The Cook The Thief His Wife And Her Lover - Part one

[ndv180]

Watched this the other day for the first time in about 15 years (watched it a few times before). Amazing film. Absolutely top shelf.

[doctoriversong]

Watching this purely to see Alex kingston. Of the 2secs I saw of her in this part I can deduce one thing: OMFG SHE'S SOO YOUNG HERE!!!!!!!

[kuruptzZz]

wow Dumbledor is an asshole

[Solyans]

Les Belges bien sUr, offrent la version intégrale...

[fishandfestival]

I just watched this movie and it really stunned me, in a good way...Brilliant acting, particularly by "Mr. Spica", and brilliantly brutal.

[MrButtcrackJones]

Why has Criterion not released a boxset of Greenaway's films yet?

[eleonora1782]

one of the most unbelievably beautiful films. And the music is beyond amazing- Michael Nyman is a genius.

[derekb27]

This is edited for YouTube, isn't it?

[EastmanFilm]

@derekb27 It originally wasn't, but some prude decided to flag the most sexually explicit parts.

[cuntmonkey007]

This film is utter fabulousness. All time greatness. I adore it. "Pup" is so precious.

NOTE: Three parts are missing.

[diddymuck]

BEST???? this is utter claptrap!! A ranting creep in a palatial restaurant unaware his old lady is screwing on him. What the living hell is interesting or artistic about THAT???? Helen Mirren's baps are the only saving grace out of this goofy, pretentious, unwatchable load of whatever it is.

[cuntmonkey007]

@diddymuck Were you attempting to channel the character of Mr. Spica when you wrote this "review"? If so, kudos. If not...good god man, brush up your shakespeare.

The color and the costume was very fashion.

[wjrfec41]

[GimmeKitty]

I dont' think I can view it again, really. Just too freaky, really.

[GimmeKitty]

Lovely to see this but scared the *S* out of me when I first, viewed it.

[Azoicum]

Did Greenway get an Oscar?

[nemesisnow100]

[fietsvriend]

Dutch painter Frans Hals as an inspirator.....?

[Deadlybrit]

Im 30 and helen mirren is in her mid 60's BUT damn id shag her senseless, beautiful for her age, andthink of the experience....lol

[cragmac1000]

Ahh dude she's 60 in her day like "70's" Helen Mirren maybe but even then she was getting more "how's your father" than a 1000 beagles chasing their tale!

[cragmac1000]

Was that too "lincolnshire?"

[Nordinavia]

@cragmac1000 Yes

[mommyimadeapoopy]

id love to see this in a theatre..

[BeatenAndTortured]

April 6 1990...

Sorry... I'll kill those fuckers at rotten tomatoes...

lol

[crimsonflare506]

It's an '89 film. Was released in the UK in 89.

[BeatenAndTortured]

much oblige, my man

[BeatenAndTortured]

This was released in 89 bro...

Great fuckin film though...

[TulseLuper]

In America it was released in 1990 so that's probably where the confusion lies. Whatever year it was released, it's a masterpiece.

[BeatenAndTortured]

agreed

[iLoveHeathLedger15]

Thanks soooo much for uploading! I've looked for this everywhere!:D

[PeckerwoodCracker]

The most beautiful film ever made in terms of colors.

A masterpiece, thanks for uploading.

[Honeysucklebommie]

@PeckerwoodCracker And the whole masterpiece drips with atmosphere.

[89monet]
