Peter Greenaway

[colinr0380]

The project formerly known as Lucca Mortis has begun filming

An article on Lucca Mortis in today's Guardian, saying that apparently production wrapped at the end of 2024 but is in a dispute as the Producers decided to make a 'more commercial' cut of the film. Apparently there are two versions of the film - Greenaway's and the Producers' - stuck in post-production at the moment.

And it is apparently going to be set in the 9/11 era and being re-titled as "Tower Stories", to not associate the Italian town of Lucca with the concept of death.

So that makes two Greenaway movies in the can but "stuck in post-production hell."

I stopped paying attention to his output since 8 1/2 Women which I hated so much I walked out of. Still enjoy his early films though. Any standout from his 21st century output if I feel ready to give him another go?

Rembrandt’s J’Accuse is wonderful, and better than the already very good Nightwatching. It feels a bit like his F for Fake; a very playful essay film

Tulse Luper is hard to truly judge, as it’s never been completed, and you need to contextualization it with some of the books he’s written.

I can’t think of any living filmmaker who has published so many books of his unproduced scripts. The OK Doll and Joseph really should get made
