The crew is the same as that of ''El Patrullero''; the designer is Cecilia Montiel , the cameraman Miguel Garzon, the editor Carlos Puente. Stylistically it is quite different. The colours are impossibly bright, the locations monumental and exaggerated (particularly the police station - a maze of corridors built in Mexico City 's main post office and the Convento de San Ildefonso, where Lonnrot meets his end). ''Death and the Compass'' was originally a 55-minute drama made for Spanish TV/ BBC in 1992, the quintocentenary year of the Spanish invasion of Latin America. The producer, Karl Braun, found further money from Japan to expand the film into a feature, but the film was not completed until four years after it was shot. EXTERNAL LINKS |
