Blood Into Wine English Film Synopsis:
Keenan’s various musical entities (Tool, Puscifer and A Perfect Circle) have sold over 10 million records in the US alone while the man himself has revealed little of his personal life. “Blood Into Wine” gives unprecedented insight into Keenan’s world and his motivations for taking on the arduous task of bringing winemaking to the region’s unforgiving landscape and how winemaking fits into Keenan’s creative trajectory.
The film is being co-directed by Ryan Page and Christopher Pomerenke (the filmmakers behind critically acclaimed documentaries Moog and The Heart Is A Drum Machine) and is set to wrap production in September with a limited theatrical release in February and March 2010. With the striking setting playing such an integral role in the shaping of this story, Page and Pomerenke elected to use a Red One camera (one of the highest quality digital cinema cameras available). The film is being shot by Cary Truelick, edited by Rob Beadle, and produced by Ryan Page, Christopher Pomerenke, Chris McDaniel, and Jason Stall.
Blood Into Wine Hollywood Movie Reviews :
The documentary "Blood Into Wine," directed by Ryan Page and Christopher Pomerenke, follows Maynard James Keenan and Eric Glomski as they attempt to start a stable of wineries in northern Arizona. Winemaking, you say? In Arizona? That is exactly the response the film is designed to address, as it includes background on the history of the region and winemaking (as well as some handsome nature photography) while making the pitch for the area to possibly be the next Napa.
Keenan's other job is as a rock star, a creative force behind the art-metal of Tool and A Perfect Circle as well as the parody cabaret of Puscifer. The frisson between his well-crafted personal mystique and the way the film presents him as a dedicated new winemaker learning his craft is intriguing. (Scenes of fans at a wine bottle signing event put his two sides in sharp relief.)
Appearances by diverse pals actress Milla Jovovich and comedian Patton Oswalt -- shot at the Silverlake Wine store -- as well as Wine Spectator's European bureau chief James Suckling -- also serve as a reminder that Keenan circulates in a number of realms.
The film's biggest problem is that it can never decide exactly what it wants to be -- a portrait of Keenan, a look at winemaking or a blatant promotional effort for Arizona wine valley tourism. Keenan's persona is layered enough to remain engaging despite all the sidestepping by the filmmakers; unfortunately, their film is not.
