Described by critic Mark Kermode as an "extraordinary filmmaker" and "one of the UK's most imaginative talents", visionary British director Philip Ridley followed his sensational debut The Reflecting Skin with another surreal incursion into the dark heart of the 'American dream' in The Passion of Darkly Noon. Darkly Noon (Brendan Fraser) is the sole survivor of a military-style attack on an isolated religious community. Stumbling through a forest in a daze, he is rescued by the free-spirited and enigmatic Callie (Ashley Judd). Darkly finds himself feeling strange new desires for Callie as she nurses him back to health. only to watch her jump into the arms of her returning mute lover Clay (Viggo Mortensen). Lost in the woods with only his fundamentalist upbringing to make sense of his unrequited passions, Darkly soon descends into an explosive and lethal rage. Now available for the first time worldwide on Blu-ray™, Ridley's talent for spellbinding, hallucinogenic dream imagery is on full display in a glittering new transfer of his most formally inventive and electrifying film. The mesmerising soundtrack includes two songs co-written by Ridley for the film, "Look What You've Done (To My Skin)" performed by Gavin Friday and "Who Will Love Me Now?" performed by PJ Harvey. Bonus Materials.

  • Philip Ridley and Memory
    Philip Ridley and Memory Andrew Wyllie Keywords Philip Ridley; Memory; Physicality/Aurality; Nostalgia; Sexuality; British Theatre Abstract Philip Ridley’s nine plays written for an adult audience all share a concern with the role of memory and of remembering. Attempts to recuperate an authentic past by challenging an accepted, acceptable but inaccurate mythology of the past recur in the plays from The Pitchfork Disney through to Shivered. Failure to preserve the past is critiqued in some of the plays, while struggles to come to terms with the past are celebrated in others. In all the plays, the necessity of struggling to tell a story that serves to reconcile the present person with his or her past is celebrated; and the profound experience of tragic catharsis is often the object of that struggle, whether the outcome is achieved or not. In Vincent River, Mercury Fur and Leaves of Glass, the function of memory is presented in strongly contrasting ways that generate both an account of the necessity for personal and cultural memory to be retained and a critique of comforting untruths. The contrasting approaches to memory are underpinned by differing dramaturgical approaches in which either the vocal or the physical is privileged. Philip Ridley’s plays are united by a concern with memory to an extent that places the function of remembering at the centre of his output. From The Pitchfork Disney (1991) to Shivered (2012), all of his nine plays written for an adult audience deal in various ways with the role of memory in achieving or losing an adult identity.

Similarly, in the first StorytellerSparkleshark play (1997), Jake, a fourteen-year-old geek in glasses, is faced with a macho bully named Russell and an angry, oversized misfit called Finn.
