CQ

Angela Lindvall, Billy Zane, Dean Stockwell, Franka Potente, Gérard Depardieu

Paris, 1969. The filming of a sci-fi movie set in the distant year 2000 is in trouble. The director's obsession with the actress who plays the sexy secret agent Dragonfly has clouded his judgment and ...( read more  read more... )the film has no ending. A young American, in Paris, to document his life on film with total honesty, is brought in to finish the movie with a bang. This proves to be difficult when the line between his fantasy life and reality becomes blurred, and he too finds himself seduced by the charms of Dragonfly.

    A visually stunnig (2002) film that takes place in Italy in 1969, whose plot revolves around the making of a Sci-Fi film meant to take place in the far-off and distant future of the year 2000.

    It is also a look at the inner workings of the film industry and the struggle of one...( read more) editor turned director, to create a career making film while not allowing his obsession with that films star (Dragonfly) ruin his relationship with his (Real Life) girlfriend who also happens to be the star of HIS own side project which is based on his personal life.

    While the story is a bit convoluted at times...there is enough here (especially visually) to keep fans of film interested (especially fans of Sci-Fi and/or Italian cinema).

    And (call me crazy) but I would REALLY like to see the finished Sci-Fi film: "Codename Dragonfly" (think Barbarella meets Austin Powers) in it's entirety. Perhaps as an 'extra' on the DVD?

    A bit too surreal for even me. I just didn't get it and thought it was boring. However, I would see it again for a second chance.

    Promising and fun to watch, but there's nothing to hold it together.

    Terrific little film (that's hardly been seen) about relationships and the Italian film industry of the 60s. Director Roman Coppola beautifully captures the era and his sequences featuring a sci-fi flick a la BARBARELLA are spot on. Some beautiful performances, a score that nai...( read more)ls the film music of the period, and terrific production design make this a film to seek out.

    **There's a movie called DAVID HOLZMAN'S DIARY (1967) starring L.M. Kit Carson as Holzman. That film influenced the plot of CQ - particularly the young director filming his every day life - and Carson makes an appearance in CQ.
