Roger Livesey dynamically embodies outmoded English militarism as the indelible General Clive Candy, who barely survives four decades of tumultuous British history, 1902 to 1942, only to see the world change irrevocably before his eyes. Anton Walbrook and Deborah Kerr provide unforgettable support, he as a German enemy turned lifelong friend of Candy’s and she as young women of three consecutive generations—a socially committed governess, a sweet-souled war nurse, and a modern-thinking army driver—who inspire him. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eColonel Blimp\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is both moving and slyly satirical, an incomparable film about war, love, aging, and obsolescence, shot in gorgeous Technicolor.\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\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSPECIAL EDITION FEATURES\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew digital master from the Film Foundation’s 2012 4K restoration, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack on the Blu-ray edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudio commentary featuring director Michael Powell and filmmaker Martin Scorsese\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew video introduction by Scorsese\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eA Profile of “The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp,”\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ea documentary from 2000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestoration demonstration, hosted by Scorsese\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eOptimism and Sheer Will,\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ea 2012 interview with editor Thelma Schoonmaker Powell, Michael Powell’s widow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGallery featuring rare behind-the-scenes production stills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGallery tracing the history of David Low’s original Colonel Blimp cartoons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnglish subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePLUS: A booklet featuring a new essay by critic Molly Haskell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNew cover by Fred Davis\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Criterion Collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41280948142280,"sku":"CC2238BD","price":49.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/8486\/3688\/products\/lifeanddeath.jpg?v=1642894008","url":"https:\/\/videomatica.com\/es\/products\/aba-blu-life_-010-71551","provider":"Videomatica Ltd (since 1983)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
