The film plays fine despite the other review. The best I have seen on a transfer from anything I have seen from anyone that has released Peter Greenaway. Here is hoping that Belly of an Architect is also region free. The special features won't play but whatever, I really just wanted the film anyways. Rock n roll forever.

It's one of the BEST movies ever, but this Blu-Ray is made for UK & Netherlands. Beware which format you purchase. This shouldn't be for sale here in the Americas. I have an expensive coaster.
