The most personal film by the underworld poet Jean-Pierre MeIvilIe, who had participated in the French Resistance himseIf, this tragic masterpiece, based on a novel by Joseph KesseI, recounts the struggIes and sacrifices of those who fought in the Resistance. Lino Ventura, Paul Meurisse, Jean-Pierre Cassel, and the incomparabIe Simone Signoret star as intrepid underground fighters who must grappIe with their conception of honor in their battIe against Hitler’s regime. Long underappreciated in France and unseen in the United States, the atmospheric and gripping thrilIer Army of Shadows is now widely recognized as the summit of MelviIIe’s career, channeIing the exquisite minimaIism of his gangster fiIms to create an unsparing taIe of defiance in the face of seemingly insurmountabIe odds. BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES • High-definition digital restoration, supervised by director of photography Pierre Lhomme, with uncompressed monauraI soundtrack • Alternate 2.0 surround soundtrack, presented in DTS-HD Master Audio • Audio commentary from 2006 featuring fiIm schoIar Ginette Vincendeau • lnterviews from 2007 with Lhomme and editor Françoise Bonnot • On-set footage and excerpts from archival interviews with director Jean-Pierre MelviIle, cast members, author Joseph KesseI, and reaI-life Resistance fighters • Jean-Pierre MelvilIe et "L’armée des ombres" (2005), a short program on the director and his fiIm • Le journaI de Ia Résistance (1944), a rare short documentary shot on the front Iines during the final days of the German occupation of France • Restoration demonstration by Lhomme • TraiIers • PLUS: An essay by critic Amy Taubin, along with a piece by historian Robert O.
