Limbo is a 1999 drama film written, directed, and produced by American filmmaker John Sayles. The drama features Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, David Strathairn, Vanessa Martinez and Kris Kristofferson.
In the United States, it was the first film released by the resurrected Screen Gems unit of Sony Pictures Entertainment.
The story of a victim...of lust.
Limbo tells the story of people trying to reinvent themselves in the Southeastern islands of Alaska. The story revolves around Joe Gastineau, a fisherman traumatised by an accident at sea years before, singer Donna de Angelo and her disaffected daughter Noelle who come into Joe's life. When Joe's fast-talking half-brother Bobby returns to town and asks Joe for a favor, the lives of the characters are changed forever. Written by Anonymous
Filmed in four days. Edited over a period of ten days.
SPOILER: When David gets shot in the face, the intention was to show the impact. Three life-size dummy-heads were built by Black Orc Studios and then blown up. In the editing stages the filmmakers realized that the effect did not quite fit in and decided to leave it out. The effect was one of the highest production costs of the entire production.
The film is the main crew's final student-film.
Adam Moses (Christopher Russo) is a lawyer whose latest case gets him into more trouble than he bargains for. A run in with Tony Tachinardi (George Morafettis), and an unusual encounter on a city rooftop changes his world completely. Adam becomes trapped in Limbo, a place where time stands still. In this new world Adam will contemplate the possibilities of his power as a human being whose actions no longer have meaning or consequence. How long will it take for what's buried to surface?......An eternity? Written by Thomas Ikimi
