Author Topic: Gone With the Pope Todd McCracken Master Film Handler Posts: 263 From: Northridge, CA, USA Registered: Mar 2008 posted 03-04-2010 12:05 PM                    LOS ANGELES - Grindhouse Releasing and the American Cinematheque will present the late, great Duke Mitchell's never-before-seen exploitation masterpiece GONE WITH THE POPE on Friday, March 12 at 7:30 p.m., at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood. http://gonewiththepope.com/ Seems this film was "lost" for a time after the star/director/producer died without completing the film in 1981 It seems it has been brought back to life "Sage Stallone and Bob Murawski of Grindhouse Releasing rediscovered GONE WITH THE POPE in 1995 and vowed to save it from obscurity. Academy Award-nominated film editor Murawski (THE HURT LOCKER, SPIDER-MAN 1,2 & 3) spent 15 years completing GONE WITH THE POPE from the surviving film elements." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQqZKd_72C0 Great trailer, though NSFW  |  IP: Logged Michael Barry Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 584 From: Sydney, NSW, Australia Registered: Nov 1999 posted 03-05-2010 01:40 AM                     That looks awesome! If I was in LA next week, I'd be there with bells on...  |  IP: Logged Frank Angel Film God Posts: 5305 From: Brooklyn NY USA Registered: Dec 1999 posted 03-05-2010 10:41 AM                        Hmmm, that must be have been really lost -- it's not listed on IMDB.  |  IP: Logged
