DVD & Blu-Ray: BLUE IS THE WARMEST COLOR (Criterion Collection)

Product Description: BLUE IS THE WARMEST COLOR centers on a 15-year-old girl named Adèle (Adèle Exarchopoulos) who is climbing to adulthood and dreams of experiencing her first love. A handsome male classmate falls for her hard, but an unsettling erotic reverie upsets the romance before it begins. Adèle imagines that the mysterious, blue-haired girl she encountered in the street slips into her bed and possesses her with an overwhelming pleasure. That blue-haired girl is a confident older art student named Emma (Léa Seydoux), who will soon enter Adèle's life for real, making way for an intense and complicated love story that spans a decade and is touchingly universal in its depiction.

Red Band Trailer for BLUE IS THE WARMEST COLOR

A new "For Your Consideration" red band trailer (18+) has been released for last year's Palme D'Or winner "Blue is the Warmest Color". The film is enjoying a successful run at the awards, but will not participate at the Academy Awards because it missed the deadline since the Oscars have a rule which states that a film must have opened in its home country by the end of September to be put forward for nomination. "Blue is the Warmest Color" stars Adèle Exarchopoulos and Léa Seydoux.
