I think there should be a rule that any Trintignant film must  receive a proper DVD release immediately with English subs. 

Just think of all the Robbe-Grillet, Questi, Brass, etc., films with Trintignant that are currently unavailable.

The insert in Cult Epic's excellent disc (save for the PAL-NTSC conversion) of THE VOYEUR mentions that the three upcoming Brass films are COL CUORE IN GOLA, L'URLO, and his documentary CA IRA (1964).

L'URLO has been listed on their website as forthcoming for ages... . .. . at least they have added COL CUORE IN GOLA to that list, it wasn't mentioned before.

Those three titles were listed as the next Brass box set though a date for that hasn't been set yet.

Looks as if this will be screened at the American Cinematheque at the Egyptian Theatre on July the 19th together with another Tinto Brass movie, L'URLO.

Both films are also scheduled to play on September 24th and 28th, 2008 at the YERBA BUENA CENTER OF THE ARTS in San Francisco according to Cult Epic's website.  They will be Digital Screenings, restored from the only existing prints. 

Get'em DVDs out now for the rest of us, Signor Cult Epic!    Gratzi!

Starring 17-year-old beauty-contest winner Ewa Aulin (CANDY), and Jean-Louis Trintignant (A MAN AND A WOMAN), Deadly Sweet is a most unusual crime story. In the film, a French actor finds his business contact lying murdered on the floor. Rather than call the police, he decides to protect the young woman at the scene and nail down the true killers, which puts him on a collision course with the London underworld. Deadly Sweet leads us through a mind-bending series of pop-art visuals by renowned erotic cartoonist GUIDO CREPAX, split screens, triple split screens, and the seductive rock score by Armando Trovajoli. Filmmaker Tinto Brass, who later gained fame for his soft-core erotica, wrote the screenplay in 1967, loosely adapted from a novel by Sergio Donati, as an outrageous attempt to turn the crime genre on its head. It can be said that with this film Cinema Fumetti (comic-book movies) was invented prior to the more known DANGER: DIABOLIK and BARBARELLA. Cult Epics is proud to present Deadly Sweet (aka Heart in his Mouth), a rare giallo thriller unseen since its initial theatrical release, whose lead actors went on to star in DEAD LAID AN EGG, a year after.

I like the cover, though I'd like to see some of the poster art somewhere too.

Will this have an English option ( like subs )?

[Michael Blanton]

Yes, Cult Epics are a US DVD company with  releases that are English language friendly.  I expect Italian language audio with (optional) English language subs, and maybe (but probably not) English language audio.
