UK TRAILER & RELEASE DATE REVEALED
FRAMING JOHN DELOREAN

“An absorbing documentary, with Alec Baldwin popping up in dramatic re-enactments, adds new insight to the inspiring and scandalous saga of John DeLorean, the auto magnate who got too high on his dream.” – VARIETY

“The film is hugely impressive. DeLorean is a persuasive advocate of his own greatness, the hero of his own narrative” – SCREEN INTERNATIONAL

AVAILABLE ON DIGITAL DOWNLOAD 29 JULY 2019
WATCH THE UK TRAILER HERE: https://youtu.be/UYtIokKYqbY

Starring ALEC BALDWIN, MORENA BACCARIN and JOSH CHARLES
With contributions from former colleagues, employees, lawyers, friends and family

Directed by: DON ARGOTT & SHEENA M. JOYCE (The Art of The Steal, Batman & Bill)
Produced by: TAMIR ARDON (XYZ Films, 9.14 Pictures)

The fascinating documentary-drama is the first ever re-enactment of the meteoric rise and fall of high-flying automotive executive, John DeLorean. Unlike a regular feature documentary, FRAMING JOHN DELOREAN is a unique documentary/feature hybrid, including traditional talking heads and archival footage woven in with reconstructed scenes of key moments in John DeLorean’s life, played by Alec Baldwin (The Cooler, The Departed, Mission: Impossible - Fallout).

Also starring Morena Baccarin (Deadpool, Homeland, The Mentalist) and Josh Charles (Dead Poet’s Society, S.W.A.T, Four Brothers), the film includes feature interviews with a wide range of individuals who knew DeLorean, including former colleagues, employees, lawyers, friends and two of DeLorean’s children, Zach and Kathryn.

Genius. Failure. Saviour. Liar. A story so shocking it reads like the plot of a Hollywood movie. John DeLorean was a maverick who defied the industry to create the DeLorean Motor Company, and bring to life his vision of a futuristic car, which was plagued with disaster from the start. In an effort to keep his business and jet setting lifestyle afloat, he became embroiled in an FBI sting operation and appeared to be caught red handed, exchanging millions for the transportation of cocaine. This is the true story of greed and endless ambition behind the car that would become one of the biggest cult item of the 1980s.

FRAMING JOHN DELOREAN IS AVAILABLE ON DIGITAL DOWNLOAD IN THE UK FROM 29TH JULY 2019

I asked about whether they would be showing this at our local Curzon (independent) cinema in Colchester, but at the time they didn't have a release date, but didn't rule out showing it.

I thought it would be nice to get a few DeLoreans parked outside the cinema, then again it's probably the kind of film/documentary which is a bit wasted on the big screen and just as enjoyable at home.

It's been released on Apple iTunes and Netflix in the states apparently, but not yet here in the UK.

It's not on Netflix here (yet)

I was able to rent it on my cable TV Video On Demand system for about $8.

It's very good, but I think it will have a niche audience, so I'm not expecting it to be widely released in cinemas, but it is coming to DVD. Well worth the price of a DVD, plus a DVD player if you have thrown your old one out ;)

It focuses less on the factory than perhaps I was expecting/hoping and more on the drugs bust (and reasons behind it) and GPD, and how that affected the family. Hence the film title. Zach DeLorean and Bill Collins are particularly poignant and Tamir is an engaging story-teller
