SUBLIME CINEMA #407 - THE COMPANY OF WOLVES
Neil Jordan’s disturbing Red Riding Hood fantasy, this movie preceded Interview with the Vampire by more than a decade, but many of the same gothic touches are here. Anton Furst was behind the production design, which is beautiful, and it was the film that compelled Tim Burton to hire him for Batman. Furst tragically killed himself soon after winning an Oscar for that film, but his work remains notable for his artistry - he was a technician on Alien, and production designer for Kubrick on Full Metal Jacket.
