Ang Lee’s critically acclaimed award winner THE ICE STORM - starring Kevin Kline, Joan Allen and Sigourney Weaver - makes its UK Blu-ray and Digital premiere on November 24.

Ang Lee’s masterful film - based on the bestselling novel by Rick Moody - charts the fallout of the sexual revolution in the stifled heart of Nixon-era suburbia. The all-star cast includes Kevin Kline (A Fish Called Wanda, The Big Chill), Joan Allen (The Bourne Supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum), Sigourney Weaver (who won the 1998 BAFTA for Supporting Actress for her role), Tobey Maguire (Spider-Man, The Great Gatsby), Christina Ricci (Yellowjackets, Wednesday), Elijah Wood (The Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Monkey) and Katie Holmes (The Gift, Logan Lucky). The film won the Best Screenplay award at Cannes for James Schamus (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon), and was nominated for the Palme d’Or.

Rolling Stone said that THE ICE STORM confirms the Brokeback Mountain director Lee “as a director of the first rank”, while Empire magazine declared “the dazzling ensemble perfectly captures every nuance in one of the finest acting showcases you could hope for”. Powerful, provocative and intensely moving, with a sweeping score by Mychael Danna (Oscar winner for his music for Lee’s Life of Pi), Lee’s beautifully made film is a masterclass in literate adult drama that resonates long after viewing. Don't get left out in the cold - watch the blu-ray debut this November.

SYNOPSIS: As a dangerous ice storm descends on 1973 Connecticut, out in the suburbs two neighbouring, dysfunctional, affluent families seek escapism through substance abuse, adultery, and sexual experimentation.

THE ICE STORM is available to buy on Blu-ray and Digital from 24th November 2025 and available to pre-order.
