Win Jean-Pierre Melville’s Army of Shadows on Blu-ra
STUDIOCANAL has announced the release of a brand-new 4K restoration of Jean-Pierre Melville’s WW2 set masterpiece, Army of Shadows, that will be available to own on Blu-Ray, DVD and Digital from June 3. The release follows the film’s inclusion in this year’s ‘Cannes Classic’ strand at the Cannes Film Festival.
Having himself participated in the French Resistance, ARMY OF SHADOWS is both Melville’s most personal film and, though initially underappreciated in France, is today widely recognized as being his finest.
Based on a novel by Joseph Kessel and featuring a stella cast that includes Lino Ventura (Les Misérables, Lift to The Scaffold), Paul Meurisse (Les Diaboliques, The Eleven O’clock Woman), Jean-Pierre Cassel (The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie, The Three Musketeers) and Simone Signoret (Room at The Top, Les Diaboliques), ARMY OF SHADOWS is a real-life story channelled through the minimalism of Melville’s gangster films. The result is an unmissable tale of defiance in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.
