The Cook, the Thief, his Wife and her Lover
The Cook, the Thief, his Wife and her Lover
Dir.: Peter Greenaway | 124 minutes

The Cook, the Thief, his Wife and her Lover

UK, France 1989 | 124 minutes | English | Hebrew subtitles

In a large restaurant owned by a laconic cook, the thief and his wife dine regularly. One evening, the wife meets a man who becomes her lover…. A beautifully stylized film, displaying Greenaway’s typical attention to architectural details and cynicism towards the upper classes.
