Blood Simple - Directors Cut
In cooperation with StudioCanal and Intro
Since his wife Abby (Frances McDormand) would rather go to bed with his new employee Ray, bar owner Marty hires seedy private investigator Visser to have her and her new lover killed. Visser collects the money, but instead of killing the two, he offs his client Marty. Now all suspicions lead to Abby and Ray. Both a nail-biting thriller and a terrifically dark comedy, BLOOD SIMPLE already shows all the hallmarks of the Coen brother's mindset. It's a masterpiece that became an 80s cult hit and influenced a whole generation of filmmakers. It's a no-punches-pulled mixture of betrayal, fraud, miscommunication and murder. In co-operation with StudioCanal the Film Festival Cologne presents the restored 4K Directors Cut.
