The Storms of Jeremy Thomas

For decades, legendary film producer Jeremy Thomas has driven from England to the Cannes Film Festival. This time, he’s joined by acclaimed filmmaker Mark Cousins. On their intimate five-day road trip through rural France, they remember some of the most acclaimed and controversial films ever made: THE LAST EMPEROR, which won nine Oscars, including a Best Picture award for Thomas when he was still in his thirties; David Cronenberg’s CRASH and its Cannes scandal; the masterpiece of sexual obsession BAD TIMING. Thomas introduces us to his remarkable world of movie stars—Marlon Brando, Jack Nicholson, David Bowie—and daring international cinema. Illustrated with a dazzling range of film clips and rich insights about creativity and survival, THE STORMS OF JEREMY THOMAS is a passionate ode to movies that get to the heart of life.
