STATELINE MOTEL BLU-RAY

Description

STATELINE MOTEL BLU-RAY

Ursula Andress – voted the No.1 Bond girl of all time, emerged from the sea in ‘Dr. No’ – Bond’s first outing – and into film history. Here she leads a heavyweight cast including a snarling Eli Wallach (The Good, the Bad and the Ugly), and action hunk Fabio Testi (The Big Racket).
A second Bond girl, the alluring Barbara Bach (The Spy Who Loved Me), completes this iconic ensemble.

But this is no quip-filled Hollywood caper. Under the gritty direction of Maurizio Lucidi – a master of emotional tensions – these cinema legends deliver powerful performances in a sleek psychological thriller elevated by a moody score from Oscar® winner Luis Bacalov (The Postman, Django).

After a deadly heist and a breathtaking car chase, criminals Wallach and Testi split up to evade police. Testi is tasked with getting the stolen jewels across the U.S.-Canada border, where he holes up in a sleepy border-town motel. There, he meets Michelle (Andress), smouldering as the trophy wife of the motel owner. A twisted sexual game of cat and mouse ignites, charged by the genuine chemistry between Andress and Testi. In this edition’s exclusive interview, Fabio Testi confirms that their long romance began on the set of this film.

As the lovers plan their escape, the stolen jewels vanish… An enraged Eli Wallach loads his gun and speeds toward the Stateline Motel for a final confrontation.

This is the definitive, longest ever, uncut, 2K-restored version of this long-lost gem, presented for the first time in its English version, now fully overhauled.
