He would create a quartet of interconnected films, each in a different genre. One was to be a love story, another a Western, and there was to be a fantastical thriller and a musical comedy starring Anna Karina and Jean Marais too.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIll health intervened, and only two of the films were completed. Duelle (une quarantine) sees Rivette in fantasy territory, cross-pollinating Val Lewton, Jean Cocteau and film noir as the Queen of the Sun (Bulle Ogier) and the Queen of the Night (Juliet Berto) search for a magical diamond in present day. Its parallel film, Noroît (une vengeance), is a pirate tale and a loose adaptation of The Revenger s Tragedy starring Geraldine Chaplin (Nashville, Cría cuervos).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA third film began production Marie et Julien starring Albert Finney and Leslie Caron but Rivette succumbed to nervous exhaustion and shooting was abandoned. When he did return to filmmaking, Rivette borrowed some of the elements of Duelle and Noroît and came up with Merry-Go-Round. Joe Dallesandro (Trash, Flesh for Frankenstein) and Maria Schneider (Last Tango in Paris, The Passenger) are summoned to Paris, which leads to one of the most surreal and mysterious tales in a career that was dominated by surrealism and mystery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLIMITED EDITION CONTENTS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHigh Definition Blu-ray (1080p) and Standard Definition DVD presentations of all three films from brand new 2K restorations of the films\u003cbr\u003eOriginal mono audio (uncompressed PCM on the Blu-rays)\u003cbr\u003eOptional newly-translated English subtitles for all films\u003cbr\u003eScenes from a Parallel Life: Jacques Rivette Remembers archive interview with the director, in which he discusses Duelle (une quarantaine), Noroit (une vengeance) and Merry-Go-Round\u003cbr\u003eRemembering Duelle Bulle Ogier and Hermine Karagheuz recollect their work on the 1976 feature\u003cbr\u003eInterview with critic Jonathan Rosenbaum, who reported from the sets of both Duelle (une quarantaine) and Noroit (une vengeance)\u003cbr\u003eExclusive perfect-bound book containing writing on the films by Mary M.
