River's Edge, The (Limited Edition BLU-RAY)
“Director Allan Dwan fills the sunbaked landscape with an acrid haze of moods and a suffocating tangle of emotions, which he conjures with sharp, stark images of stifled frenzy...in a few slashing brushstrokes, Dwan captures the ecstatic horror of life on the edge.” – Richard Brody, The New Yorker “Yet another example of Dwan’s enterprise under pressure. He gets a scathing performance out of Milland [and] proves characteristically at home with the expanses of CinemaScope.” – Trevor Johnston, Time Out Film Guide Director Allan Dwan – an auteur theory favorite – brings us The River’s Edge (1957), a sensational film noir in DeLuxe color and CinemaScope. Anthony Quinn and Debra Paget star as a young couple struggling with the rough life on a New Mexican ranch; as if they needed more troubles, her former lover, a sleazy bank robber on the run – played by Ray Milland with shocking ferocity – turns up, forcing them to escort him across the border to Mexico with his ill-gotten gains.
