The crowd sourced encyclopedia's article on the film, read directly for this entry. Its strength is a well referenced production, cast and reception record spanning the film's troubled fourteen year completion. Its limit is that it is not independently peer reviewed, so it is cited here for corroborated production and reception detail rather than for deeper film-scholarly analysis, most of which sits in books not consulted for this entry.
