Cinématographe - We're No Angels Blu-Ray w/ Slipcase

Jim (Sean Penn, Carlito’s Way) and Ned (Robert De Niro, The Untouchables), two ambling convicts imprisoned in Upstate New York during the Great Depression, are forced to escape prison when fellow inmate Bobby (James Russo, Dangerous Game) pulls a gun during his electric chair execution, turning them into unwitting accomplices. With a taste of freedom, Jim and Ned end up in a small town near the Canadian border, mistaken for priests in the local monastery. With the law hindering an easy passage into Canada, the two hunker down in their newfound home, befriending the people of the town and finding faith in the process. 

A remake of the 1955 Michael Curtiz film of the same name, We’re No Angels is a deft marriage of comedy and drama from celebrated Irish filmmaker Neil Jordan (Mona Lisa, The Crying Game), based on a script from noted playwright David Mamet (The Untouchables, House of Games). Featuring a staggering ensemble cast including Oscar nominees Demi Moore (A Few Good Men) and John C. Reilly (Chicago) with Wallace Shawn (My Dinner with Andre) and Bruno Kirby (The Godfather Part II), WE’RE NO ANGELS is a seldom overlooked entry in Neil Jordan’s career. Cinématographe is proud to bring Jordan’s epic crime comedy to blu-ray for the first time in the world with a new 4K restoration approved by the filmmaker.
