Bernard Rose

“You can’t make a good movie unless that’s what your objective is. Most people think it’s an interesting career path. It’s not. It’s a terrible waste of your life, making movies. Your life will be sucked into an awful black hole of nothing but unpleasant things going on. “How should I go about making my first movie?” If you have to ask me, don’t do it.”

A mournfully romantic adaptation of Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich, Ivansxtc mounts a searing reckoning with ego and mortality.
