The 1970 drama Quiet Days in Clichy directed by Jens Jørgen Thorsen is based on the novel by Henry Miller.

Joey is a struggling writer with no money. His roommate Carl is a charming stud with a taste for young girls. Together, these two insatiable dreamers will laugh, love and screw their way through a decadent Paris paved with wanton women, wild orgies and outrageous erotic adventures.

Featuring a soundtrack by rock legend Country Joe McDonald, Quiet Days in Clichy is regarded as one of the more daring film adaptations of one of the most American controversial authors in history.

In May of 1970, the United States Government seized the only English-language prints of Quiet Days in Clichy on charges of obscenity. And while it was ultimately cleared in Federal Court, the film mysteriously disappeared shortly after its release. Now more than 50 years later, this landmark ‘adults only’ classic can be seen in a brand-new restoration, scanned in 4K 16-bit from its recently discovered uncut & uncensored original fine-grain negative, with Dolby Vision HDR and DTS-HD Master Audio!
