La Nuit américaine
Synopsis
A committed filmmaker struggles to complete his latest project while coping with a myriad of crises, personal and professional, among the cast and crew.
Cinema Atlas Connection
Chazelle cited films like 'Singin’ in the Rain,' 'La Nuit Américaine' and 'Amarcord' as inspirations for 'Babylon’s' behind-the-scenes narrative.
The closest point of reference might be Truffaut's 'Day For Night', though that film is a very happy celebration of moviemaking and mine is the opposite.
