> The newly restored PUSHER TRILOGY will open in 4K at the IFC Center on 5/8 for a one week run. From there, it will be playing in select theaters across the country and Canada.
> Writer and director Nicolas Winding Refn made his 1996 feature film debut with PUSHER. This violent, edgy, yet moving cult classic established Refn as an uncompromising filmmaker of great talent and depth. The trilogy stands as a masterful reinvention of international crime cinema, as poignantly human as it is brutally and viscerally realized. PUSHER TRILOGY reveals the humanity in even the most violent criminals and how every pusher – no matter what his status – is only one bad deal away from total ruin. The trilogy includes Pusher, Pusher II: With Blood on my Hands and Pusher III: I’m the Angel of Death.
> The trilogy stars Mads Mikkelsen (Riders of Justice, “Hannibal”), Kim Bodnia (F1: The Movie), Zlatko Buric (Superman), Slavko Labovic (“Son’s Will”), Peter Andersson (The Caretaker) and Anja Bajicic (The Final Act).
These movies are so good. I went in totally blind. I saw these before Drive came out, so I wasn’t familiar with NWR.
These movies have one of my favorite character arcs of all time.
bought the 4k box set recently. really solid trilogy.
That poster makes the dude look like Mike from RLM
This trilogy is really underrated imo. Nice to see it get some well deserved love.
