Yesterday, the full lineup for the upcoming Tribeca Film Festival was announced. One of the films scheduled to make its world premiere is the very unique documentary/narrative/hard-to-categorize “Framing John DeLorean.”
The takes a meta approach to tell the story of the infamous car manufacturer John DeLorean. With the use of archival footage, documentary interviews, and some of the highest caliber re-enactments ever in a film, “Framing John DeLorean” attempts to use every possible angle to tell the shocking true story of one of the biggest business personalities of the 1980s. And judging by the trailer, the filmmakers responsible for the project have taken a truly interesting angle at the source material.
The film stars Alec Baldwin, Morena Baccarin, Josh Charles, and Dean Winters. “Framing John DeLorean” is directed by Don Argott and Sheena M. Joyce.
“Framing John Delorean” will premiere at the upcoming Tribeca Film Festival before hitting select theaters on June 7.
Here’s the synopsis:
Money, power, politics, drugs, scandal, and fast cars. The incredible story of John DeLorean is the stuff of a Hollywood screenwriter’s dreams. But who was the real John DeLorean? To some, he was a renegade visionary who revolutionized the automobile industry. To others, he was the ultimate con man. For the first time, FRAMING JOHN DELOREAN recounts the extraordinary life and legend of the controversial automaker, tracing his meteoric rise through the ranks of General Motors, his obsessive quest to build a sports car that would conquer the world, and his shocking fall from grace on charges of cocaine trafficking. Interweaving a treasure trove of archival footage with dramatic vignettes starring Alec Baldwin as DeLorean, directors Sheena M. Joyce and Don Argott (The Art of the Steal) show a gripping look at a man who gambled everything in his pursuit of the American Dream.
