Punishment Park [masters Of Cinema] (dual Format Blu-ray + Dvd Edition)
Both controversial and relentless in its depiction of suppression and brutality Punishment Park was heavily attacked by the mainstream press and permitted only the barest of releases in 1971. However like Haskell Wexler’s Medium Cool (1969) and Robert Kramer’s Ice (1969) Peter Watkins’ film has established itself as one of the key yet rarely seen radical films of the late 1960s/early 1970s. Giving voice to the disaffected youth of America that had lived through the campus riots at Berkeley the trial of the Chicago Seven and who were witnessing the escalation of the Vietnam War Punishment Park was named by Rolling Stone as one of their top ten films of 1971 and has earned many admirers in the four decades since its release.Set in a detention camp in an America of the near-future Punishment Park’s pseudo-documentary style (continuing Watkins’ subversive innovations with Culloden and The War Game) places a British film crew amongst a group of young students and minor dissidents who have opted to spend three days in ‘Bear Mountain Punishment Park’. The detainees rather than accept lengthy jail sentences for their ‘crimes’ gamble their freedom on an attempt to reach an American flag — on foot and without water — through the searing heat of the desert. The pursuit of Group 637 — a lethal one-sided game of cat-and-mouse with a squad of heavily armed police and National Guardsmen — is contrasted with the corrupt trial of Group 638 by a quasi-judicial tribunal.Unlike Easy Rider’s mythologising of American counter-culture Punishment Park’s uncompromising stance and its uneasy parallels with Guantanamo Bay retain a powerful and prescient message in the post-9/11 present.Special Features: Newly restored high-definition transfer (shot on 16mm Punishment Park has been remastered from a new 35mm print struck from the restored 35mm blow-up negative held in Paris) 30-minute video introduction by Peter Watkins Full-length audio commentary by Dr. Joseph A. Gomez (author of the 1979 book Peter Watkins) Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing 40-page booklet with two essays and reprints

Rocky is the simple story of a man whom fate chooses for a shot at glory in what has otherwise been an ordinary life. And while this subject matter is nothing new it was unusual for Hollywood to release an old-fashioned 'feel-good' movie in the seventies a decade whose films were mostly unconventional in attitude and anti-establishment in tone.Rocky is of course a fairy tale but by grounding its characters in an everyday reality the filmmakers were able to make them seem real and alive. And making the major contribution to that sense of reality was Sylvester Stallone an out-of-work actor/writer whose faith in himself took him from utter obscurity to world-wide fame and fortune virtually overnight….. Rocky II It's the rematch of the century as Rocky Balboa takes on Apollo Creed in this powerful follow-up to one of the most acclaimed movies in film history.

For what may be the most exciting and fast-paced film in the series Sylvester Stallone writes directs and stars with explosive passion and intensity. As Rocky Balboa (Stallone) fights his way into the hearts of millions life couldn't be better. He scores ten consecutive wins lands lucrative endorsement contracts and becomes famous throughout the world. But when Clubber Lang KOs Rocky in a humiliating defeat it becomes apparent that the Italian Stallion has lost his edge.

This time Rocky's training regimen takes him to icy Siberia where he prepares for a globally televised match in the heart of Moscow. But nothing can truly prepare him for what he's about to face - a powerfully charged fight to the finish in which he must defend not only himself but also the honor of his country!
