Safe R2 Ws (Uk Import) - Haynes, Todd
Releasedatum: 30 maart 2009
Imagine becoming allergic to everything you enjoy: clothes, food, sex, friends... welcome to "20th Century illness". A terrifying reflection of society's deepest fears, Todd Haynes' Safe is a chilling environmental horror story where the enemy lurks in the air that we breath. Julianne Moore gives an impeccable performance as Carol White, a typically bored, affluent Californian housewife. Her world of domestic oblivion careers off its axis when she develops a mystery illness that puts her at odds with every aspect of the world around her - cars, dry cleaners, hair perms and even the new couch! Gradually she develops nosebleeds, vomiting and breathing problems and finally collapses. In a desperate search for what is "safe", she opts for virtual isolation in a procelain igloo in the Texas desert, where the inhabitants drag round oxygen cylinders and the therapists act like evangelical preachers.

DVD Extra's:
