Independent U.S. distributors Cult Epics will release on Blu-ray director Tinto Brass' film
The Voyeur a.k.a.
L'uomo che Guarda (1994), starring Katarina Vasilissa, Francesco Casale, and Cristina Garavaglia. The release is scheduled to arrive on the market on September 8.
Synopsis:
The Voyeur, based on the famous erotic novel
Luomo che Guarda by Alberto Moravia, tells the story of Eduardo Dodo, who in public is a professor of French literature but in private a desperately lovesick cuckold, married to the ever-more-elusive Sylvia. His life is shattered when he becomes an onlooker rather than a participant in life. Those around him, though, seem to be living life to the fullest. His bedridden father has a scantily clad nurse, his students have unending sexual fun, sometimes in his presence, and even the public beach has become and orgy ground. Through a series of small revelations, Dodo slowly comes to realize who his rival is, the discovery, rather than destroying his marriage, strengthens and renews it.
Erotic filmmaker Tinto Brass is here at the height of his powers, crafting an unforgettable fable of sexual desire. The music by Riz Ortolani is seductive, the set designs are sumptuous, and the photography is as stunning as Hitchcock's, and the lead performers, Franceso Casale and Katarina Vasillissa (a Polish photomodel), are eye-catching.
The upcoming Blu-ray release will include a new high-definition transfer of the uncut version of the film, with the original Italian language track and a newly mixed English language track.
