John Turturro (Do the Right Thing), Ellen Barkin (Sea of Love) and Katherine Borowitz (Internal Affairs) star in this award-winning story of a volatile Italian-American family growing up in the 1950s. As writer, director and star, Turturro brings his trademark humor and intensity to this richly rewarding tribute.
Mac is the story of three brothers who struggle against all odds to scrape together enough money to start their own business in Queens, New York. Turturro the director, expertly creates their quirky and humorous world, bound by raucous loyalty and torn by sibling rivalry. And Turturro the actor delivers his best performances yet as Mac, the ambitious, overbearing, irresistible oldest brother. Winner of the Camera d'Or at Cannes for best first-time director, MAC is "intensely romantic, wonderfully vivid...a very good movie!" (Vincent Canby, The New York Times)
WARNING: DVD releases from Columbia TriStar Home Video have recently been known to contain an additional embedded code known as Regional Code Enhancement (RCE). In some cases this code may allow the disc to detect if a DVD Player is region specific, or if it has been manufactured or altered in the market to be “region-free” or “multi-region”. If the player is “region-free” or “multi-region” the RCE may not allow the disc to play the program material. It will instead display a message advising that the machine is not authorized to play the disc. The actual wording will be as follows:
THIS DISC IS INTENDED FOR PLAY ON NON-MODIFIED REGION 1 PLAYERS. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS REGION 1 DISC. TO ASSURE PLAYBACK YOU SHOULD PURCHASE OR RENT A DISC DESIGNED FOR YOUR REGION.
Due to the implementation of this system, we are unable to determine whether a disc is RCE encoded prior to its release, and the studios are not forthcoming with this information. Therefore this warning only suggests that the title concerned may be RCE encoded, based on recent releases from Columbia TriStar Home Video. Please note however that we are only able to accept returns on genuinely faulty discs, and not those ordered despite this warning. Non-faulty discs will be returned, incurring postage & packing charges. If in doubt, do NOT order this title!
We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this situation which is beyond our control.
