d bulls. Life is unfilmable.
A Cock and Bull Story is a unique and unconventional film that follows the making of a film adaptation of Laurence Sterne's famously unfilmable novel, Tristram Shandy. The movie oscillates between scenes from the adaptation and behind-the-scenes footage, blurring the lines between fiction and reality.
The film explores the complex dynamics between the actors, their egos, and their roles. The size of their parts becomes a recurring theme, symbolizing both physical and metaphorical significance. Alongside this, the film also delves into the personal lives of the actors, with the lead's girlfriend and their infant son making appearances, adding additional layers of distraction and chaos.
The process of filming is depicted as tumultuous, with scenes being shot, re-shot, and discarded. The purpose of the project itself remains elusive, leaving the audience questioning the true intention behind the adaptation.
A Cock and Bull Story delves into the universal themes of fathers and sons, men and women, and the eternal struggle between life's unpredictability and the desire to capture it on film. Throughout the film, the narrative constantly interrupts itself, mimicking the structure of Sterne's novel.
This clever and witty film challenges traditional storytelling and invites viewers to question the boundaries of reality and fiction. A Cock and Bull Story is a unique cinematic experience that showcases the complexity of life and the elusive nature of art.
