Henry and June

A True Adventure More Erotic Than Any Fantasy. "The most important film of the year." - James Verniere, Boston Herald "An erotic masterpiece." - Stephen Farber, Movieline Magazine "**** An exceptional work...the year's best film." - Michael Sragow, San Francisco Examiner "A wonderful film." - Terrence Rafferty, The New Yorker Phillip Kaufman's brilliant film explores the erotic life of two individuals who became 20th Century literary giants. Upon meeting uncoventional American author Henry Miller (Fred Ward) in Paris, 1931, a young writer named Anais Nin (Maria de Medeiros) boldly embarks on a passionate voyage of self-discovery, and faithfully records every experience in her diary. In their defiant search for new truths, Anais and Henry are tantalized by Henry's enigmatic and hauntingly sensual wife, June (Uma Thurman). Beautifully photographed, Henry and June is an unforgettable journey into uncharted territory of human relationships, based on the long-surpressed sections of Anais Nin's diaries. Philip Wuntch, Dallas Morning News calls the film "brilliant and intoxicating. It is a film to see more than once and remember for a very long time". © Universal City Studios, Inc.
