BARBARIANS RISING tells the epic story of the rise and fall of the Roman Empire from the perspective of the barbarian leaders who brought it down. The Roman Empire called them "barbarians" - savage tribes beyond the fringe of civilization. But they were also some of the fiercest warriors in history, men and women who rose up against absolute power so that they might live free, or die. Through fully dramatized portrayals of barbarian icons- including Hannibal, Spartacus, Arminius, Boudica, and Attila-and commentary by an eclectic group of experts and contributors, this four-part docudrama reveals the true story of a 700-year fight for freedom that would shape the world to come.

Jean Renoir s ruthless love triangle tale, his second sound film, is a true precursor to his brilliantly bitter The Rules of the Game, displaying all of the filmmaker s visual genius and fully imbued with his profound sense of humanity. A hangdog Michel Simon (Boudu Saved from Drowning) cuts a tragic figure as an unhappily married cashier and amateur painter who becomes so smitten with a prostitute that he refuses to see the obvious: that she and her pimp boyfriend are taking advantage of him. Renoir s elegant compositions and camera movements carry this twisting and turning narrative a stinging commentary on class and sexual divides to an unforgettably ironic conclusion. BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES - New, restored 4K digital transfer, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack - Introduction to the film by director Jean Renoir from 1967 - New interview with Renoir scholar Christopher Faulkner - New restoration of On purge bébé (1931), Renoir s first sound film, also starring Michel Simon and never before on Blu-ray or DVD in the U.S. - Jean Renoir le patron: Michel Simon (1966), a ninety-minute French television program featuring a conversation between Renoir and Simon, moderated by filmmaker Jacques Rivette - New English subtitle translation - PLUS: An essay by film scholar and critic Ginette Vincendeau
