IFC Films has released a poster and trailer for Framing John DeLorean, a documentary fused with narrative elements, which tells the story of the rise and fall of John DeLorean, featuring Alec Baldwin as the automobile engineer and founder of the DeLorean Motor Company. Check them out here…
Money, power, politics, drugs, scandal, and fast cars. The incredible story of John DeLorean is the stuff of a Hollywood screenwriter’s dreams. But who was the real John DeLorean? To some, he was a renegade visionary who revolutionized the automobile industry. To others, he was the ultimate con man. For the first time, FRAMING JOHN DELOREAN recounts the extraordinary life and legend of the controversial automaker, tracing his meteoric rise through the ranks of General Motors, his obsessive quest to build a sports car that would conquer the world, and his shocking fall from grace on charges of cocaine trafficking. Interweaving a treasure trove of archival footage with dramatic vignettes starring Alec Baldwin as DeLorean, directors Sheena M. Joyce and Don Argott (The Art of the Steal) show a gripping look at a man who gambled everything in his pursuit of the American Dream.
Framing John DeLorean is set for release on June 7th and features a cast that includes Alec Baldwin, Morena Baccarin, Josh Charles, Dean Winters, Michael Rispoli, Jason Jones, Dana Ashbrook, Josh Cooke, and Sean Cullen.
