James Gray’s emotionally and visually resplendent epic tells the story of Lieutenant Colonel Percy Fawcett ( Charlie Hunnam), the British military-man-turned-explorer whose search for a lost city deep in the Amazon grows into an increasingly feverish, decades-long magnificent obsession.
His obsession eventually takes a toll on his reputation, his home life with his wife (Sienna Miller) and children, and his very existence.
Gray and cinematographer Darius Khondji cast quite a spell, exquisitely pitched between rapture and dizzying terror. Also starring Robert Pattinson and Tom Holland, The Lost City of Z represents a form of epic storytelling that has all but vanished from the landscape of modern cinema, and a rare level of artistry
The Lost City of Z premieres April 14th. Check out the teaser below for an exclusive first look.
