Amidst political turmoil on a Caribbean Island, the first assistant director is determined to see his film through - if the chaos doesn't consume them first. Between managing an impossible lead actor, navigating power struggles on and off set, and a crew member vanishing under mysterious circumstances, the production is at risk of falling apart.
Blending sharp dialogue, rich behind-the-scenes detail, and the grit of a top-notch crew, All Wrapped Up is a compelling portrait of non-blockbuster filmmaking under fire -where the real battle isn't just on screen.
Informed by his years of experience in film and television, Larry Lamb gives an inside look at the industry; the trials, tribulations, and hard won successes of producing a piece of cinema.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"Some of my fondest
memories of being on the set of Gavin and Stacey were listening to Larry Lamb
tell incredible stories. He is one of the best." James
Corden
"Hooray, at last, an insight into the unsung hero,
at the helm of making filming magic. This intriguing story illuminates the
tightrope day-to-day tasks of a 1st assistant director and the crew, on and off
a film set - that has never been touched on before. Mr Lamb pulls no punches. It is speedy, sexy and
amusingly truthful. I loved it." Celia Imrie
"An irresistible homage to the unsung heroes of filmmaking told by
inside man and champion raconteur, Larry Lamb." Camilla Barnes
