About this product
Winner of an Honorary Oscar for lifetime achievement, Charles Burnett is one of the world's most important filmmakers. In his astonishing The Annihilation of Fish, James Earl Jones (Field of Dreams, Claudine) stars as Obidiah Fish Johnson, a Jamaican widower recently released from a mental hospital, despite his continuing battles against an invisible demon named Hank. Relocating to Los Angeles, he moves into the boarding house of eccentric landlady, Mrs. Muldroone, (Margot Kidder, Superman). There he meets Poinsettia, played by Lynn Redgrave (Georgy Girl, Gods and Monsters), who has recently fled San Francisco and her fiance, the ghost of composer Giacomo Puccini. Hailed by critics and audiences as funny, compassionate, and tender, Burnett's long-lost film treasure is available for the first time. Restoration by UCLA Film & Television Archive and The Film Foundation in collaboration with Milestone Films with funding provided by the Hobson/Lucas Family Foundation.
