Made just one year after his international sensation Viridiana<\/span><\/a>, this is a furthering of Bu\u00f1uel’s wicked takedown of the rituals and dependencies of the frivolous upper classes, full of eerie and hilarious absurdity.<\/p>\n SPECIAL EDITION DOUBLE-DISC SET FEATURES:<\/p>\n The Last Script: Remembering Luis Bu\u00f1uel<\/span>, a 2008 documentary featuring Jean-Claude Carri\u00e8re and Jean Luis Bu\u00f1uel<\/p>\n New interviews with filmmaker Arturo Ripstein and actress Silvia Pinal<\/p>\n Theatrical trailer<\/p>\n New and improved English subtitle translation<\/p>\n PLUS: A booklet featuring a new essay by film scholar Marsha Kinder and a reprinted interview with Bu\u00f1uel<\/ul>\n \n Simon of the Desert<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Promo copy:<\/span><\/p>\n Simon of the Desert<\/span> is Luis Bu\u00f1uel’s wicked and wild take on the life of devoted ascetic Saint Simeon Stylites, who waited atop a pillar surrounded by a barren landscape for six years, six months, and six days, in order to prove his devotion to God. Yet the devil, in the figure of the beautiful Silvia Pinal, huddles below, trying to tempt him down. A skeptic s vision of human conviction, Bu\u00f1uel’s short and sweet satire is one of the master filmmaker’s most renowned works of surrealism.<\/p>\n SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES: A Mexican Bu\u00f1uel<\/span> (1995), 50-minute documentary by Emilio Maill\u00e9<\/p>\n New interview with actress Silvia Pinal<\/p>\n New and improved English subtitle translation<\/p>\n PLUS: A booklet featuring a new essay by critic Michael Wood and a reprinted interview with Bu\u00f1uel<\/p>\n \n Inside Moves<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Promo copy<\/span><\/p>\n The Academy Award\u00ae nominated film (Best Supporting Actress Diane Scarwid, TV’s Pushing Daisies<\/span><\/a>) Inside Moves<\/span> makes its long-awaited DVD debut this February from Lionsgate. Directed by Richard Donner (Superman<\/span><\/a>), the film was based on the Todd Walton novel of the same name. Praised by the New York Times<\/span> as "a well-acted movie…parts of it are so effectively offbeat, that it rises above…just as surely as its characters triumph over their troubles," <\/p>\n Inside Moves<\/span> follows Roary (John Savage, The Deer Hunter), a young man who has been partially crippled after a failed suicide attempt. Depressed, Roary begins spending a lot of time at a neighborhood bar full of interesting misfits. When Jerry the bartender (David Morse, Emmy\u00ae nominee HBO’s John Adams<\/span><\/a>) suddenly finds himself playing basketball for the Golden State Warriors, Roary and the rest of the bar regulars hope his success will provide a lift to their sagging spirits. <\/p>\n The Inside Moves<\/span> DVD contains special features that include audio commentary with Donner and writer Brian Helgeland, a making-of featurette, interviews with Walton, Donner and screenwriter Barry Levinson and a stills gallery of Donner’s original shooting script.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Let\u2019s take a quick look to see what\u2019s arrived in the mail here at the Geek Compound.
