A Quiet Place In The Country Limited Edition Blu-Ray

Leonardo (Franco Nero, The Day of the Owl) is a famous artist who is plagued by nightmares that prevent him from completing his works. His agent and occasional lover, Flavia (Vanessa Redgrave, The Devils), encourages him to relax, so he buys a villa in the countryside. Once there, he begins to trace the history of the previous owner, while Flavia's presence in the house seems to awaken something as she encounters one mysterious accident after another. A ghost story and a meditation on the creative process told through the excesses of the 1960s. Elio Petri (The Working Class Goes to Heaven) brilliantly combines these ideasin a way that is sometimes shocking, but still thought-provoking in its exploration of art, sex, and madness, to an eerie film score by Ennio Morricone.
