Synopsis
One of the sixties’ great international art-house sensations, Woman in the Dunes was for many the grand unveiling of the surreal, idiosyncratic worldview of Hiroshi Teshigahara. Eija Okada plays an amateur entomologist who has left Tokyo to study an unclassified species of beetle that resides in a remote, vast desert; when he misses his bus back to civilization, he is persuaded to spend the night in the home of a young widow (Kiyoko Kishida) who lives in a hut at the bottom of a sand dune. What results is one of cinema’s most bristling, unnerving, and palpably erotic battles of the sexes, as well as a nightmarish depiction of everyday Sisyphean struggle, for which Teshigahara received an Academy Award nomination for best director.

Great movie
thanks a lot!!
You're welcome, next one is probably 8 1/2.
Thank you Karl!!
Paltegott, you're welcome. However, for the moment i won't be uploading any new torrents. There seems to be a problem with my Windows 7 with regards to torrent clients which is making my upload speeds dismal (not to mention i can't download at all). I'm sure the issue will be resolved somehow and i'll make up for it at a further date. The decrease in upload speed is probably making the torrents slower and i've noticed i've hardly uploaded anything lately on my first two torrents, but i can assure everyone i have no plans to discontinue the seeding.

Someone uploaded the whole box set from which my upload stems, i recommend it to all.
big thanx!
I'm a Mac user and I downloaded this torrent thinking it would play the TS file fine. BUT, I use the VIDEO TS file as my "Open File" in VLC, and all I get is the movie menu; I can't use it as an interface or anything. What did you guys do?
