Boogie Woogie - Sex, Lügen, Geld und Kunst (2010)

Boogie Woogie

In London möchte der erfolgreiche Galerist Art Spindle ein wertvolles Mondrian-Gemälde namens Boogie Woogie von dem alten deutschen Industriellen Rhinegold erwerben. An dem Kunstwerk ist unter anderem auch der Sammler Maclestone interessiert, und Rhinegolds Berater verstehen die Konkurrenz zu nutzen. Unterdessen verfolgt Spindles junge Assistentin ganz eigene Interessen und schließt dafür auch mal ein Bündnis mit dem Feind. Maclestones vernachlässigte Ehefrau zieht es derweil zu aufstrebenden jungen Künstlern.

Wissenswertes

Boogie Woogie is a 2009 British black comedy film directed by Duncan Ward and produced by Eric Eisner and Leonid Rozhetskin. It is based on the 2000 novel of the same name by Danny Moynihan, who adapted his own book on the New York art world of the 1990s and titled it based on the unfinished 1944 Piet Mondrian painting Victory Boogie-Woogie.

Production

Danny Moynihan's novel for Boogie Woogie was published in 2000, based on his hedonistic New York years.

Dennis Hopper originally held the option to adapt the novel into a screenplay for a film to be set in New York City; later, Moynihan's friend, Duncan Ward, a documentary filmmaker, became involved, with Rachel Weisz agreeing to play the "central, nubile gallerist" role eventually portrayed by Graham.

After Weisz dropped out, producers switched the film's location to London for cost reasons; Moynihan "discovered then-unknown Amanda Seyfried living around the corner in Chelsea" and got her cast as an "art-world nymphet"; Charlotte Rampling, a family friend of Moynihan's, makes a cameo appearance. Principal photography took place in London in December 2006.
