood Romantic) and film historian Peter Cowie • Interview from 2019 with critic Farran Smith Nehme about director Frank Borzage’s obsession with romantic love • Audio excerpts of a 1958 interview with Borzage from the collection of the George Eastman Museum • Radio adaptation of the film from 1940, broadcast by The Screen Guild Theater and starring Charles Boyer • New program about the restoration • English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing • PLUS: An essay by critic Dan Callahan

Director Philippe de Broca (King of Hearts, On Guard) and actor Jean-Paul Belmondo's (Breathless) most successful collaborations, That Man From Rio was a riotous cut above the James Bond spoofs of the day and Up to His Ears, its follow-up, notched up the action even higher. Set against the beauty of Brazil, Belmondo and Francoise Dorleac are in hot pursuit of a stolen Amazonian statuette, while others pursue them for the same treasure. This recognized inspiration for Raiders of the Lost Ark was nominated for an Oscar for Best Writing, Story and Screenplay. In Up to His Ears, Belmondo plays a bored and recently bankrupted millionaire who is convinced to allow someone to murder him so that he can leave the insurance money is his will. He's fine with the plan until he meets a stunning stripper (Ursula Andress) and tries to reverse his deal, setting off a madcap chase across China and Tibet.

Screen legend Jean-Paul Belmondo (Le Professionnel, Le Doulos) is “L’Alpagueur,” a tough-as-nails mercenary named Roger Pilard who does what the police are unable to do—for a price, of course. After busting a drug-trafficking ring in Rotterdam, Pilard is put on the trail of “L’Épervier” (“The Hawk”), a ruthless thief who employs petty criminals to help him rob banks and then murders them. One of these criminals narrowly escapes death, but is captured and put in prison. Pilard, adopting a false identity, arranges to be placed in the same cell. There he learns how to track down “The Hawk,” who, in the meantime, has carried out a final act of vengeance. Will the hunter get his hawk?

Six robbers meet split their loot but before they can even get to it, the are mysteriously killed. One by one. One safe. Six keys. Six robbers, each expecting their cut of a diamond heist when they finally meet to divide their spoils after months in hiding. But before they can open the safe that guards their glittering hoard, they are mysteriously killed, one by one. With fear and suspicion growing among the shrinking group of survivors, it becomes clear that one of them is trying to take all the diamonds for themselves! Directed and co-written by Cesare Canevari (MATALO!), "A Hyena in the Safe" is a remarkable caper/giallo crossover filled with dark humor and moments of psychedelic glory. The fallout from this heist will make your head spin with its inventive, over-the-top deaths and a free-spirited attitude that only the flamboyant 60s could produce. Celluloid Dreams is proud to present this beautifully restored version, bringing the film to high definition for the first time.

This prismatic portrait of the days and nights of a party girl in sixties Rome is a revelation. On the surface, I Knew Her Well, directed by Antonio Pietrangeli, plays like an inversion of La dolce vita with a woman at its center, following the gorgeous, seemingly liberated Adriana (Divorce Italian Style s Stefania Sandrelli) as she dallies with a wide variety of men, attends parties, goes to modeling gigs, and circulates among the rich and famous. Despite its often light tone, though, the film is a stealth portrait of a suffocating culture that regularly dehumanizes people, especially women. A seriocomic character study that never strays from its complicated central figure while keeping us at an emotional remove, I Knew Her Well is one of the most overlooked films of the sixties, by turns hilarious, tragic, and altogether jaw-dropping. BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES - New 4K digital restoration, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack - New interview with actor Stefania Sandrelli - New interview with film scholar Luca Barattoni about the career of director Antonio Pietrangeli - Trailer - New English subtitle translation - PLUS: An essay by journalist and author Alexander Stille

Terror lives in the shadows in a pair of mesmerizingly moody horror milestones conjured from the imagination of Val Lewton, the visionary producer-auteur who turned our fears of the unseen and the unknown into haunting excursions into existential dread. As head of RKO’s B-horror-movie unit during the 1940s, Lewton, working with directors such as Jacques Tourneur and Mark Robson, brought a new sophistication to the genre by wringing chills not from conventional movie monsters but from brooding atmosphere, suggestion, and psychosexual unease. Suffused with ritual, mysticism, and the occult, the poetically hypnotic I Walked with a Zombie and the shockingly subversive The Seventh Victim are still-tantalizing dreams of death that dare to embrace the darkness. 4K UHD + BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES New 4K digital restorations of both films, with uncompressed monaural soundtracks One 4K UHD disc of the films and one Blu-ray with the films and special features Audio commentary on I Walked with a Zombie featuring authors Kim Newman and Stephen Jones Audio commentary on The Seventh Victim featuring film historian Steve Haberman Interview with film historian Imogen Sara Smith Audio essays from Adam Roche’s podcast The Secret History of Hollywood featuring stories about the casts, crews, and productions of both films Shadows in the Dark: The Val Lewton Legacy (2005), a documentary featuring Newman; Val E.

When she takes a job caring for a comatose woman on a Caribbean island, a young nurse (Frances Dee) finds herself plunged into a mysterious world where the ghosts of slavery haunt the present and Vodou priests have the power to summon the living dead. Sugarcane swaying in a moonlit field, the hypnotic beat of ceremonial drums, the relentless pull toward death—the otherworldly atmosphere of this bold reimagining of Jane Eyre is as close as studio-era Hollywood ever came to pure dream-state surrealism. THE SEVENTH VICTIM “Death is good” is how producer Val Lewton summarized the message of his films, a credo that received its most explicit expression in this strikingly nihilistic shocker, the first film directed by regular Lewton editor Mark Robson. Kim Hunter makes her film debut as a young boarding-school student who, in search of her missing sister (proto-goth icon Jean Brooks), travels to New York’s bohemian Greenwich Village, where she uncovers a sinister shadow world of devil-worshippers and murder. And what about that mysterious room furnished with nothing but a chair and a hangman’s noose? With its daring treatment of depression and queerness, The Seventh Victim has haunted the margins of cinema for decades, its radical bleakness undiminished by time.

An unpredictable journey that careers from slapstick to tragedy, this film, directed by Dino Risi (the original SCENT OF a WOMAN), is a wildly entertaining commentary on the pleasures and consequences of the good life. A holy grail of commedia all'italiana, IL SORPASSO is so fresh and exciting that one can easily see why it has long been adored in Italy.
