LAST DAYS
SYNOPSIS
LAST DAYS is filmmaker Gus Van Sant's
fictional meditation on the inner turmoil that
engulfs a brillant, but troubled musician in the
final hours of his life. Michael Pitt (THE
DREAMERS, HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH)
stars as Blake, an introspective artist whose
success has left him in a lonely place, where
livelihoods rest on his shoudlers and old
friends regularly tap him for money and
favors. LAST DAYS follows Blake through a
handful of hours he spends in and near his
wooded home, a fugitive from his own life.
Expanding on the elliptical style forged in his
previous two films, GERRY and the Palme
d'Or- winning ELEPHANT. Van Sant layers
images and sounds to articulate an emotional
landscape, creating a dynamic work about a
soul in transition.
