2-DISC 4K UHD LIMITED STEELBOOK,
UHD & BLU-RAY
Directed by Joel & Ethan Coen.
Starring: John Getz, Frances McDormand, Dan Hedaya & M. Emmet Walsh
The Director’s Cut of BLOOD SIMPLE comes as a 4K UHD Limited Steelbook as well as standalone 4K UHD and Blu-Ray editions. Each version comes complete with a poster.
The releases feature three exclusive new featurettes: ‘The Design of Blood Simple’ with Jane Musky, ‘On the Set of Blood Simple’ with Deborah Reinisch and ‘The Sound of Blood Simple’ with Carter Burwell. Also included are in-depth archive interviews with the filmmakers and cast, a fake trailer and a new Coen brothers’ documentary.
A ruthless bar owner (Dan Hedaya The Usual Suspects) hires a private detective (M. Emmet Walsh Blade Runner) to get rid of his wife (Frances McDormand Fargo) and her lover (John Getz The Fly), but the plan goes fatally wrong. Joel & Ethan Coen’s brilliant directorial debut from 1984 already showcases the DNA of the Coen universe: a ruthless neo-noir brimming with irony, suspense and visual mastery.
