The Last Movie (15)

— ,Barbican Cinema 2 & 3
The Last Movie

Dennis Hopper's misunderstood journey behind the camera returns to the big screen for a long-overdue reappraisal. 

Hollywood movie crew is making a western in a Peruvian village. When production wraps, the stuntman Kansas stays behind, attempting to find redemption in isolation. Meanwhile, a group of indigenous Peruvians have taken over the abandoned set and begun to stage a re-enactment of the production.
 
Among the most storied productions of the New Hollywood era, director Dennis Hopper was given carte blanche by Universal for his next directorial feature after the tremendous commercial success of Easy Rider. The writer, director and star took the money and ran, choosing to stage The Last Movie in Peru – at a remove from the Hollywood machine.
