Powerhouse Films Track 29 (Limited Edition)
Description
Zavvi - The Home of Pop CultureThe explosive combination of director Nicolas Roeg (Bad Timing, Don't Look Now, The Man Who Fell to Earth) and writer Dennis Potter (Pennies from Heaven, The Singing Detective) created one of British cinema's most unique and disquieting works - the hugely underrated Track 29. Freely adapted from Potter's BBC TV play Schmoedipus, this unsettling film stars Theresa Russell (Bad Timing, Black Widow) as an unhappy, possibly unstable, housewife who welcomes a young man (Gary Oldman - Prick Up Your Ears, Darkest Hour) into her home when he claims to be her long-lost son... Ambitious, ambiguous and surreal, Track 29 is a kinky psychological send-up of American mores - a view from the dis-united states of consciousness. The glorious supporting cast includes Christopher Lloyd (Back to the Future), Sandra Bernhard (The King of Comedy) and Colleen Camp (The Swinging Cheerleaders).Extras:High Definition remasterOriginal stereo audioThe BFI Interview with Nicolas Roeg (1994): archival audio recording of the celebrated filmmaker in conversation at London's National Film TheatreAudio commentary with filmmaker and historian Jim HemphillInterview with actor Colleen Camp (2019)Interview with editor Tony Lawson (2019): Roeg's long-time collaborator talks about Track 29 and his work with the late, great filmmakerOriginal theatrical trailerImage gallery: on-set and promotional photographyNew and improved English subtitles for the deaf and hard-of-hearingLimited edition exclusive booklet with a new essay by critic and broadcaster Danny Leigh, Dennis Potter and Theresa Russell on Track 29, an overview of contemporary critical responses, and film creditsWorld premiere on Blu-rayLimited Edition of 3,000 copiesAll extras subject to change
