## Description

This boldly cinematic trio of stories about love and loss from Krzysztof Kieślowski ( The Double Life of Véronique ) was a defining event of the art-house boom of the 1990s. The films were named for the colors of the French flag and stand for the tenets of the French Revolution—liberty, equality, and fraternity—but this hardly begins to explain their enigmatic beauty and rich humanity. Set in Paris, Warsaw, and Geneva, and ranging from tragedy to comedy, Blue , White , and Red (Kieślowski’s final film) examine with artistic clarity a group of ambiguously interconnected people experiencing profound personal disruptions. Marked by intoxicating cinematography and stirring performances by such actors as Juliette Binoche ( Summer Hours ), Julie Delpy ( Before Sunset ), Irène Jacob ( The Double Life of Véronique ), and Jean-Louis Trintignant ( Z ), Kieślowski’s Three Colors is a benchmark of contemporary cinema. Blue In the devastating first film of the Three Colors trilogy, Juliette Binoche gives a tour de force performance as Julie, a woman reeling from the tragic deaths of her husband and young daughter. But Blue is more than just a blistering study of grief; it’s also a tale of liberation, as Julie learns truths about her late composer husband’s life and attempts to free herself of the past. Shot in icily gorgeous tones by Sławomir Idziak ( The Double Life of Véronique ) and set to an extraordinary operatic score by Zbigniew Preisner ( The Secret Garden ), Blue is an overwhelming sensory experience. 1993 98 minutes Color 2.0 surround In French with English subtitles 1.85:1 aspect ratio White The most playful but also the grittiest of Kieślowski’s Three Colors films follows the adventures of Karol Karol ( The Pianist’s Zbigniew Zamachowski), a Polish immigrant living in France. The hapless hairdresser opts to leave Paris for his native Warsaw after his wife (Julie Delpy) sues him for divorce (her reason: he was never able to perform in bed) and then frames him for arson after setting her own salon ablaze. White , which goes on to chronicle Karol Karol’s elaborate revenge plot, manages to be both a ticklish dark comedy about the economic inequalities of Eastern and Western Europe and a sublime reverie about twisted love. 1993 91 minutes Color 2.0 surround In French and Polish with English subtitles 1.85:1 aspect ratio Red Krzysztof Kieślowski closes his Three Colors trilogy in grand fashion with an incandescent meditation on fate and chance, starring Irène Jacob as a sweet-souled yet somber runway model in Geneva whose life intersects with that of a bitter retired judge, played by Jean Louis Trintignant. Their blossoming friendship forces each to open up in surprising emotional ways. Meanwhile, just down the street, a seemingly unrelated story of jealousy and betrayal unfolds. Red is an intimate look at forged connections and a splendid final statement from a remarkable filmmaker at the height of his powers. 1994 99 minutes Color 2.0 surround In French with English subtitles 1.85:1 aspect ratio

Review: Perhaps the greatest trilogy in film history! - The Three Colors Trilogy (Criterion Collection) is a fantastic box set. The films themselves, especially Blue and Red are incredible. I won't go into what the films are about as I'm sure it's stated several other places. I will say that in these films, the use of color, use of limited dialogue, music, mise-en-scene, and camerawork - we see something that cinema is capable of that no other form of art is. Kieslowski really stretches the limits of filmmaking through deep levels of poetic and metaphoric language and imagery and is able to some up complex relationships in a single shot. The Criterion Collection has done a great job as usual with a tremendous amount of special features, remastered versions, and a large booklet with interviews and an array of interesting behind the scenes materials. The last DVD has two of Kieslowski's earlier documentaries. I have rarely seen so many special features in a film set. Three Colors: Blue, White, Red is most definitely worth the money.
Review: Blu-Ray. Criterion. UPC: 715515089012. 4k Addenum. - Video is better than the DVD. Seems grainy, but the BD version has more detail than the DVD version. Color is not as saturated (see picture with BD version scaled down) in a few scenes on the BD version. I'm divided on this, even though the more subtle color stands on its own too. Didn't notice a difference in audio quality from the DVD. Criterion version is missing audio commentaries on the DVD... which I knew before buying. Addenum for 4k: The HDR on the 4k takes care of the problem I had with the washed out color on the BD. The movie looks good, but it strikes me as odd, since I've been used to seeing it in non-HDR for decades. Aside from the HDR, not much different from the BD version.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Classics for the Cinéphile
*by M***Y on April 4, 2024*

"Trois Couleurs: Bleu, Blanc, Rouge" is my favorite film series of all time. This magnum opus of Kieslowski is a clear love letter to Paris to to his home country of Poland. "Amélie" & "The Sixth Sense" clearly derive their symbolic uses of colors from Kieslowski. I watch this film over & over. If you're a true cinéphile, then you must add this to your film collection.
