Dante’s Inferno

(Producing, Production Services)

A great poet, Dante, finds the perfect love relationship with Beatrice. Later, he discovers that their relationship cannot be consummated until the afterlife. He is then sent by God on a sacred mission to travel through Hell, Purgatory and Paradise to share the resulting experience with humankind. Beatrice appears in Limbo who asks Virgil, Dante's hero, to rescue Dante from 3 wild beasts, to protect him from all perils and to guide him through Inferno and Purgatorio (first sequel movie). Inferno (Hell) is a central core of evil in the Earth's interior. There are nine circles in Hell, each corresponding to the seriousness of the sins of the damned souls, in the lowest of which is Lucifer himself, here known as Dis, frozen forever in ice up to his waist. Dante and Virgil must walk over Lucifer's bottom body to exit Inferno (Hell), and soon after to enter Purgatorio.

It’s Official—Pre-production Begins

“I never ask people for permission to make a film. Instead, I present them with the fact that I’m making a film. If they’re wise, they’ll get in on it early.”
—Francis Ford Coppola


Last week our unit production manager for Rufus Rex officially started work and I paid UPS an astounding amount of money to deliver a letter to the Republic of Georgia officially inviting our lead actress to the United States. We’re also officially in pre-production on the grassroots (my preferred term, since I dislike “microbudget”—no art should be defined by its budget) movie Rufus Rex, which my 15-year-old son, Nick, and I wrote together last winter.
