Limited edition Import Blu-ray/Region Free pressing. Includes many bonus features. Crime thriller directed by Sidney Lumet and starring Sean Connery and Dyan Cannon. Ex-con Duke Anderson (Connery), backed by an underground mobster, assembles a skilled criminal gang with the intention of burgling every apartment in the block where his girlfriend (Cannon) lives. However, as they rob each flat of cash and jewellery - disguised as removal men - they are unaware that a young, crippled boy has cottoned on to their caper and informed the police on his ham radio. Lumet's dazzling hi-tech caper boasts a fine turn from post-Bond Connery as criminal mastermind planning a heist to rob an entire apartment block of wealthy New Yorkers. Thrilling and edgy, it's also notable for a superb Quincy Jones score, and an early film appearance by Christopher Walken.

Description

One of the most popular foreign films of all time, playing continuously in some theatres for over five years, King of Hearts is a "bright, lilting, whimsical, lyrical" (Cue) comedy thatcleverly satirizes the absurdity of war with a "message [that is] meaningful and entertaining" (Boxoffice). Bumbling Scottish Private Plumpick (Alan Bates) is sent to a village in the beautiful French countryside during World War I on a suicide mission to detonate explosives set bythe retreating German army. The village, soon to be blown sky-high, has been abandoned by its inhabitantsand replaced with escapees from the local insane asylum. Now, with the mentally challenged running the town, Plumpick is crowned King! But his new title brings him his first horrible decision: to carry out his deadly mission or join the ranks of the blissfully ignorant who know nothing about war. King of Hearts is subtle, visually striking and, in short, the "ultimate display of madness" (Life)!
