Sky Arte to Air Documentary on Hollywood Storyboard Genius Harold Michelson and Wife Lillian
The Oscar-nominated director Daniel Raim and executive producer Danny DeVito have created the documentary "Harold and Lillian ‒ A Hollywood Love Story," which will air on Sky Arte on October 24, 2021. The film explores the creative and romantic partnership between storyboard artist Harold Michelson and film researcher Lillian Michelson, a duo once considered "the heart of Hollywood." They contributed to iconic films such as "The Ten Commandments," "The Birds," "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?," "The Graduate," "Rosemary's Baby," "Fiddler on the Roof," "Star Trek: The Motion Picture," "Scarface," and "Full Metal Jacket." Despite shaping the aesthetics of these masterpieces, their work often went uncredited. The documentary uses love letters, footage, archival materials, and interviews with Danny DeVito, Mel Brooks, Francis Ford Coppola, and others to trace their extraordinary careers. Sky Arte's website is powered by Artribune, which manages its content and digital interface.
