Cul-De-Sac (Criterion) (Criterion Collection Region 1) - Polanski, RomanReleasedatum: 16 augustus 2011
Roman Polanski orchestrates a mental ménage à trois in this slyly absurd tale of paranoia from the director’s golden 1960s period. Donald Pleasence and Françoise Dorléac star as a withdrawn couple whose isolated house is invaded by a rude, burly American gangster on the run, played by Lionel Stander. The three engage in role-playing games of sexual and emotional humiliation. Cul-de-sac is an evocative, claustrophobic, and morbidly funny tale of the modern world in chaos.
New, restored high-definition digital transfer, approved by director Roman Polanski (with uncompressed monaural soundtrack on the Blu-ray edition)
