Staged with ebullience, the original blues- and gospel-infused songs by Van Peebles burst forth in a life-affirming celebration of Black joy, tenderness, resilience, and strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"header_lvl2 hideSmall\"\u003eSPECIAL FEATURES\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew 4K digital restorations of all four films, approved by filmmaker Mario Van Peebles, with uncompressed monaural soundtracks for\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Story of a Three Day Pass, Watermelon Man,\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eand\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eSweet Sweetback’s Baadasssss Song\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eand 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack for\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eDon’t Play Us Cheap\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eBaadasssss!,\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ea 2003 fictional feature film based on director Melvin Van Peebles’s diaries from the making of\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eSweet Sweetback’s Baadasssss Song,\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003edirected by and starring his son Mario Van Peebles, with commentary by father and son\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew conversations between Mario Van Peebles and film critic Elvis Mitchell; producer Warrington Hudlin and critic and filmmaker Nelson George; and scholars Amy Abugo Ongiri, Gerald R.

Shocked to discover that the real world doesn’t respond to the click of a remote, Chance stumbles into celebrity after being taken under the wing of a tycoon (Melvyn Douglas, in an Oscar-winning performance), who mistakes his protégé’s horticultural mumblings for sagacious pronouncements on life and politics, and whose wife (Shirley MacLaine) targets Chance as the object of her desire. Adapted from a novel by Jerzy Kosinski, this satire, both deeply melancholy and hilarious, is the culmination of Hal Ashby’s remarkable string of films in the 1970s, and a carefully modulated examination of the ideals, anxieties, and media-fueled delusions that shaped American culture during that decade.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"header_lvl2 hideSmall\"\u003eSPECIAL FEATURES\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-features-list\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew, restored 4K digital transfer, supervised by cinematographer Caleb Deschanel, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack on the Blu-ray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew documentary on the making of the film, featuring interviews with members of the production team\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcerpts from a 1980 American Film Institute seminar with director Hal Ashby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthor Jerzy Kosinski in a 1979 appearance on\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Dick Cavett Show\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAppearances from 1980 by actor Peter Sellers on NBC’s\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eToday\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eand on\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Don Lane Show\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePromo reel featuring Sellers and Ashby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrailer and TV spots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeleted scene, outtakes, and alternate ending\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnglish subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePLUS: An essay by critic Mark Harris\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eNew cover based on an original theatrical poster\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unobstructed View","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41178089685192,"sku":"CC2745DDVD","price":37.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/8486\/3688\/products\/beingtheredvd.jpg?v=1635381044"},{"product_id":"la-strada-blu-ray","title":"La Strada (BLU-RAY)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWith this breakthrough film, Federico Fellini launched both himself and his wife and collaborator Giulietta Masina to international stardom, breaking with the neorealism of his early career in favor of a personal, poetic vision of life as a bittersweet carnival.

He found his sophisticated and slyly subversive voice with these four romances, produced during the dark days of the German occupation.

This debut has spawned countless imitations, but none have equaled its strange sublimity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"header_lvl2 hideSmall\"\u003eDIRECTOR-APPROVED SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-features-list\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestored 4K digital transfer, approved by director Terrence Malick, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack on the Blu-ray edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eMaking “Badlands,”\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ea 2012 documentary featuring actors Martin Sheen and Sissy Spacek and art director Jack Fisk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterviews from 2012 with associate editor Billy Weber and executive producer Edward Pressman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e“Charles Starkweather,” a 1993 episode of the television program\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eAmerican Justice,\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eabout the real-life story on which the film was loosely based\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrailer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnglish subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePLUS: An essay by filmmaker Michael Almereyda\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCover based on a painting commissioned by Malick\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Criterion Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41280879067336,"sku":"CC2244BD","price":50.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/8486\/3688\/products\/badlands.jpg?v=1648663668"},{"product_id":"aba-blu-baker003-cc304","title":"Baker's Wife, The (BLU-RAY)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe warmth and wit of celebrated playwright turned cinema auteur Marcel Pagnol shine in this enchanting slice-of-life comedy. Returning to the Provençal countryside he knew intimately, Pagnol draws a vivid portrait of a close-knit village where the marital woes of a sweetly deluded baker (the inimitable Raimu, praised by no less than Orson Welles as “the greatest actor who ever lived”) snowball into a scandal that engulfs the town. Marrying the director’s abiding concern for the experiences of ordinary people with an understated but superbly judged visual style, The Baker’s Wife is at once wonderfully droll and piercingly perceptive in its depiction of the complexities of human relationships.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECIAL FEATURES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew 4K digital restoration, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack on the Blu-ray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew selected-scene audio commentary featuring Marcel Pagnol scholar Brett Bowles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction by Pagnol from 1967\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcerpt from a 1966 interview with Pagnol for the French television series Cinéastes de notre temps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShort French news program from 1976 revisiting the village of Le Castellet, where the film was shot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew English subtitle translation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePLUS: An essay by film scholar Ginette Vincendeau\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew cover by Manuel Fior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Unobstructed View","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41280879427784,"sku":"CC3047BD","price":49.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/8486\/3688\/products\/dm0IkYZsXXqgFyLW4WLEmrePDHITZS_large_57637026-604d-4b74-952c-8e46076aa2aa.jpg?v=1651348540"},{"product_id":"aba-blu-band_o008-71551","title":"Band Of Outsiders (BLU-RAY)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFour years after \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eBreathless,\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Jean-Luc Godard reimagined the gangster film even more radically with \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eBand of Outsiders\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e (\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eBande à part\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e).
