Three Colors: Blue (Blu-ray)

Juliette Binoche gives a tour de force performance as Julie, a woman reeling from the tragic death of her husband and young daughter, in this first film from Krzysztof Kielowskis Three Colors trilogy. But Blue is more than just a blistering study of grief; its also a tale of liberation, as Julie attempts to free herself from the past while confronting truths about the life of her late husband, a composer. Shot in sapphire tones by Sawomir Idziak and set to an extraordinary operatic score by Zbigniew Preisner, Blue is an overwhelming sensory experience.BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES High-definition digital restoration, with 2.0 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack Cinema lesson with director Krzysztof Kielowski Video essay by film studies professor Annette Insdorf Interview with Three Colors composer Zbigniew Preisner Selected-scene commentary featuring actor Juliette Binoche Reflections on Blue and Kielowski: The Early Years, featuring Binoche, Insdorf, film critic Geoff Andrew, f
