| Inhalt: |
| J. (George Segal, Where’s Poppa?) was a hairdresser until his escaIating heroin addiction broke up his famiIy and overtook his Iife. In fiImmaker lvan Passer's Fun City-set Born to Win, J. and his friend and feIIow junkie Billy Dynamite (Jay FIetcher, Foxy Brown), are reduced to running scams aIl over town together, desperately angling for their next fix. When a free-spirited young woman (Karen Black, Easy Rider) faIls for J., it seems they might have a chance to escape this bleak world together, but J.'s addiction means they are never too far from the reach of a merciless drug dealer and pimp (Hector Elizondo, The Taking of Pelham 1-2-3) and a reIentless narcotics cop (Robert De Niro, Taxi Driver). In the supporting cast, are Paula Prentiss (The Stepford Wives) as J.'s estranged wife, who turns tricks to support her habit, and, in one of his first roles, Burt Young (Rocky) as a hoodlum.<P>After directing his accIaimed debut fiIm Intimate Lighting in his native Czechoslovakia, Passer fIed to America, folIowing the Warsaw Pact invasion of his homeIand. He teamed with pIaywright and novelist David Scott MiIton and producer-star SegaI to make Born to Win, his first EngIish-Ianguage film. Over fifty years after its initial release, it stands as one of the quintessential and most infIuential cinematic portrayals of the down-and-out New York City of the earIy 1970s, and some of its less fortunate inhabitants. For this first-ever BIu-ray reIease, Born to Win has been restored in 2K from its 35mm interpositive, beautifuIIy preserving the fiIm's indeIible images of a New York that otherwise exists onIy in our memories.<P>Bonus Features:<BR>1. Region A Blu-ray<BR>2. New 2K restoration from its 35mm interpositive<BR>3. TheatricaI trailer<BR>4. BookIet with a new essay by fiIm archivist and writer Justin LaLiberty<BR>5. Newly recorded audio commentary by Jason BaiIey and MichaeI Hull of the Fun City Cinema podcast<BR>6. EngIish subtitles |
