About this product
Based on Norman Lindsay's controversial autobiographical 1935 novel, Age of Consent is the story of an artist (James Mason), grown tired of producing art for wealthy Americans, who moves to the wilds of Australia's Great Barrier Reef where he meets Cora (Helen Mirren), a teenage girl who inspires him and becomes his muse - as well as the object of his desire. The penultimate film from the great Michael Powell (Black Narcissus, The Red Shoes, Peeping Tom), Age of Consent explores the obsessive nature of an artist approaching the twilight of his career. Misjudged and mis-handled on it's initial (when the distributor removed key scenes and re-scored the film), Age of Consent is now regarded as one of Powell's key works. Region free

When director Gregory LaCava (My Man Godfrey) was casting The Age of Consent, he found his lovely leading lady just a steno pad away. He chose RKO secretary (and soon-to-be WAMPAS Baby Star) Dorothy Wilson to headline this sensitive pre-Code tale of love and lust. The film follows college student Michael Harvey (Richard Cromwell) and his sweetheart (Wilson). They plan to marry in two years, after Michael graduates. But two years is a lo
There's never a shortage of travails for adult kids of aging parents, but it went to another level for sibs Noah and Meg Robles (Josh Gad, Kaya Scodelario), who started cleaning the homestead after their mom was hospitalized with a major stroke-and found the corpse of their 30-years-missing neighbor walled up in the basement. Rather than go to the cops, they opt to get rid of the body themselves... which precipitates more disaster. Dark farce co-featuring Billie Lourd, Anthony Carrigan, and director Alex Winter. 97 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Region Free
A futuristic British government coalition manipulates the masses through the aggressive promotion of rock star Steven Shorter (Manfred Mann frontman Paul Jones). Shorter's outrageous act and eccentric persona provide hypnotic diversions to a public hooked on melody and masochism, a campaign of awe-inspiring synergy that starts to crack when Shorter meets a portrait artist (model Jean Shrimpton, in her only film role). Peter Watkins' grim satire co-stars Mark London, William Job. 103 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack English DTS Lossless stereo; Subtitles English; audio commentary; theatrical trailer.
