Carnal Knowledge Limited Edition 4K UHD bluray

Jack Nicholson (The Passenger) and Art Garfunkel (Bad Timing) star alongside Candice Bergen (Starting Over) and Ann-Margret (R.P.M.) in Carnal Knowledge, one of American cinema's most daring and provocative films, masterfully directed by Mike Nichols (The Graduate).

During their time at college, roommates Sandy (Garfunkel) and Jonathan (Nicholson) reveal their innermost feelings about girls and sex to each other, and each has his own strategy for getting what he wants. As they grow older and enter into new relationships, they continue to share their fantasies and frustrations about the opposite sex, each reacting in different ways to the mixture of boredom, lust, and indifference they experience.

The perfect dialogue from the pen of the great Jules Feiffer (Little Murders) and the exquisite photography of legendary Italian cinematographer Giuseppe Rotunno (Fellini Satyricon) are combined with consistently outstanding performances by the cast including from supporting actors Rita Moreno (The Night of the Following Day) and Carol Kane (The Last Detail) – to create an uncompromising and uncompromising classic from the New Hollywood era.
