April 15 (UPI) -- The Criterion Collection announced its July additions Wednesday. The 1992 Oscar winner The Crying Game joins the collection along with Hud, Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore and more.
The Crying Game was a sensation after its 1992 release with a twist that was satirized in comedies like Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and The Naked Gun 33⅓. Stephen Rea plays an IRA operative who falls for the girlfriend (Jaye Davidson) of his late hostage (Forest Whitaker).
It won the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay and was nominated for Best Picture, Best Director, and Rea and Davidson's performances. Writer/director Neil Jordan approved the 4K restoration, available July 14.
Jordan and Rea gave new interviews, and the release includes Jordan's audio commentary, alternate ending, a 2005 documentary and essays.
Hud and Alice also arrive July 14. Martin Scorsese supervised the 4K restoration of Alice, which stars Ellen Burstyn as a widowed mother that inspired the sitcom Alice.
