The Story Behind The Day the Clown Cried

[@MissPerriwinkle]

someday soon we will see it i trust....

The footage available of THE DAY THE CLOWN CRIED looks very promising today - maybe not so in 1971.

Although this is a morbid time I think in the time of something like Taiki Watiti's Jo Jo Rabbit in which a child has Hitler as an imaginary friend. As well as how Life is Beautiful was one of the first film's ever to try to show a lighter side to one of the greatest atrocities ever that has occured in man's history. I think it's time for the public to get to see the final result of Lewis work, even if the film isn't that great. I love all types of movies from the 70s and would love to see it.

My friend Lawrence Feintuck will be happy to hear that this movie will eventually be released in his and my lifetime. We will both be in attendance.

[@BlumenFalckFilmTalk]

Cool! Yes I heard it might come out in 2022, right?

[@VicMartino]

@@BlumenFalckFilmTalk 2024 is the year said here. Hopefully before, we'll just have to wait and see.

[@BlumenFalckFilmTalk]

@@VicMartino Cool!

The movie and backstory is begging for a satire (egotistical but slapstick has-been tries to make a serious movie).

Wait Jerry said he had the script in the early 60s and put it aside till years later....his own owrds here on KZbin in an interview .... He didn't just jump up and want to do it. It took time, timing and he still had reservations. Ahead of its time

harry shearer sure has gotten a lot of publicity mileage out of his criticism. seeing that he is nearly as much of a surly exaggerator as lewis, i wouldn’t believe everything he says.
