"Roy's World: Barry Gifford's Chicago" official trailer #1 | WILLEM DAFOE, MATT DILLON, LILI TAYLOR

Описание: Narrated by Willem Dafoe, Matt Dillon, and Lili Taylor. Hailed as "William Faulkner by way of B-movie film noir, porn paperbacks and Sun Records rockabilly," poet, author, and screenwriter Barry Gifford has given the world more than forty works, including the Sailor and Lula novels that inspired David Lynch’s "Wild At Heart." This documentary brilliantly brings to life Gifford’s autobiographical collection "Roy's World," capturing a vanished 1950s Chicago through a jazzy, impressionistic combination of beguiling archive footage, animation and spoken word.
