Paul Schrader's visually stunning, collagelike portrait of the acclaimed Japanese author and playwright Yukio Mishima (played by Ken Ogata) investigates the inner turmoil and contradictions of a man who attempted the impossible task of finding harmony among self, art, and society. Taking place on the last day of Mishima's life, when he famously committed public seppuku, the film is punctuated by extended flashbacks to the writer's past as well as gloriously stylized evocations of his fictional works. With its rich cinematography by John Bailey, exquisite sets and costumes by Eiko Ishioka, and unforgettable, highly influential score by Philip Glass, Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters is a tribute to its subject and a bold, investigative work of art in its own right.United States, Japan1985121 minutesBlack and White/Colour1.85:1JapaneseSpine #432DIRECTOR-APPROVED 4K UHD + BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES4K digital restoration of the director's cut, supervised and approved by director Paul Schrader and cinematographer John Bailey, with 2.0 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrackOne 4K UHD disc of the film and one Blu-ray with the film and special featuresTwo alternate English narrations, including one by actor Roy ScheiderAudio commentary featuring Schrader and producer Alan PoulProgram on the making of the film featuring Bailey, producers Tom Luddy and Mata Yamamoto, composer Philip Glass, and production designer Eiko IshiokaProgram on Yukio Mishima featuring his biographer John Nathan and friend Donald RichieAudio interview with co-screenwriter Chieko SchraderInterview excerpt from 1966 featuring Mishima talking about writingThe Strange Case of Yukio Mishima, a 1985 documentary about the authorTrailerPLUS: An essay by critic Kevin Jackson, a piece on the film's censorship in Japan, and photographs of Ishioka's setsCover by Neil Kellerhouse
