Bernardo Bertolucci's masterpiece is a political drama set in Mussolini's Italy starring Jean-Louis Trintignant as a repressed man trying to purge memories of a youthful, homosexual episode – and murder – who joins the Fascists in a desperate attempt to fit in.

A cult erotic drama from the perverse imagination of Alain Robbe-Grillet, SUCCESSIVE SLIDINGS OF PLEASURE delves into the twisted mind of a young woman suspected in the stabbing death of her roommate Nora. Imprisoned in a convent, the girl's seductive wiles hypnotize the cops and clerics that surround her. All submit to her sexual whims, and are drawn into a sado-masochistic world where fantasy and reality are pleasurably blurred.
