American Gigolo 4K Ultra HD presents Paul Schrader’s stylish, morally charged neo-noir in a striking new restoration that captures the cool alienation of late-1970s Los Angeles. Richard Gere delivers a career-defining performance as Julian Kay, a high-end male escort navigating a world of wealth, power, and transactional intimacy, where desire is currency and identity is carefully constructed. When one of his clients is found murdered, Julian becomes the prime suspect, forcing him into a desperate search for the truth behind a carefully engineered frame-up.
 
Equal parts erotic thriller and existential character study, American Gigolo is as much about surfaces as it is about emptiness beneath them. John Bailey’s sleek cinematography, Giorgio Armani’s iconic costuming, and Giorgio Moroder’s hypnotic electronic score—featuring Blondie’s Grammy-nominated “Call Me”—combine to define the look and sound of an era. This Arrow Video limited edition restores the film in 4K Ultra HD and surrounds it with an expansive suite of interviews and archival material exploring its cultural impact, performances, and lasting legacy.
