This comprehensive set collects some of French New Wave director Luc Moullet's greatest films, including: THE SMUGGLERS (1967), an imaginative and low-budget slapstick about a pair of criminals; A GIRL IS A GUN (1971), a wild and very French take on the Western starring Truffaut muse Jean-Pierre Laud as a Billy the Kid-like outlaw; BRIGITTE AND BRIGITTE (1966), in which two identically-named women move to Paris to study film (allowing for cameos by legendary directors Sam Fuller, Claude Chabrol, and Eric Rohmer); UP AND DOWN (1992), an absurdist look at a group of cyclists racing through the French Alps; ANATOMY OF A RELATIONSHIP (1975), a playful examination of Moullet's marriage and nonfunctional sex life; and GENESIS OF A MEAL (1978) which follows the journey--from creation to consumption--of four essential parts of this unique director's diet: a banana, an omelet, a can of tuna, and a reel of 35mm film.

4-DVD set. Includes the bonus film The Sieges of Alcazar (1989, 54 mins.), a self-reflexive comedy that evokes nostalgia for the golden days of cinephilia, as well as The Man of the Badlands (2001, 54 mins.), Gerard Courant's larger-than-life documentary on Moullet and his works.
