The Criterion Collection Eating Raoul - The
Description
A sleeper hit of the early 1980s, Eating Raoul is a bawdy, gleefully amoral tale of conspicuous consumption. Warhol superstar Mary Woronov and cult legend Paul Bartel (who also directed) portray a prudish married couple feeling put upon by the swingers who live in their apartment building; one night, by accident, they discover a way to simultaneously realize their dream of opening a little restaurant and rid themselves of the perverts down the hall. A mix of hilarious, anything-goes slapstick and biting satire of me-generation self-indulgence, Eating Raoul marks the end of the sexual revolution with a thwack.Special Edition Features:New, restored digital transfer, supervised by director of photography Gary Thieltges, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack on the Blu-ray editionAudio commentary featuring screenwriter Richard Blackburn, art director Robert Schulenberg, and editor Alan ToomayanThe Secret Cinema (1968) and Naughty Nurse (1969), two short films by director Paul BartelCooking Up Raoul, a new documentary about the making of the film, featuring interviews with stars Mary Woronov, Robert Beltran, and Edie McClurgGag reel of outtakes from the filmArchival interview with Bartel and WoronovTrailerPlus: A booklet featuring an essay by film critic David Ehrenstein
