BURN! (QUEIMADA!) (1969) – [IMPRINT LIMITED EDITION] (BLU-RAY)

Description: THE MAN WHO SELLS WAR. THE BLOODIER THE BATTLE – THE HIGHER THE PRICE. HE’S GOING TO MAKE A FORTUNE ON THIS ONE.A Caribbean Island in the mid-1800’s. Nature has made it a paradise; man has made it a hell. Slaves on vast Portuguese sugar plantations are ready to turn their misery into rebellion – and the British are ready to provide the spark. They send agent William Walker (Marlon Brando) on a devious three-part mission: trick the slaves into revolt, grab the sugar trade for England…then return the slaves to servitude.Gillo Pontecorvo, the acclaimed director of The Battle of Algiers, explores colonialism and insurrection in the searing epic Burn! Marlon Brando delivers a complex, intelligent portrayal of a man who is both gentleman and scoundrel, revolutionary and colonialist and always considered his performance in Burn! as one of his finest. Ennio Morricone’s (The Untouchables, The Mission) haunting music memorably underscores the almost overwhelmingly powerful story.Starring Marlon Brando, Evaristo Márquez, Renato Salvatori & Dana Ghia.Limited Edition 2 Disc Hardbox. 1500 copies only.Special Features and Technical Specs: Disc One – Original Cut (Italian)1080p High-definition presentation on Blu-ray from a 4K scanTheatrical TrailerAspect Ratio 1.66:1Audio Italian LPCM 2.0 MonoOptional English subtitlesDisc Two – Export Cut (English)1080p High-definition presentation on Blu-ray from a 2K scanNEW Audio commentary by film historians Alain Silver & Jim UrsiniNEW The Brando Interregnum: The Decade of Marlon’s Dirty Dozen (1962 – 1972) – Video essay by filmmaker Daniel KremerNEW Author Neil Sinyard on Burn!NEW The Stalwart Rebel: Brando in the 1960’s – documentary with author/Brando biographer William J.
