Beschreibung

Love and Death on Long Island is a cult novella written by Gilbert Adair and first published in 1990, it was subsequently adapted to make the 1997 film directed by Richard Kwietniowski, starring Jason Priestley, John Hurt, Fiona Loewi, Sheila Hancock and Anne Reid. It has latterly been adapted as stage play with music by Ben Parry, book and libretto by Gilbert Adair himself, directed by Edward Williams with Anna Carteret, Gordon Fraser and Richard O'Callaghan in pre-production for presention in London's West End 2008. The storyline of obsession somewhat resembles that of Death in Venice. Given Adair's self- consciousness as a writer, all such resemblances are likely to be intentional. The film has a musical score by Richard Grassby-Lewis. It was filmed in Nova Scotia. The title includes a pun: Death/De'Ath ...The name Giles De'Ath also echoes that of Gilbert Adair. The film was screened in the Un Certain Regard section at the 1997 Cannes Film Festival.
