The Last Film Festival (2016)

After having his latest movie turned down by every known film festival, a failing film producer (Dennis Hopper) manages to get his "disaster" of a movie entered into an obscure film festival in a small town. Hollywood egos and phonies clash with small town egos and phonies. Directed by producer (PLAYING FOR TIME) turned director Linda Yellen. An incoherent unfunny satire with a troubled history. It was filmed in 2010 but Dennis Hopper died before the film was completed. It was finally released in Los Angeles some 6 years later. Surprisingly, the film received some decent reviews when it was released (escaped?). I felt sorry for the actors who all try desperately to make it fun but to no avail. The film's best performance comes from Jacqueline Bisset as Hopper's Italian movie star ex-wife. She's very good so it's a pity it wasn't for a better film. With Jobeth Williams, Leelee Sobieski, Chris Kattan, Katrina Bowden, Agim Kaba and Joseph Cross.
