"A mordant, chilling, hilarious dirty movie!"-The New York Times
Marco Ferreri's greatest international success, La Grande Bouffe (The Blow-Out, The Big Feast), scandalized audiences when it was released in 1973.Audiences were shocked by its tale of four world-weary middle-aged men (superbly portrayed by Marcello Mastroianni, Ugo Tognazzi, Michel Piccoli and Philippe Noiret) who decide to gorge themselves to death in one final orgiastic weekend full of gourmet food, call girls and a hefty, lusty schoolteacher.
This blackly humorous parable of modern society's collapse from Europe's "master of bad taste" won the Cannes Film Festival's International Critics Award.Nearly 30 years later, it continues to challenge audiences' sensibilities and test the limits of shockability.
