Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaProducer Wes Herschensohn in his book "Resurrection in Cannes: The Making of The Picasso Summer" states that the final shot was filmed in Catalina, because it resembled the shores of Southern France. Mr. Herschensohn did the sand drawings and a local man named Duke Fishman played Picasso -he bore a striking resemblance to Picasso. He was somewhat of an artist himself and briefly able to continue Herschensohn's sand drawings for the camera.
- GoofsThe couple is implied to leave within 24 hours, without passport, shots, nor visa. It is doubtful those could be obtained for non-emergency reasons, even in 1969.
- Quotes
Luis Miguel Dominguín: There, you see. And, there. And there. Always the horses, the man, the bulls. One way or another, with oils or watercolors or etchings and now in clay. Picasso comes back to the arena. Because he is Spanish and because he cannot come back to Spain, he must come back in his own way. And so again and again, Picasso returns to the center of life in Spain, which is the bull-ring. You wish to see Picasso? Then you must enter that arena yourself - and fight a bull.
George Smith: Do you think, eh, its absolutely necessary, in order to met Picasso, that I actually have to fight a bull?
Luis Miguel Dominguín: Absolutely necessary!
George Smith: Fine. Well, okay. I'll fight a bull.
