Jan Svankmajer Collection 7-DVD Box kaikki pitkät elokuvat

Tsekkiläinen, Svankmajerin oman firman julkaisema muoveissa oleva boksi sisältää kaikki 7 tämän pitkää elokuvaa, myös uusimman ja viimeiseksi ilmoitetun Hmyz-leffan.

HUOM! Koska tämä on vuosia kestävä listaus eikä boksi ole edes täällä Tsekissä yleisessä myynnissä, laita KYSYMYS ENNEN OSTOA tuonne alle ja vastaan yleensä saman tien, onko setti juuri silloin saatavilla. Näin vältetään mahdolliset pettymykset.

Huom 2. DVD:t on saatavilla (yleensä) myös erikseen hintaan 30 euroa/kpl (plus postit 4 euroa). Jos haluat vain yhden leffan, laita siitä hintaehdotus ja leffan nimi sen yhteyteen. Hyväksyn hintaehdotuksen, jos DVD on saatavilla sillä hetkellä erikseen. Osta nyt -hinta sisältää koko boksin, joten älä osta koko boksia, jos haluat vain yhden dvd:n. Setti on mahdollista hankkia myös blu-ray-boksina, jolle tulee hintaa hulppeat 400 euroa.

Includes all 7 feature films:

Neco z Alenky 1988 (Alice - Czech audio, subtitles in English and French)

A memorably bizarre screen version of Lewis Carroll's novel 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland', mixing one live actor (Alice) with a large variety of stop-motion animated creatures, ranging from the complex (the White Rabbit) to the incredibly simple (the Caterpillar, consisting of a sock, a couple of glass eyes and a pair of false teeth). The original story is followed reasonably faithfully, though those familiar with this director's other films won't be the least bit surprised by the numerous digressions into Svankmajer territory, living slabs of meat and all. As the opening narration says, it's a film made for children... perhaps?

Lekce Faust 1994 (Faust - Czech audio and dubbing & subtitles in English)

A very free adaptation of Marlowe's 'Doctor Faustus', Goethe's 'Faust' and various other treatments of the old legend of the man who sold his soul to the devil. Svankmajer's Faust is a nondescript man who, after being lured by a strange map into a sinister puppet theatre, finds himself immersed in an indescribably weird version of the play, blending live actors, clay model animation and giant puppets.

Spiklenci slasti 1996 (Conspirators of Pleasure - original jibberish audio, no subtitles needed)

Six people unknowingly form a cycle of masturbation as they each cause others to privately indulge in their fetishes.

Otesanek 2000 (Little Otik - Czech audio, subtitles in English, French, Spanish, Italian, German)

When a childless couple learn that they cannot have children, it causes great distress. To ease his wife's pain, the man finds a stump in the backyard and chops it and varnishes it into the shape of a child. However the woman takes the root as her baby and starts to pretend that it is real. When the root takes life they seem to have gained a child; but its appetite is much greater than that of a normal child.

Šílení 2005 (Lunacy - Czech audio, subtitles in English, French, Spanish, German)

A horror movie testing two approaches to running an insane asylum - absolute freedom versus control and punishment - within the context of a world that combines the worst of both. Jean Berlot, a young man subject to a nightmare of being forced into a straitjacket by two orderlies, is befriended by a marquis. At the marquis's estate, Jean witnesses a black Mass, buries someone alive, and is invited to try preventive therapy. He's willing to enter a sanatorium because he believes he can rescue a young woman from there who has told him that the real director and staff of the clinic are locked in the basement. Jean conspires with her to set them free: the horrors have only begun.

Prezit svuj zivot 2010 (Surviving Life, Czech audio, subtitles in English, German, French, Italian, Spanish)

The film uses a mix of cut-out animation from photographs and live-action segments, and tells the story of a married man who lives a double life in his dreams, where he is married to another woman.

Hmyz 2017 (Insects - Czech audio, subtitles in English, German, French, Spanish)

Amateur actors rehearsing "Pictures from the Insects' Life". The actors find themselves living out their characters' roles and hallucinating insects. "Insects", is intercut with the creative process of the film itself and interviews with the actors about their dreams.
