'Fists in the Pocket' Director: Marco Bellocchio (1965) Criterion Collection Blu-ray | Director approved 4K restoration | Staff Pick | Italian w/ English subtitles Tormented by twisted desires, a young man takes drastic measures to rid his grotesquely dysfunctional family of its various afflictions, in this astonishing 1965 debut from Marco Bellocchio. With its coolly assured style, shocking perversity, and savage gallows humor, Fists in the Pocket was a gleaming ice pick in the eye of bourgeois family values and Catholic morality, a truly unique work that continues to rank as one of the great achievements of Italian cinema. Starring Lou Castel. Special features include:- Interviews from 2005 with cast and crew- Interview with scholar Stefano Albertini- Essay by film critic Deborah Young
