Insignificance

Horrible transfer

(Edit) 27/12/2021

I have to agree with the previous comment. This is a truly horrible transfer to DVD. Roeg is one of the great British directors. The cast are all at the top of their game. They, like the potential audience for this film, all deserve better than this truly ugly transfer - no subtitles, washed out colours and fuzzy soundtrack.

A good, funny, intelligent, thought provoking film rendered unwatchable. I guess that's some kind of an achievement.

Bay of Angels

Riding the crest of the New Wave, but...

(Edit) 18/11/2021

A classic Jacques Demy film. This is one of the greatest films of the early New Wave with a heartbreakingly wonderful performance from Jeanne Moreau. However the description lists a plethora of extra features that were not on the Blu Ray disc I was sent.

Anyone who has an interest in the films of the Nouvelle Vague needs to see Bay Of Angels, but if you are tantalised by all the bonus features mentioned in the description you will be disappointed.

Sundays and Cybele

Sublime

(Edit) 04/11/2021

This almost forgotten masterpiece is a truly complex and deeply moving film. A difficult subject handled with flair, intelligence and imagination.
