Brand New & Factory Sealed. Region 2 PAL (UK & Europe). IMPORTANT: This is the official Czech release. The front cover is exactly as pictured and the back cover has Czech text. The film itself has optional Czech sound & subtitles on/off. ORIGINAL ENGLISH SOUNDTRACK - GUARANTEED > > > > > Anchored by terrific performances from Sigourney Weaver and Alan Rickman, "Snow Cake" is a challenging, mature drama that deserves to be seen... Weaver plays Linda Freeman, an active, autistic woman, and her path crosses with Rickman's Alex Hughes. Hughes is the survivor of a car accident that's killed Freeman's daughter, and he's still heavily traumatised as he seeks out Freeman to deliver the news. Yet from this melancholy premise, "Snow Cake" builds into an affirming, delicate drama of real merit. It's in the small touches that it scores, ironically hitting its weakest moments when it tries to implement one or two ideas that don't quite gel. But these are minor quibbles in an otherwise fine piece of cinema. Clearly, it's Rickman and Weaver's film, but credit too should go to the able supporting cast, led by The Matrix's Carrie-Ann Moss, along with Emily Hampshire and David Fox. If you like your films simple and easy, then perhaps "Snow Cake" isn't going to be your movie of choice. But if you're willing to try something that's restrained, challenging and in many ways surprising, then "Snow Cake" comes warmly commended. --Jon Foster
