«El cocinero, el ladrón, su mujer y su amante» is the dramatic movie by Peter Greenaway (1990), starring Michael Gambon, Helen Mirren and Tim Roth, on DVD.
A brutal gangster exercises his tyranny every night in the luxury restaurant he controls; his wife, weary, finds solace in another man and the cook is a silent witness to the affair. On that basis, the film develops a story of desire, food, violence and betrayal with an over-the-top and provocative staging.
Director's Cut edition on DVD, released by Universal for region 2; runs 158 minutes and its audio includes Spanish, English, French, German and Italian.
Not recommended for under-18s; aimed at adult viewers seeking a provocative European drama with a highly distinctive visual aesthetic.
