May 10, 201016 yr I just found this... hope it hasn't been posted before? First - the trailer: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGbmBZYDDI0]YouTube- Shadow Play: The Making of Anton Corbijn Trailer[/ame] Shadow Play Status: Completed Genre: Documentary Starring: Anton Corbijn, Bono, Michael Stipe, Brandon Flowers Director John Whiteman Screenwriter: Josh Whiteman Producer: Jason Byrne, Anton Corbijn Executive Producers: James Hoppe, John Finemore, Dom Allen, Joel Betts Sale Agent: Icon Films Link: Click here Premise Imagine you're standing at the crossroads. Look left and you see the triumphant career of one of the most important visual artists of our time - a portrait photographer without compare. Now look right, into the future, and watch as this artist tackles a new dream - the almost impossible task of making a first-rate Hollywood film. It's as if Vermeer decided to put down the brush one day and pick up a camera. Can the dream become reality? A subject worthy of worldwide attention, Shadow Play tells the story of the ultimate insider who now finds himself outside the Hollywood system and far enough away from the dizzying orbits of fame to make things a little uncomfortable... and very interesting. http://www.makerfilms.com/prod_shadow.html Chart Attack Review: Shadow Play: The Making Of Anton Corbijn Has Lots of Bono Highpoint Media Group Sarah Kurchak (CHARTattack) 05/10/2010 12:41pm Shadow Play In Three Minutes Bono: HI, I'M BONO AND I'M GOING TO SAY SOMETHING CHEEKY ABOUT ANTON CORBIJN AND PHOTOGRAPHY AND YOU WILL ALL THINK I'M SO CLEVER BECAUSE I AM. Michael Stipe, Dave Gahan, Kurt Cobain: We will now provide you with insight into this legendary photographer's career and life and intelligently discuss our collaborations with him. Anton Corbijn: I will say some intriguing things and discuss superficial details about my life and art, but I will be too private to give you any sort of deep glimpse into my life, making this film about me not quite as satisfying or complex as it could be. Narrative Screen Titles: So, um, I know it's awkward and all, but we're going to try to turn this into a documentary about Corbijn making his first feature film, Shadow Play, even though it's kind of shoehorned in there and a straightforward profile would probably make more sense. Chris Martin: I am here to give you a look at Corbijn's relationship with the current generation of musicians. You might be surprised at how self-aware and humble I seem! Anton Corbijn: More interesting but ultimately elusive stuff. Narrative Screen Titles: He's making a movie, remember? It's about Joy Division! They were integral to his early career! Bono: I'm still Bono and I am still so clever. I will now discuss Anton in a way that makes it seem like I am praising his work, but really I am just slyly discussing my own brilliance because I am that clever. Here's is some footage of me holding photos that Anton took of me. This is the best cinematic moment ever! Narrative Screen Titles: Movie! http://www.chartattack.com/reviews/82121/shadow-play-the-making-of-anton-corbijn I can't find any dates when it'll come out and the first site I linked to said it was shown on film festivals in 2009 already. Is this old news?? That Chart Attack Review and the trailer are recent... :thinking: EDIT: I just found this: http://www.hotdocs.ca/film/title/shadow_play_the_making_of_anton_corbijn It's been shown on Canadian festival "Hot Docs"
