Product Description

Product Description

Based on the novel 'The Alexandria Quartet' by Lawrence Durrell. Arriving in Egypt, Darley (Michael York), a young Irish schoolmaster finds himself in the beautiful city of Alexandria, with massive houses, masked balls, extreme opulence, incredible poverty and adolescent prostitution. The society into which Darley naively enters is dominated by Justine (Anouk Aimée), an enchantingly beautiful Jew. Among Justine's numerous friends and lovers are Pursewarden (Dirk Bogarde), a British official obsessed with his blind sister Liza, Narouz, Justine's fanatic brother-in-law, and Toto, a homosexual. So begins a chain of interlocking relationships at the heart of which lies a treacherous conspiracy.

Review

A vastly entertaining romance set in an East that is as mysterious and lovely as any Hollywood has ever depicted. --New York Times

Aimée is a perfect Justine, but it is Dirk Bogarde who dominates the film. --New York Times

3.0 out of 5 starsDisappointed, but...It' s better than nothing
By HAYLYN. THE ANALOGUE MAN on 24 May 2014
Format: DVD
This film is a favorite of mine and I have endured the television print I recorded many years ago. As were in those days, and I don' t think it appeared many times, if anymore, the CinemaScope print was zoomed into the frame to fit those 4.3 t.v. screens..
I was delighted when it was going to be issued, with trepidation, in the fact that 20th Century Fox is the studio throughout the world that is most unreliable in supplying good and correct ratio prints. Plus, it was not an official issue but hived off to Simply Entertainment. Not their fault, at least it' s now available in the correct ratio, no stereo, (Jerry Goldsmiths score is so beautiful and haunting) and as the other reviews have said, a rough print. If one likes and wants to have it in their collection, fine, I doubt wether it will ever be available unless Fox issues it in the States. Simply Entertainment have issued Destination Gobi (1953), a 4.3 print and it is a pristine fine grained one you ever did see.
I think it is rare a good Widescreen can match a good 4.3 ratio in quality, Widescreen seems more out of focus. As is usual, the artwork on the box is better quality than the product.

1.0 out of 5 starsAvoid !
By K. Probert-briggs on 18 May 2014
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
The print is terrible - OK it's widescreen but has horrible grey lines at top & bottom and the print is so dark and grainy. Although no one would rate this as Dirk Bogarde's finest hour I do think this flawed film deserves far better treatment than this . A major disappointment.

1.0 out of 5 starsTruly appalling dvd.
By Astrid Rhodes on 7 Jun. 2014
Format: DVD
This title, with it's Leon Shamroy photography cries out for a proper dvd release. This issue is certainly not it. It appears to be taken from the same master as the copy which used to air on American cable tv. And there are awful white bars instead of black masking for the scope image. Really disgraceful issue. I give it one star only because, with Amazon comments, you need to allocate at least one star to get your comment posted.

1.0 out of 5 starsJUSTINE 1969
By John S. Hutchinson on 16 May 2015
Format: DVD
The reviews here are mixing two different films with the same title (JUSTINE)
This should be for the 1969 Fox adaptation with Dirk Bogarde and Michael York..nothing to do with de Sade
However it seems that this is unavailable in a decent print. The British one is a poor Scope copy and the recent American Fox Archive release is their usual full frame disaster

2.0 out of 5 starsThe film looked like a great film but it was impossible to
By Alexander J. C. Turner on 13 Aug. 2014
Format: DVD
Not a judgement on the film at all. The film looked like a great film but it was impossible to watch this horrible transfer. Reminded me of how badly some of my own favourite movies have been treated on DVD with prints that looked worse than VHS. I shall have to wait for this to be shown on TV (a virtual impossibility) or a better release. Couldn't watch more than 10 minutes of this transfer.

1.0 out of 5 starsFlaccid, impotent, lacking in guts and balls
By Washington Irving on 6 Mar. 2006
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
In the same way that some people feel the need to warn others from viewing explicit material, I feel it my duty to warn others of the absolute flaccid impotency of this film. Reading the radical feminist Andrea Dworkin’s scathing critique of De Sade is more passionate, more arousing, and more graphic than this lame, confused and essentially frustrating piece.
The degree to which the heroine exhibits wood would put the Marquise (who ‘climaxed’ 6,000 times in three years of imprisonment) to shame. Her acting is naïve and there is no development of the aware masochist in Justine that is the point of the story. In the literature, this works in contrast to her sister Juliette’s discovery of her Sadistic nature. In the film they are both pretty but pathetic, and utterly conventional in motive and act. It says nothing new or dramatic about the deep and controversial issues of the S&M dichotomy.
The male characters far from displaying signs of sadism / masochism, and control freakery, are seemingly intentionally just mildy laughable and strange. In the same fashion that Justine never really convinces one of suffering, the cruelty of her persecutors is never convincingly portrayed.
The wrath of the monks Justine finds herself captive off, and indeed the ‘ordeal’ she undergoes throughout is no worse than a night out in most British cities; laughed at by whores, a mugged in broad daylight, a little chase, a bit of a slap, banged up in a cell for no good reason.
As to mise en scene, there is little nudity, no graphic sex, no lesbian or gay sex, no actual shots of S&M, and the effects are so completely unrealistic as to provoke the breaking of suspension of disbelief that cinema needs in order to convince the viewer.
If you want something depraved, intelligent and transcendent of moral value read the book. If you want to waste money on a film that doesn’t deserve a slot on late night channel five, buy the film.
