Shout Factory has detailed its upcoming Blu-ray release of Neil Armfield's film
Candy (2006), starring Abbie Cornish, Heath Ledger, Geoffrey Rush, Adrienne Pickering, and Nathaniel Dean. The release will be available for purchase on December 3.
Synopsis: Dan (Ledger) is a charming but reckless young poet who falls in love with Candy (Cornish), a beautiful young student who is attracted to his bohemian lifestyle. In order to get closer to Dan, Candy follows in his wayward steps of drug addiction. Their passionate relationship then alternates between bursts of ecstatic oblivion and bouts of despair and self-destructive behavior. Hooked as much on heroin as they are on one another, they fall into an intense love triangle — a boy, a girl, and a drug.
