In the recent Blu-ray and DVD releases, Nicole Kidman shines in "Babygirl" as Romy Mathis, a CEO struggling with dissatisfaction in her marriage. Directed by Halina Reijn, the film explores themes of desire and control, captivating audiences with its strong box office performance. Meanwhile, Criterion releases a special edition of "Choose Me," an early work by director Alan Rudolph starring Genevieve Bujold and Keith Carradine, complete with new interviews and essays that discuss its impact. Both films are significant additions to their respective catalogs, revealing complex narratives of love and ambition.
Nicole Kidman is spectacular as Romy Mathis, a high-powered CEO who isn’t sexually satisfied by her husband. When a new intern challenges her non-stop control over her life, she discovers that he may be exactly what she wants.
Four decades before Nicole Kidman crawled in "Babygirl," Genevieve Bujold and Keith Carradine starred in the unapologetically sexy "Choose Me," directed by the legendary Alan Rudolph.
The Criterion edition includes an essay by Beatrica Loayza and a new conversation with Alan Rudolph and Keith Carradine, adding depth to the film's retrospective.
Roger was a fan, writing, 'There is hardly a moment in the whole film when I knew for sure what was going to happen next, yet I didn't feel manipulated; I felt as if the movie were giving itself the freedom to be completely spontaneous.'
