Bugonia and Anemone: the films of two special directors in home video

Two films that have made a lot of talk about themselves at the cinema arrive at home video with Universal and Plaion Pictures. Let’s talk about Bugonia by Yorgos Lanthimos and Anemone by Ronan Day-Lewis, symbolic since their titles: not easy and immediate, to enjoy also on the sofa.

Acclaimed by critics and audiences, Bugonia is in home video n DVD, Blu-ray and for the first time for a Lanthimos film in the Steelbook 4K Ultra HD+Blu-ray edition. Two simple amarays but full of charm: this time it wins the content more than the container, in addition to the technical work done on the HD high resolution.

The five-time Oscar candidate Yorgos Lanthimos masterfully directs his most twisted film ever, with a satirical and compelling cut and scene shots out of this world. Claimed by criticism as a “master provocateur”, Lanthimos drags the public into the paranoia and leaves it with doubt about what is really happening.

The suspense and comic and dark chemistry among opposing characters Emma Stone (Kinds of Kindness, Povere Creature, La Favorita) and Jesse Plemons (Killers of the Flower Moon, The Power of the Dog) fuel this thriller that challenges genres, where every interaction hides a secret and trust is the most dangerous coin.

Extremely funny psychological Thriller, the film follows two young people obsessed with conspiracies that kidnap a powerful CEO who believe they are an alien willing to destroy humanity. What begins as a paranoid act is transformed into a battle of delusions and control, both visibly unpredictable and provocative.

Bugonia (from the Greek bougonía, “birth from the ox”) is an ancient ritual and myth, described by Virgil in the Georgics, according to which the bees could spontaneously generate from the carcass decomposition of a ox. It represents the birth of life from death.

The special content The Birth of Bees: Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons and the rest of the cast and crew reveal what it takes to bring a Lanthimos film to the screen in all its fascinating and wonderful glory.

Anemone: film ed edizione blu-ray

The anemone is a flower with different shapes and colors, has a thousand identity and facets. It is a poor creature that must be protected and guarded with utmost care.

Ronan Day-Lewis presented his work first to Alice in the City live with his father Daniel Day-Lewis, film star next to Sean Bean and Samantha Morton.

The film explores the complex and profound links between brothers, fathers and children. The actor returned from a farewell to the scenes for this film, as a gift for his son, giving even more value to the “meta” element of the story.

Disquieting secrets resurrect when two now stranger brothers (Day-Lewis and Bean) are forced to confront their tormented past, decades after one of them retreated into exile among the woods. Commotive and intense, the debut at the direction of Ronan tells a mysterious and visually extraordinary story of broken bonds and a difficult journey towards redemption.

Unfortunately, no extras are present in the home video edition, thus allowing collectors to discover the behind scenes with father and son if not from what they shared online.
