• L'Eclisse | Blu Ray | (28/09/2015) from £11.99   |  Saving you £11.00 (91.74%)   |  RRP £22.99

  L’Eclisse was the final film in Antonioni’s informal trilogy on contemporary malaise (following L’Avventura and La Notte), a series of films that redefined the concept of narrative cinema. Filmed in sumptuous black and white, and full of scenes of lush, strange beauty, it tells the story of Vittoria (the beautiful Monica Vitti - Red Desert - Antonioni’s partner at the time), a young woman who leaves her older lover (Francisco Rabal – Viridiana), then drifts into a relationship with a confident, ambitious young stockbroker (Alain Delon – Le Cercle Rouge). But this base narrative is the starting point for much, much more, including an analysis of the city as a place of estrangement and alienation and an implicit critique of colonialism. Using the architecture of Rome - old and new - as a backdrop for this doomed affair, Antonioni achieves the apotheosis of his style in this return to the theme that preoccupied him the most: the difficulty of forming true connections amidst the meaninglessness of the modern world. The final shot remains one of the greatest endings in cinema.

• Listen up Philip (2013) | Blu Ray | (27/07/2015) from £21.58   |  Saving you £-5.59 (N/A%)   |  RRP £15.99

  Combining intellectual ambition with a singular comic sensibility the third feature film by writer-director Alex Ross Perry marked a defining moment for the American independent cinema of the 2010s. As with his previous features Impolex and The Color Wheel the blackly hilarious Listen Up Philip is distinguished as much by its literary pedigree as by its fine attunement to atmosphere sense of place and enabled by the camerawork of Sean Price Williams the texture of the image. Jason Schwartzman in one of his most accomplished roles since such Wes Anderson collaborations as Rushmore and The Darjeeling Limited  achieves the height of comic verbal violence as the novelist Philip Lewis Friedman who having received his first taste of literary acclaim embarks upon the publicity campaign for his soon-to-be-published second novel Obidant. The attention of his literary hero Ike Zimmerman (played by the first-rate Jonathan Pryce) a major novelist some decades his elder leads to an open invitation to abscond from Brooklyn and work from Zimmerman’s small-town home upstate. And so the stage is set for all-out warfare between Philip’s seemingly irrepressible ego and the emotionality of his talented photographer girlfriend Ashley who in a brilliant performance by Mad Men’s Elisabeth Moss exhibits the kind of dynamism that could dull Philip's edge for good. Put into relief by a cast including Krysten Ritter Joséphine de La Baume Keith Poulson Kate Lyn Sheil and Dree Hemingway Schwartzman-as-Friedman embodies what must be one of the most charmingly loathsome or most diabolically winning personalities in recent films. The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present Listen Up Philip the picture Manohla Dargis of The New York Times called "a masterwork about what it is to live for love and not just the self ” in its UK debut on Blu-ray and DVD.
