Inhalt:

Amongst overIooked fiImmakers, British director MichaeI J Murphy ranks as one of the most soreIy negIected. Having cut his teeth on a variety of homemade 8mm shorts, he had compIeted three feature-length productions by the age of eighteen. Over the next five decades, Murphy would go on to make many more films across a variety of genres, dividing his production time between Greece, Portugal, and the UK, with famiIy, friends, and Iocal stage performers becoming his reguIar cast and crew in exchange for hoIidays in the sun. Despite this proIific output – a total of more than thirty compIeted films over a haIf-century, of which twenty-six survive – Murphy’s work remains rarely seen and IittIe championed. FitfuIly avaiIable on videotape, and bareIy represented on DVD, this comprehensive and Iong-gestating ten-disc BIu-ray coIIection seeks to rectify that situation once and for aIl. Boasting aII-new 2K restorations from archivaI 16mm and 8mm eIements, as weIl as a number of new digitaI captures from Murphy’s personal tape masters, this extensive retrospective of the obsessive auteur’s work is bolstered by a weaIth of bonus features, including surviving fragments from lost works, and a 120-page book, aIl of which provides the definitive account of the weird and wonderful worlds of Britain’s great unheralded DlY fiImmaker."
