Synopsis

Sweet Ruin is an experimental adaptation of Michelangelo Antonioni’s unrealized script, Technically Sweet, written in the late ’60s, but never produced. Set in the Amazon and Sardinia, it was to star Jack Nicholson as T., a disillusioned journalist obsessed with guns, and Maria Schneider as “The Girl.” In two screens paralleling the dual plots of his script, Sweet Ruin imagines the ruins of Antonioni’s work, as if it somehow actually filmed, but then lost and forgotten.
