With Robert Altman’s classic That Cold Day in the Park now set for a re-release as part of Eureka’s Masters of Cinema series, we’ve managed to get hold of three copies of the film to give away.

The 1969 psychological thriller has been given a new high-definition transfer, with a whole host of extras included as part of the Dual Format release. To be in with a chance of winning yourself a copy of this all-time classic, simply answer the below question:

Director Robert Altman memorably made his mark with which 1970 movie, which itself spawned a hugely successful TV series?

a) M*A*S*H

b) S*P*U*D*S

c) S*Q*U*A*S*H*

Send your answer, along with your address details, to [email protected] labelled That Cold Day in the Park before midnight on Sunday, June 26th.

If you’ve not seen this 1969 classic, be sure to check out the below clip for an idea of what to expect:

 

The official word on this new release reads:

Frances Austen, a young, wealthy spinster, invites a mute teenager into her apartment after finding him freezing in the park next to where she lives. Despite her best efforts, their lack of communication only increases her sense of loneliness, as her possessiveness spirals into frightening new realms.

A remarkable central performance by Sandy Dennis anchors this fascinating, haunting tale, anticipating Altman’s subsequent studies of female psychological breakdown, Images and 3 Women. Shot by László Kovács (Easy Rider, Five Easy Pieces) with Altman’s trademark long lenses and drifting zooms, as well as intriguing experimentation with sound, That Cold Day in the Park is a long-neglected gem from an American master.   The Masters of Cinema Series is proud to present its UK home video premiere in a new Dual-Format edition.

That Cold Day in the Park (Masters of Cinema) Dual Format edition is released on 20 June 2016 and is available to purchase here.
