Here’s the U.S. trailer of Eisenstein in Guanajuato, the upcoming romantic comedy biography movie written and directed by Peter Greenaway and starring Elmer Back, Luis Alberti, and Maya Zapata:
EISENSTEIN IN GUANAJUATO
“In 1931, at the height of his artistic powers, Soviet filmmaker Sergei Eisenstein travels to Mexico to shoot a new film to be titled Que Viva Mexico. Freshly rejected by Hollywood and under increasing pressure to return to Stalinist Russia, Eisenstein arrives at the city of Guanajuato. Chaperoned by his guide Palomino Canedo, he vulnerably experiences the ties between Eros and Thanatos, sex and death, happy to create their effects in cinema, troubled to suffer them in life. Peter Greenaway’s film explores the mind of a creative genius facing the desires and fears of love, sex and death through ten passionate days that helped shape the rest of the career of one of the greatest masters of cinema.”
Looks like Guanajuato is a beautiful city, have never been but if I ever go to Mexico I’ll check this city for sure!
Anyway, there’s also a new poster, take a look below:
The film will be released on February 5, 2016.
