CUTTERS WAY (LIMITED EDITION)

The laid-back Californian gigolo Richard Bone (Jeff Bridges) finds himself suspected of murder when he happens to see the wrong thing at the wrong time: the body of a young girl being dumped into a garbage can. Bone's friend, the capricious and paranoid Vietnam veteran Cutter, (John Heard), begins to suspect a conspiracy behind the killing, with local oil tycoon J.J. Cord (Stephen Elliott) at its centre. He persuades a reluctant Bone to try and take Cord down, leading to a sinister escalation of events that will change their lives forever. Featuring stunning performances from its leads, and pitch-perfect direction from Ivan Passer, the cynical and devastating Cutter's Way is one of the defining films of the post-Vietnam, post-Watergate era - a defiant howl of frustration at the corruption of the American dream, and one of the most essential California noirs ever made. 4K UHD & BLU-RAY DUAL FORMAT SPECIAL FEATURES New 4K restoration from the original camera negative 4K UHD and Blu-ray presentation of the feature; world premiere on 4K UHD Option to watch film with original intertitles Uncompressed mono audio Piety, Patriotism and Violence: The Legacy of Cutter and Bone: new featurette on the legacy of Cutter's Way with contributions from writers Megan Abbott, Jordan Harper and George Pelecanos Archival audio commentary by novelist Matthew Specktor Archival audio commentary by film historians Julie Kirgo and Nick Redman Archival audio commentary by assistant director Larry Franco and unit production manager Barrie Osborne Archival video interview with star Lisa Eichhorn Archival video interview with UA Classics exec Ira Deutchman Archival video interview with director Ivan Passer Archival video interview with writer Jeffrey Alan Fiskin Archival video interview with producer Paul Gurian Archival video featurette on composer Jack Nitzsche Archival audio introduction by star Jeff Bridges Archival video introduction by director Bertrand Tavernier Theatrical trailers Isolated music track Optional English SDH subtitle track Reversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Time Tomorrow Limited edition 80 page bound book featuring new writing from Christina Newland, Nick Pinkerton, and Travis Woods, plus an archival interview with Ivan Passer Limited edition of 5000 copies, presented in rigid box and full-height Scanavo packaging with removable OBI strip leaving packaging free of certificates and markings
