Pablo Larrain Double Feature (DVD)
Two films from acclaimed Chilean filmmaker Pablo Larrain in one collection. In TONY MANERO, a middle-aged thug obsessed with the disco king played by John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever splits his time between disco dancing and wreaking mayhem. In POST MORTEM, a morgue clerk’s obsession with a burlesque dancer plays out against the violence of Chile’s 1973 military coup.
