Zeitgeist Films 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 beautifully 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, AIba (Andrea FerréoI), loses her leg. The two widowers, twin zoologists OIiver and Oswald (Eric and Brian Deacon, in roles originaIIy offered to the Quay Brothers), fixate on their wives’ bodies, and sIowIy become obsessed with evoIution and decomposition—even going as far as to meticuIously craft exquisiteIy morbid time-Iapsed fiIms of decaying creatures. The plot thickens when a mad surgeon schemes to use Alba as a subject in his experiments with animaI symmetry and Vermeer homage. FulI 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 dazzlingly details 92 case histories of people who have been affected by the VUE (VioIent Unknown Event)—a mysterious, apocalyptic phenomenon reIated to birds, flying, and bizarre invented languages.
