Sallis Benney Theatre
Film historian and broadcaster Ian Christie explores some of the films that Michael Powell, David Lean and Terry Gilliam, among others, didn’t manage to make, and asks how these might have changed our image of these directors. All film-makers sufferfrom cherished projects failing to get made, after many months or years have been spent preparing them. Would they have been masterpieces – or were some perhaps better not made? And how much can we know about them? Ian Christie has published many books on Michael Powell, Gilliam on Gilliam and, most recently, The Art of Film: John Box and Production Design.
