Kino Lorber have detailed their upcoming Blu-ray release of Henri Verneuil's The Body of My Enemy (1976), starring Jean-Paul Belmondo, Bernard Blier, Marie-France Pisier, Charles Gérard, and Daniel Ivernel. The release will be available for purchase on April 5.
Label description: François Leclercq (Belmondo) once romanced the beautiful Gilberte Liégard (Marie-France Pisier, Trans-Europ-Express), daughter of a powerful textile baron (Bernard Blier, Buffet Froid). Now only hatred holds them together. Framed for murder and imprisoned for seven years, François returns to his hometown seeking vengeance. He needs friends. And friends are hard to come by in his town. Featuring masterful cinematography by Jean Penzer (The Inheritor) and a rousing score by Francis Lai (Love Story), The Body of My Enemy is a unique, twist-filled neo-noir that offers a sharp critique of the French upper classes—with the ultra-suave Belmondo in top form.
