100 Years – The Movie You Will Never See - in theaters November 18, 2115

[dan8885]

A movie no one will ever see is set to have a display at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.

100 Years – The Movie You Will Never See, starring John Malkovich and directed by Robert Rodriguez, will be showcased at the Cannes Film Festival this month. The film, first announced in November, was made in conjunction with Louis XIII cognac and won’t arrive in theaters (or whatever theaters are called in the future) for another hundred years, on Nov. 18, 2115.

Per a press release, “to ensure that 100 Years remains secure until its official premiere,” the project is being “held in a special safe that will open automatically in 100 years when the timing is complete.” That safe will make an appearance at the Cannes Film Festival before hitting other cities around the globe and eventually heading back to Cognac, France and the Louis XIII cellars.

“100 Years starring John Malkovich is clearly an innovative cinematographic project. I hope that our descendants will consider the movie 100 Years for the Palme d’Or at Cannes Film Festival in 2116,” Thierry Frémaux, general delegate of Cannes Film Festival, said in a statement.

Heard about this a while back. Shame we'll probably never get to see it, although Rodriguez is usually hit or miss for me, so I'm not too disappointed lol.

Pretty sure this was just a promotional stunt...

Yeah, I'm sure some industrious dude will have that on Pirate Bay in a week!
That is a dare that makes pirates salivate!

*and a Robert Rodriguez film will A) not age like 100 year old cognac and B) by definition- suck.

@pdbluray LOL! I see what you did there

@dan8885 So the Louis xiii cognac will take 100 years to complete? And that's why they are filming this "movie"?

Apparently, the director of Photography is Garth from WAYNE'S WORLD...

I don't know dude. I would've also thought it's a promotion stunt but with Cannes involved I was getting curious.

It is definitely an ad. It's in the same vein is that Scorsese commercial they did with DeNiro and Dicaprio for that Casino. There is no way they are making a movie where John Malkovich goes into the future and discovers some brandy in a vault! And if you look closely - there really is no production design at a feature film level.
It's just an ad for brandy.

I thought there was already a thread for this
