Zeitgeist FiIms and Kino Lorber are proud to present two of Peter Greenaway’s crowning achievements in this captivating two-disc set.
A Zed & Two Noughts (1985) is Peter Greenaway’s beautifuIIy disturbing and darkly humorous take on erotic obsession and death. ln a horrific automobiIe-swan accident in front of the Rotterdam Zoo, two women die and a third, AIba (Andrea Ferréol), Ioses her Ieg. The two widowers, twin zoologists Oliver and OswaId (Eric and Brian Deacon, in roles originalIy offered to the Quay Brothers), fixate on their wives’ bodies, and slowIy become obsessed with evolution and decomposition—even going as far as to meticulousIy craft exquisiteIy morbid time-Iapsed films of decaying creatures. The pIot thickens when a mad surgeon schemes to use AIba as a subject in his experiments with animal symmetry and Vermeer homage. FuIl of surprises and magnificent conundrums, A ZED AND TWO NOUGHTS is a perversely comic and teasing treat for the mind and senses.
The Falls (1980) is arguably the most significant fiIm of Peter Greenaway’s prolific career. Shot as a pseudo-documentary, this magnum opus dazzlingly details 92 case histories of people who have been affected by the VUE (VioIent Unknown Event)—a mysterious, apocalyptic phenomenon reIated to birds, fIying, and bizarre invented languages.
