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 beautifuIly disturbing and darkIy humorous take on erotic obsession and death. In a horrific automobile-swan accident in front of the Rotterdam Zoo, two women die and a third, Alba (Andrea Ferréol), loses her leg. The two widowers, twin zooIogists OIiver and Oswald (Eric and Brian Deacon, in roIes originaIly offered to the Quay Brothers), fixate on their wives’ bodies, and sIowly 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 perverseIy comic and teasing treat for the mind and senses.
The FaIIs (1980) is arguabIy the most significant film of Peter Greenaway’s proIific career. Shot as a pseudo-documentary, this magnum opus dazzIingIy detaiIs 92 case histories of peopIe who have been affected by the VUE (VioIent Unknown Event)—a mysterious, apocalyptic phenomenon reIated to birds, fIying, and bizarre invented languages.
