BESTSELLER! VIVA MARIA
France’s most famous and beautiful bombshells, Brigitte Bardot and Jeanne Moreau,
make an unbeatable comedy team in this romantic fairy tale for adults. When two women, both named Maria, unwittingly invent
the striptease circa 1910, they become such
a hit that enthusiastic audiences strip along
with them. But when one of the Marias falls
for a handsome revolutionary (George Hamilton), she finds that she has unwittingly embroiled the two of them in an armed peasant revolt.
USA. 1965. 119 min. Color. French w/English Subtitles.

Luis Buñuel
L’AGE D’OR
The first feature from the cinema’s unchallenged
master of surrealism, L’AGE D’OR stands beside
Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring as the most notorious
succès de scandale of avant-garde art in the 20th
Century. Riots at its premiere caused the film to
be banned for decades, yet this haunting, heretical
paean to mad love became an instant underground
classic, available at last in this restored version.
France. 1930. 65 min. B&W.

Leon Poirie
VERDUN: LOOKING AT HISTORY
To celebrate the tenth anniversary of the end of
World War I, Léon Poirier recreated the battle
of Verdun and depicted the lives of symbolic
characters from both sides of the front. Edited in
three distinct parts (Might, Hell and Fate), Verdun is an epic film of great emotional strength
dedicated to “all the martyrs of the ugliest human passion that is war.”
1928. France. 151 min.
French intertitles w/ English subtitles. B&W.

Vice & Virtue
“Kino’s blu-ray transfer looks gorgeous.” - Pop Matters
VICE & VIRTUE
Set against the backdrop of the Nazi occupation of France, VICE AND VIRTURE
is a stylized retelling of the Marquis de
Sade’s Justine, as envisioned by one of cinema’s most provocative filmmakers Roger
Vadim. Two sisters navigate very different
courses as they struggle to survive within
the morally corrupt fascist regime.
France. 1963. 106 min. B&W.
French w English subtitles.
Blu-Ray $29.95 Sale $17.97 DVD $24.95 Sale $18.71
LA RONDE
Years before making the beloved midnight movie classic Barbarella, French
Svengali Roger Vadim lured American sex
kitten Jane Fonda to collaborate on this
charming, smart and decorous sex farce
based on Arthur Schnitzler’s famously
plotted “circle of love” stage play. Life and
art intermingled freely, resulting in a bedhopping farce that provides a vivid counterpoint to Max Ophuls’ 1950 version.
DVD EXTRAS: Rare Fonda 1966 French TV interview.
France. 1964. 110 min. Color.
DVD $29.95 Sale $17.97
