[Machine Translation] The time has come to knock on the door of the "cursed filmmaker" who passed away with the words, "To wake the dead, you must knock hard. French filmmaker Jean Eustache became the darling of the age with his masterpiece "Mama and the Whore," which has left its mark on the history of cinema. In 2024, a 4K digitally remastered version of "Mama and the Whore" was screened in Paris, New York, and other cities, and the world was again astonished by its poignant beauty. The world was again astonished by its tragic beauty. The world was again astonished by its tragic beauty, and even in Japan, where his films have rarely been seen, the full picture, shrouded in mystery, is finally being revealed. The previously released DVDs in Japan are now out of print, and the latest 4K restored masters have been released on Blu-ray for the first time in Japan, much anticipated by film fans! --Set in Paris in 1972, the film depicts the strange love triangle between Alexandre, a young unemployed man still haunted by memories of the May Revolution, his older lover Marie, and Veronica, a sexually unrestrained nurse in her 20s whom the former meets in a cafe. The film, Eustache's first feature film, is also a story based on the filmmaker's personal experiences through its unparalleled running time of nearly four hours. Eustache wrote the script based on his relationships with several women, including Leblanc (who plays Veronica), with whom he had just had a breakup at the time. The completed film won the Special Grand Prix of the Jury at the Cannes International Film Festival. The film, which depicts sexual relations between a man and a woman in a frank and unabashed manner, including dialogue, caused a scandal, but it is now firmly established as one of the greatest films in the history of cinema. A booklet explaining the film and postcards are included. This product is a FullHD Blu-ray.

「死者を起こすには、強くノックすること」そう遺して世を去った"呪われた映像作家"の扉を、いよいよ叩くときが来た。映画史に残る傑作『ママと娼婦』で、一躍時代の寵児となったフランスの映画監督、ジャン・ユスターシュ。しかし度重なる奇行、自己破壊的な行動が影響してか、その後1本の長編とわずかな中・短編を手がけただけで、1981年、42歳にして拳銃自殺を遂げた。2024年、4Kデジタルリマスターで甦った『ママと娼婦』がパリ、ニューヨークをはじめ各地で上映され、その痛ましいまでの美しさに世界は再び驚愕した。そしてほとんど彼の作品を観ることができなかったわが国でも、謎に包まれた全貌がついに明らかになる。既発の国内版DVDは廃盤プレミア化しており、最新の4Kレストアマスターで映画ファン待望の国内初Blu-ray化!! ――72年のパリを舞台に、五月革命の記憶を引きずる無職の若者アレクサンドルと彼の年上の恋人マリー、前者がカフェで知り合った性に奔放な20代の看護師ヴェロニカの奇妙な三角関係を描く。ユスターシュにとって最初の長編映画である本作は、四時間近い破格の上映時間を通じて、やはり作家の私的経験に基づいた物語を綴っていく。ユスターシュは、当時破局を迎えたばかりだったルブラン(ヴェロニカ役を演じている)をはじめ、自身と複数の女性との関係に基づいて脚本を執筆した。完成作はカンヌ国際映画祭で審査員特別グランプリを獲得。男女の性的関係が台詞も含めて赤裸々に描かれた本作はスキャンダルをも巻き起こしたが、今や映画史上の傑作の一本として不動の地位を築いている。作品解説ブックレット、ポストカード封入。※本商品は、FullHD Blu-rayとなります。
