Description: CRASH by David Cronenberg 4K Ultra HD Blu-Ray Disc. Watched once. Clean disc, no marks. Case is clean, like new. Not an ex-rental. See photos. Winner of the Special Jury Prize Cannes 1996. The controversial cult classic, now refurbished in a stunning 4K restoration. Technology and sexuality meet in a head-on collision in Crash. Director David Cronenberg’s controversial adaptation of writer J.G. Ballards hugely transgressive 1973 novel starring James Spader and Holly Hunter. Spader stars as James Ballard, a film producer whose deviant sexual desires are awakened by a near fatal automobile accident with Dr. Helen Remington (Hunter). Soon the pair, alongside Ballard’s wife Catherine (Deborah Kara Unger), are drawn into an underground world of car crash fetishism presided over by renegade scientist Vaughan (Elias Koteas). Danger, sex and death become entwined as eroticism and technology join together in a disturbing, deadly union. Awarded the Special Jury Prize at the 1996 Cannes Film Festival for originality, daring and audacity, Crash remains an incredibly subversive and confrontational piece of cinema. Cronenberg himself describes it as a dangerous film. 4K ULTRA HD BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION CONTENTS 4K restoration of the uncut NC-17 version, supervised by director of photography Peter Suschitzky and approved by director David Cronenberg 4K (2160p) UHD Blu-ray presentation in High Dynamic Range 5.1 and 2.0 Stereo DTS-HD Master Audio.
