JOHNNY MNEMONIC (Robert Longo, 1995)

30 years ago today, filming began on JM!

I remember reading about it being announced in film magazines, and I was so excited because it seemed like the most ambitious project Dolph was ever part of, the title was mysterious, the cast was unheard of, it was penned by a revered cyberpunk writer, and it sounded like it could become a sci-fi masterpiece like the BLADE RUNNER of the 90s...

Then started a long, long wait before I could see it in November 1995 (six months after the US)...

A very rare advert from when JM was presented/promoted in Cannes 1994 (by Dolph and Dina Meyer notably) while it was still in production
