Trouble In Mind is set in “Rain City”, a land of opportunities ripe for the picking – and a world of drugs, crime and sex. The City of Hilly Blue (Divine), obscene king of crime, who rules with all-pervading evil. For the beautiful, vulnerable Georgia (Lori Singer), it spelt a new beginning; for her lover Coop (Keith Carradine) it spelt the beginning of the end. As Coop’s life slides into crime his relationship with Georgia crumbles. But when Hawk (Kris Kristofferson) ex-cop with a past, finds Georgia and begins a hesitant seduction, Georgia begs Hawk to save her old lover. Fogbound. On a narrow road in a spectacular mountain range, a thick and sudden fog has enveloped a van containing Bob (Luke Perry), plus couple Leo (Ben Daniels) and Ann (Orla Brady). As time passes and the mist grows thicker, fissures begin to appear among the trio. The seemingly content marriage of Leo and Ann has major problems that only begin with children and there’s clearly something troubling their best friend Bob that may involve a past indiscretion with Ann. Their inevitable storytelling and gamesmanship quickly moves from the mischievous to the sinister. The Discovery of Heaven is based on the novel by Harry Mulisch, one of Netherlands’s greatest writers. 2000 years after Christ was sent to earth to convert humanity, God decides to cancel His contract with mankind and He wants the stone tablets with the ten commandments returned to heaven. A couple are chosen to produce and raise a child who must retrieve the tablets and return them to heaven.Trouble In Mind is set in “Rain City”, a land of opportunities ripe for the picking – and a world of drugs, crime and sex.

News October 2003:

Hollywood Classics acquires Rights to Bruce Beresford's "Bride of The Wind".

Director Bruce Beresford (Driving Miss Daisy, Double Jeopardy) brings to life the romance and excitement of turn-of-the-century Vienna in Bride of The Wind, the true story of one of the 20th century's most remarkable women, Alma Mahler, lover to Europe's greatest geniuses.

Every generation has its muse. In ancient Greece, there was Helen of Troy. In the Middle Ages, there was the Mona Lisa. And in turn-of-the-century Vienna, there was Alma: a brilliant, sexy young musician who aroused the passions of Europešs greatest artists. Alma seduced lover after lover who changed the world ­ yet, it was she who ultimately changed each of them.

In the midst of Vienna's explosive Golden Age of artistic, musical and scientific exploration, the irrepressible Alma Schindler was involved in tumultuous marriages and affairs with some of the 20th Century's most riveting men including the daring composer Gustav Mahler, the expressionist painter Oskar Kokoschka, the influential modern architect Walter Gropius and the accomplished novelist Franz Werfel.

Starring as Alma, newcomer Sarah Wynter plays opposite two-time Tony Award-winner Jonathan Pryce, who portrays the perfection-obsessed Gustav Mahler, and Vincent Perez, who in a sensual performance as the fiery artist Kokoschka, portrays a man so in love with Alma he could not control his jealousy.

Bride of The Wind was produced in 2001 and has a running time of 99 minutes. It is a UK/German/Austrian production.
