Product Description:
Russia released, DIGIPAK GIFT EDITION, NTSC (USA and Canada), ALL REGION, FULL SCREEN. AUDIO OPTIONS: Dolby Digital 2.0 ENGLISH (movie is completely in English) and Dolby Digital 2.0 RUSSIAN (voice-over). .............................................................. SYNOPSIS: Zabriskie Point, director Michelangelo Antonioni's only American film, is an unusual, visually stunning examination of youthful rebellion against the Establishment. The film, initially presented in quasi-documentary style, presents a group of college activists discussing key issues of their political agenda. Mark (Mark Frechette) steals an airplane and flies over a desert where he meets Daria (Daria Halprin). She is the pot-smoking secretary to businessman Lee Allen (Rod Taylor), while he is a rebel searching for a worthy cause. In the midst of the arid surroundings, Mark and Daria fall in love. Antonioni's nonrealistic approach to American counterculture myths, his loose and sluggish narrative, and the dialogue (credited to Fred Gardner, Sam Shepard, Tonino Guerra, Clare Peploe, and Antonioni) caused Zabriskie Point to be poorly received when it was first released. The score features songs from Pink Floyd, The Grateful Dead, Kaleidoscope, The Rolling Stones, John Fahey, The Youngbloods and Patti Page.

Let's talk about this edition, since everybody reading this probably already has an opinion about the movie. This is a Russian edition, with Russian menus, Russian liner notes, and Russian narration (which thankfully can be turned OFF). It is most likely a bootleg, since the focus is pretty significantly fuzzy throughout, and the film is not to my knowledge officially available on DVD due to music clearances. The DVD cuts off at the last scene, before the credits. The "extras" consist solely of ... Read More

First, this DVD is Russian, poor quality and not in wide screen. But it's the only one available so we have to make do. This is the weakest of Antonioni's English language films: "Blow Up" and "The Passenger" are much better. So what went wrong: lousy, amateur actors, multiple script writers (incl Sam Shepard) make a real pig's ear of any pretense of a story and some rabid anti-Americanism. But it's worth seeing for one reason only: the final 10 mins of the desert house blowing up. It's up there with ... Read More

Director Michelangelo Antonioni's ZABRISKIE POINT is a masterpiece of pure cinema that somehow seems lost to those that despised it as well as to those that embraced it back in 1970. Mark (Mark Frechette) the iconoclast hero is disenchanted with the discussion of college students that we see him congregate with inside a lecture hall somewhere in Los Angeles. The students discuss peace and peace activism conducted and achieved through acts of civil disobedience. Apparently they can't reach a consensus ... Read More

I was nervous when it arrived because the dvd package was in Russian. But it's an English speaking movie. My man's favorite and it was new to me. Good film, awesome soundrack!

Give an European art film director too much money (as Hollywood always does) and this is what you can expect. The photography (despite the laughably unending house explosion at the finale) and the music aside (buy the album instead of the movie), the most memorable dialogue spoken by the catatonic actors as they sit in the sand and comment on the desert, She: "It's beautiful." He: "It's dead." So's the movie.
