Criterion Collection - Mother & The Whore - Blu-ray

Shiftless Paris intellectual Alexandre (Jean-Pierre Laud) readily strung along his unhappy working-class live-in lover Marie (Bernadette Lafont) as he searched for outside affairs, and found one when he pursued hospital nurse Veronika (Franoise Lebrun). Veronika's confrontation of the two leads to a polyamorous relationship-but the arrangement may irrevocably wear on all three. Jean Eustache's acclaimed study co-stars Isabelle Weingarten, Genevive Mnich. 3 1/2 hrs. Standard; Soundtrack: French mono; Subtitles: English; featurettes; theatrical trailer. In French with English subtitles.
