Description: TWISTING THE KNIFE: FOUR FILMS BY CLAUDE CHABROL Blu-ray LIMITED EDITIONArrow Video OOP OUT OF PRINTFREE SHIPPING IN A BOX Product DescriptionFor five decades Claude Chabrol navigated the unpredictable waters of Cinema, leaving in his wake fifty-five feature films that remain among the most quietly devastating genre movies ever made.The Swindle sees Chabrol at perhaps his most playful as a pair of scam artists, Isabelle Huppert and Michel Serrault, get in over their heads. But who is scamming who and who do you trust in a life built on so many lies? The murder of a 10-year-old girl sparks rumors and gossip in The Color of Lies, as suspicion falls on René (Jacques Gamblin) the dour once famous painter, now art teacher, who was the last person to see her alive. Enigmatic, perverse, seductive, Isabelle Huppert encapsulates everything that makes Nightcap a film John Waters calls “Cinematic Perfection” in this tale of suppressed family secrets. Finally, in The Flower of Evil, incest, old money and intergenerational guilt come under the scalpel as an outwardly perfect bourgeois family begins to unravel when the wife involves herself in politics.Though influenced by Fritz Lang, Alfred Hitchcock and Jean Renoir, Chabrol’s voice was entirely and assuredly his own, influencing in turn filmmakers like Bong Joon-ho, James Gray and Dominik Moll. His amused, unblinkered view of life and refusal to judge his characters makes his films timelessly relevant and accessible to all. Arrow Video is proud to present this second collection of films by Claude Chabrol with a wealth of new and archival extras.LIMITED EDITION CONTENTSHigh definition Blu-ray presentations of all four filmsNew 4K restorations of The Swindle, Nightcap and The Flower of EvilOriginal lossless PCM French stereo audio on all films plus DTS-HD 5.1 on Nightcap and The Flower of EvilOptional English subtitles80-page collector's booklet of new writing by Sean Hogan, Brad Stevens, Catherine Dousteyssier-Khoze, Alexandra Heller-Nicholas, and Pamela HutchinsonLimited edition packaging featuring newly commissioned artwork by Tony Stella DISC ONE - THE SWINDLENew commentary by critic Barry Forshaw and author Sean HoganNew visual essay by scholar Catherine Dousteyssier-KhozeNew interview with Cécile Maistre-ChabrolBehind the scenesInterview with Isabelle HuppertIntroduction by film scholar Joël MagnySelect scene commentaries by Claude ChabrolTrailerImage gallery DISC TWO - THE COLOR OF LIESNew commentary by critic Barry Forshaw and author Sean HoganNew visual essay by film critic Scout TafoyaNew visual essay by film critic David KalatBehind the scenesIntroduction by film scholar Joël MagnySelect scene commentaries by Claude ChabrolTrailerImage gallery DISC THREE - NIGHTCAPNew commentary by film critic Justine SmithNew visual essay by film critic Scout TafoyaInterview with Isabelle HuppertInterview with Jacques DutroncBehind the scenesScreen test for Anna MouglalisIntroduction by film scholar Joël MagnySelect scene commentaries by Claude ChabrolTrailerImage gallery DISC FOUR - THE FLOWER OF EVILNew commentary by film critic Farran Smith NehmeNew visual essay by Agnes PoirierBehind the scenesInterview with co-writer Catherine EliacheffIntroduction by film scholar Joël MagnySelect scene commentaries by Claude ChabrolTrailerImage galleryTopReviewsProduct detailsPackage Dimensions ‏ : ‎ 7.01 x 5.55 x 1.69 inches; 5.92 ouncesDirector ‏ : ‎ Claude ChabrolMedia Format ‏ : ‎ NTSC, Anamorphic, WidescreenRun time ‏ : ‎ 6 hours and 59 minutesRelease date ‏ : ‎ April 26, 2022Actors ‏ : ‎ Nathalie Baye, Benoît Magimel, Henri Attal, Suzanne Flon, Isabelle HuppertStudio ‏ : ‎ Arrow VideoASIN ‏ : ‎ B09RN2CJ58Country of Origin ‏ : ‎ USANumber of discs ‏ : ‎ 4
