This adaptation of Anton Chekhov's THREE SISTERS was part of the American Film Theater series, conceived in the 1970s by producer Ely Landau, and meant to be shown theatrically just like a play, with tickets sold in advance. The play focuses on a trio of sisters who live far away from the big city they yearn for, Moscow. Olga, Masha, and Irina all seek relief from their dreary lives and dream of somehow returning to the city they love just as Russia is about to endure a social and political upheaval that will change it forever. Directed by Laurence Olivier, THREE SISTERS is a brooding and intense version of Chekhov's classic.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseAnamorphic Widescreen - 1.85Additional Release Material: Interview - 1.

Haitian-born director Raoul Peck exorcises the demons of his adopted Congolese homeland in his erudite retelling of the tragically ended life of Patrice Lumumba, the Congo's first and last popularly elected prime minister. Spinning off from his 1992 documentary LUMUMBA: DEATH OF A PROPHET, Peck, with the benefit of recently uncovered information, unfurls the frenetic life of Lumumba, jumping backwards through his erratic and surprising rise to power from his brutal murder. Eriq Ebouaney portrays Lumumba's unique mix of antagonistic energy and chaotic charisma with breathtaking momentum; from his days as a beer salesman to his imprisonment for insurrection, to his attendance of the meetings instrumental in helping the Congo gain independence. The doomed leader's trajectory takes on Shakespearean proportions of betrayal and epic tragedy when his friend and companion Joseph Mobutu (played icily by Claire Denis regular Alex Descas) capitulates to the powerful forces of greed and international political maneuvering.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseSingle Side - Single LayerFull Frame - 1.33Additional Release Material: Documentaries - 1.
