Description
Summary:Coproduction: Bosnia and Hercegovina, Austria. Verzio FF submission. recounts the difficulties in the making of Helmut Käutner’s Die Letzte Brücke (The Last Bridge) (1954), an Austrian-Yugoslav-West German coproduction under the aegis of Columbia Pictures that received a special award at Cannes together with an honorable mention to actress Maria Schell for her remarkable performance. The insightful interviews alone with many professionals associated with that milestone production – save for the late Helmut Käutner (1908-1980) and Maria Schell (1926-2005) – make Knezevic’s Bridging Minds must viewing by the committed cineaste.
