Film about Terry Gilliam
subtitles: Polish and English
CastJeff Bridges, Terry Gilliam, Tony Grisoni, Johnny Depp, Jean Rochefort, Philip A. Patterson, René Cleitman, Nicola Pecorini, José Luis Escolar, Bárbara Pérez-Solero, Benjamín Fernández, Andrea Calderwood, Gabriella Pescucci Film descriptionA documentary intended as a behind-the-scenes report from the making of The Man Who Killed Don Quixote, which of Terry Gilliam impeccably planned for a decade. Lost in La Mancha shows glamorous scenes, meticulous sets, amazing scenery, costumes, rehearsals, horse training – and an equally spectacular series of complications, including fighter jets taking off nearby, a storm wreaking havoc on sets and equipment, the lead’s health issues and a battle with the insurer. This moving, amusing and shocking documentary is Hollywood stripped of its glamour, showing a director and film crew hard at work on a fascinating but also arduous and frustrating project. Does the visionary artist submit to reality or continue tilting at windmills much like his protagonist? |
