WIN! Luc Besson classics on Blu-ray

To celebrate the Blu-ray release of Luc Besson cinema classics, available to buy now, we’ve got 5 sets of his greatest films to giveaway. This cool prize includes Atlantis, The Big Blue, Léon, The Last Battle, Nikita, Subway, and Angel-A.

Born in Paris in 1959, Luc Besson made his feature length debut as a writer, producer and director with The Last Battle in 1983. The film heralded the arrival of a new visionary in French cinema and marked the beginning of long collaborations with actor Jean Reno and composer Eric Serra, amongst others. Themes of alienation and unlikely pairings came to characterize many of Besson’s films, including Subway, Léon and Angel-A, while his passion for the beauty and mysteries of aquatic life inspired the story of The Big Blue and later documentary Atlantis. His work as a true cinema aesthete led the new French movement “cinema du look” – highly stylized and slick visuals almost mesmeric in their intensity and power.

Available for the first time on blu-ray, the format really does justice for the first time to Besson’s unique, striking visual style.
