New on Blu-ray: THE DOUBLE / LA CONTROFIGURA (1971) - Limited Edition

The Double 1971 New On Bluray Limited Edition

Product Description: Giovanni (Jean Sorel, Rosa la rose, fille publique) is shot in an underground parking garage by a mysterious bearded man. As his life flashes before his eyes, through flashbacks we learn about his life and what led to this moment. His flirtatious wife, Lucia (Ewa Aulin, Death Smiles on a Murderer) and the fissures her behaviour creates, complications with the family business, Lucia's relationship with a travelling hippie and her beautiful mother-in-law (Lucia Bosé, Fellini Satyricon). With its delirious editing, continually returning us to the site of his murder, Giovanni's life turns in on itself as the film explores masculinity, eroticism, and the uncanny. One of the undiscovered greats of the genre, Romolo Guerrieri's (The Sweet Body of Deborah) The Double is a sexy, metaphysical giallo newly restored and officially released for the first time since VHS.
