On 27 January, Indicator begins the new year with two offbeat classics of American 60s and 70s cinema and a pair of uncompromising British dramas from the 80s and 90s.
Curtis Harrington’s acclaimed Night Tide (1961), starring Dennis Hopper in his first lead role, receives its UK Blu-ray premiere. Presented by Nicolas Winding Refn in a new 4K restoration, this individually numbered, limited-edition set contains an exclusive bonus Blu-ray disc containing Harrington’s short films, plus an 80-page book and a set of facsimile lobby cards.
Also receiving its UK Blu-ray premiere is William Richert’s brilliantly off-kilter conspiracy thriller Winter Kills (1979). Featuring an all-star cast that includes Jeff Bridges, John Huston, Toshirō Mifune, Eli Wallach, Elizabeth Taylor, Tomas Milian and many other famous faces, this dark vision of political corruption is presented in two cuts from a new 4K restoration.
Paul Greengrass’ unflinching Resurrected (1989) finally gets its UK Blu-ray premiere release. Based on real-life events which occurred during and after the Falklands conflict, this intense drama features a star-making turn from David Thewlis, as well as affecting performances from British screen icons Tom Bell and Rita Tushingham.
Last but far from least, Indicator proudly present Peter Mullan’s jet-black comedy of familial grief, Orphans (1998). This modern classic of Scottish cinema features powerful performances from Douglas Henshall and Gary Lewis, and is presented alongside a selection of Mullan’s gritty short films and a new documentary that examines the film and its legacy.
Mastered from the finest available materials, each of these collectable limited editions contains an extensive selection of new and archival extra features, and English subtitles for the deaf and hard-of-hearing.
