Product Description
ALAIN ROBBE-GRILLET: SIX FILMS 1964-1974 (Blu-ray Box Set)
Perhaps best known as the writer of Alain Resnais’ classic
cine-conundrum Last Year of Marienbad, Alain Robbe-Grillet was
also the director a number of stylish, controversial and erotic films
which starred such icons of French cinema as Jean-Louis Trinignant
(Haneke’s Amour, Bertolucci’s The Conformist),
Marie-France Pisier (Truffaut’s Stolen Kisses and Bed and
Board) and Isabelle Huppert (Claire Denis’ White Material,
Haneke’s Amour).
Impossible to see for decades, these enigmatic, sexually-charged
films have now been collected together for the very first time, and are
made available here in beautifully remastered High Definition
presentations, with extra features including video introductions by
Catherine Robbe-Grillet, filmed interviews with Alain Robbe-Grillet by
Frederic Taddei, and newly-recorded, exclusive feature-length
commentaries by cult cinema authority Tim Lucas.
This limited edition Blu-ray box set includes: The
Immortal One (1964), Trans-Europ Express (1967), The Man Who Lies
(1968), Eden and After (1970), N. Rolls the Dice (1971) and Successive
Slidings Into Pleasure (1974).
