Sign In. Lost in London I Hide Spoilers. If you have any basic knowledge of film making, acting, lighting, sound engineering and broadcasting, after watching this film you might agree it was an incredible achievement given the limited budget and schedule and all the obstacles and circumstances in which it was put together. When judging all the elements in the film, but particularly acting, it is fair to consider the EXTREME emotional and physical endurance all the actors and crew needed in order to materialize this crazy project, specially Woody who also served as director and, as he later explained during the QA session at the end of the movie, couldn't stop thinking about all the details while the camera was rolling. Remember, this movie was broadcast LIVE in one camera shot with no opportunity for screwing up, with the constant threat of technical glitches in sound microphones and video streaming, bad timing of actors and scenes, falls the cameraman was running up and down staircases and other obstacles and even bad weather, given that in London it can rain at any time and great part of the movie was shot outdoors. If you factor all these elements in, then Woody's performance was Academy Award or Tony?

E ven at its liveliest, cinema can only ever be a refrigerated medium, relaying images to us that were shot months, years even decades earlier. But this week there was an exception to that rule. As if that were not impressive enough, the picture was shot in a single unbroken minute take with a cast of 30 plus hundreds of extras in 14 locations, two black cabs, one police vehicle and a VW camper van festooned with fairy lights. With Lost in London , Harrelson went as far in the opposite direction as one can imagine. This was edge-of-the-seat, seat-of-the-pants film-making. The audience at the Picturehouse Central in Piccadilly Circus had the extra thrill of knowing that what they were watching was happening right outside at that very moment, on streets and sets only minutes from the cinema. That it came off with barely a hitch was a credit to a tightly drilled crew, including the dexterous camera operator, Jon Hembrough, and the cinematographer, Nigel Willoughby. That the finished film was also a larky, freewheeling jab at celebrity culture rather than simply a virtuoso experiment is down to Harrelson, who also wrote the screenplay. The film follows Harrelson in a comic restaging of a night in when he ran amok in London and was arrested on suspicion of causing criminal damage. It begins with Harrelson coming off stage after a poorly received theatre performance and cursing himself for taking on another dramatic role. His fans concur. After a tabloid splash on his infidelities prompts a bust-up with his wife, Laura the excellent Eleanor Matsuura , he takes refuge in a club with his best friend, Owen Wilson. At least he thought they were besties.

It is also quite amazing to have quite a bit of support from the London police as well.

I want my two hours back. Even without the single shot, live elements, the film is written and performed hilariously. Some of the jokes are witty but they are few and far in between. This footage was just dull with lots of extras that can't at and a story about the image woody harison suposses people think he is, a stoner, drinker, womanizer. He also does full-body porn style body scans from foot to head, for no reason. Vanity Fair. The audience at the Picturehouse Central in Piccadilly Circus had the extra thrill of knowing that what they were watching was happening right outside at that very moment, on streets and sets only minutes from the cinema. What a great technical achievement this film was. It's like a randomly patched up work without any direction or rational development. Over the course of the evening his marriage to his wife Eleanor Satsuura breaks down due to an indisctrion which makes its way to the front page of a tabloid, but after an apparent fight with friend Owen Wilson he leaves a nightclub and gets into an altercation with a taxi driver that lands him in jail.

Only Wilson lets slip that his best pal will always be Wes Anderson. Harrelson directs and stars in this experimental film where the whole thing was shot live in one night and screened into cinemas. If you factor all these elements in, then Woody's performance was Academy Award or Tony? It was fantastic as an experience and was a genuinely delightful film. One camera. Photograph: Alex MacNaughton. The brainchild of Woody Harrelson, this is a semi-true retelling of events of a night that spiraled out of his control and landed him in prison, leaving him with some serious questions to ponder about himself, his friendships, and the direction of his life. Laced with self-mockery, it's very funny, and far better than we had any right to expect. While it was in fact pulled off quite well, the film suffers from attempts at humor mostly falling flat, and a story that turns out to be not all that interesting. Lost in London I
