There’s film, and there’s film by Peter Greenaway.
I’ve been a fan of this extraordinary film maker from the first time I saw The
Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover. So I was sligthly surprised when I found
a new film directed by the master that I didn’t know about. The Baby of Mâcon
is far from new, but not one of his most well known films. Released in 1993, it
stired some controversy and was refused distribution in the USA. That pretty
much sealed its fate as an underground classic.
