USA Jean de Florette / Manon of the Spring (Double Feature) (1986)


Jean De Florette / Manon of the Spring Blu-ray



Source

Jean de Florette: IMDB - 8.1 ( 17,232 users )

Manon of the Spring : IMDB 8.1 ( 14,420 users )



Quote:
Yves Montand (The Wages Of Fear) and Gérard Depardieu (Cyrano de Bergerac) star in Jean de Florette, a timeless tale of greed, survival and fate. Set amidst the rugged hills of Provence, this epic saga follows the heroic efforts of Jean Cadoret (Depardieu), who inherits a farm from his mother, Florette, and leaves his city job behind, hoping to create a "new Eden" with his wife and daughter. But, unbeknownst to Jean, his greedy neighbor, Cesar Soubeyran (Montand), is plotting to steal the land out from under him with a wicked scheme that drives Jean to the brink of madness!

Ten years after her father's death, Manon (Emmanuelle Béart, Un Coeur en Hiver) has no idea that her neighbor Cesar Soubeyran (Montand) cheated her out of her father's land. But when Manon discovers that Soubeyran was directly responsible for her father's death, she goes after him with a vengeance in this "epic [and] rousing tale of retribution" (Newsweek)! Daniel Auteuil (Cache, 36th Precinct) also stars.

Oh, glory! I have been wanting this so long. The French edition doesn't have English subtitles.

It seems great announcements just keep coming.

Great news indeed. But I'm concerned about the PQ and if there will be any special features...

Wow! I was expecting either Criterion or Twilight Time on this one. But this works.

Great news! Anyone knows what the picture quality is like on other Blu-ray releases that these movies have had?

The only ones that exist, as far as I know, are French and Dutch and they do not have English subtitles. I haven't got either of these since, as a provincial American, I'm not fluent in any language but English.

One user review on this site gives the picture on the French discs a 3/5.

If you know French and/or Dutch you might try asking on the French and/or Benelux subforums in International.
