His Motorbike, Her Island - BLU-RAY

Smarting after a breakup, young Kawasaki enthusiast Koh (Riki Takeuchi, in his film debut) took notice of Inland Sea island girl Miyo (Kiwako Harada), who seemed fascinated by his beloved bike, as well as by him. As their romance blossomed, however, her wanting to push the envelope as she learned to ride herself left him fearing for their future-and for hers. Nobuhiko Obayashi's affecting romance also stars Noriko Watanabe, Tomokazu Miura, Takahiro Tamura. 90 min.

Meticulous thief Tom Carter (Liam Neeson) has stolen $9 million from small-town banks while keeping his identity a secret. But after he falls in love with the bubbly Annie (Kate Walsh), Tom decides to come clean about his criminal past, only to be double-crossed by two ruthless FBI agents. Packed with action, Honest Thief is a tale of redemption and one man's mission to make things right for the sake of love.

Clement (Jean-Louis Trintignant, Il sorpasso) is a wealthy son of an industrialist who lives a secret life as a right-wing terrorist. Double-crossed following an assassination attempt he flees to the countryside with his wife, Anne (Romy Schneider, La piscine) where they stay with his childhood friend, Paul (Henri Serre, Jules et Jim). Clement plots his revenge but Anne falls for Paul and a love triangle is just one of many complications in this multi-layered discovery from the French New Wave. With the support of producer Louis Malle, Alain Cavalier (Fill 'Er Up with Super) directed his debut, a noirish drama beautifully shot by cinematographer Pierre Lhomme (Army of Shadows). While echoing the political turmoil of the 1960s, the film probes bourgeois values and the relationship between S*x and violence, acting as a precursor to The Conformist and demonstrating the influence of Chabrol.
