The People Next Door - Limited Edition

The People Next Door is an unflinching portrayal of a New York family torn asunder by drug abuse. Eli Wallach (Winter Kills) and Julie Harris (The Haunting) give compelling performances as parents whose marriage is pushed to the brink when their daughter Maxie (Deborah Winters) experiments with LSD and heroin, before experiencing a mental breakdown. Assuredly directed by David Greene (I Start Counting, Gray Lady Down), making his first American feature, and beautifully shot by Gordon Willis (Little Murders, The Godfather), The People Next Door is an unjustly forgotten melodrama, returning to UK screens for the first time since the days of VHS.4K restoration from the original negativeOriginal mono audioAudio commentary with actor Rutanya Alda and film historian Lee Gambin (2021)Vic Pratt on David Greene (2021): appreciation of the British filmmaker's eclectic careerOriginal theatrical trailerImage gallery: promotional and publicity materialNew and improved English subtitles for the deaf and hard-of-hearingLimited edition exclusive booklet with a new essay by Peter Tonguette, an overview of the reception of the controversial television play on which the film is based, an archival interview with star Eli Wallach, a look at the film's soundtrack album, an overview of contemporary critical responses, and full film creditsUK Blu-ray premiere Limited edition of 3,000 copiesExtras subject to change
