Belle De Jour (Frn/Eng Sbt) (N/A Qc) (715515088916)

The porcelain perfection of Catherine Deneuve (Repulsion) hides a cracked interior in the actress's most iconic role: Sverine, a chilly Paris housewife by night, a bordello prostitute by day. This surreal and erotic late-sixties daydream from provocateur for the ages Luis Buuel (Viridiana) is an examination of desire and fetishistic pleasure (its characters and its viewers), as well as a gently absurdist take on contemporary social mores and class divisions. Fantasy and reality commingle in this burst of cinematic transgression, which was one of Buuel's biggest hits. New high-definition digital restoration, Audio commentary featuring Michael Wood, author of the BFI Film Classics book Belle de jour, New video piece featuring writer and sexual-politics activist Susie Bright and film scholar Linda Williams, New interview with screenwriter Jean-Claude Carrire, Excerpt from the French television program Cinma, featuring interviews with Carrire and actress Catherine Deneuve, Original and American release trailers, New and improved English subtitle translation, PLUS: A booklet featuring an essay by critic Melissa Anderson and a 1970s interview with director Luis Buuel
