Journey Into Light + Lee Marvin: A Personal Portrait by John Boorman
A filmed essay-cum-diary about the pressures and pleasures of filmmaking, and a tribute to the star of Point Blank.
Journey Into Light (BBC 1985. Dir John Boorman. 40 min)
Lee Marvin: A Personal Portrait by John Boorman (BBC 1998. Dir John Boorman. 55 min)
A complement to Boorman’s acclaimed book Money into Light, Journey into Light is a filmed essay-cum-diary about the trials and tribulations, the pressures and pleasures of filmmaking, particularly with reference to his experiences bringing The Emerald Forest to fruition. Lee Marvin... is both a tribute to and an anecdotal reminiscence about the star of Point Blank and Hell in the Pacific who was also Boorman’s friend. Affectionate, funny and illuminating.
