HORSE'S MOUTH (WIDESCREEN)

Details

• Release Year: 1958
• Genre: Comedy
• Plot: In Ronald Neame’s film of Joyce Cary’s classic novel, Alec Guinness transforms himself into one of cinema’s most indelible comic figures: the lovably scruffy painter Gulley Jimson. As the ill-behaved Jimson searches for a perfect canvas, he determines to let nothing come between himself and the realization of his exalted vision. A perceptive examination of the struggle of artistic creation, The Horse’s Mouth is also director Neame’s comic masterpiece.
