NOMINATED FOR FOUR ACADEMY AWARDS, INCLUDING BEST PICTURE AND BEST ACTOR

Bob Rafelson's seminal portrait of a disaffected America was originally released in 1970 to huge critical acclaim. The New York Film critics named it Best Picture of the Year, Rafelson as Best Director and Karen Black as Best Supporting Actress.

"A striking movie... eloquent, important, written and improvised in a clear-hearted American idiom" - Pauline Kael



As Robert Dupea ("One of the most unforgettable characters in American movies." - Ebert), Jack Nicholson delivers a career-defining performance, embodying the tortured disillusionment with his suffocating family, his neglected talent as a piano prodigy, and his aimless life on the road working oil rigs. With his father terminally ill, he embarks on a trip back home but reconciliation eludes him.
Tammy Wynette provided five songs for the film's soundtrack, including her hit "Stand by Your Man." Alongside Nicholson, the film boasts powerful performances by Karen Black, Susan Anspach, Ralph Waite and Sally Struthers.
Newly restored by Sony Pictures, FIVE EASY PIECES remains every bit as relevant and remarkable as it was 40 years ago.
ABOUT THE RESTORATION
For this new restoration, Sony Pictures began with a 4K scan of the original 35mm camera negative and the 35mm Separation Masters. Following an extensive digital restoration to repair torn frames, scratches and the removal of all dirt from the image, the restored files were recorded back to a new 35mm color negative, from which new 35mm prints have been struck.
