Filmes

Goya
Production Design
Francisco Goya (1746-1828), deaf and ill, lives the last years of his life in voluntary exile in Bordeaux, a Liberal protesting the oppressive rule of Ferdinand VII. He's living with his much younger wife Leocadia and their daughter Rosario. He continues to paint at night, and in flashbacks stirred by conversations with his daughter, by awful headaches, and by the befuddlement of age, he relives key times in his life.
De Salto Alto
Production Design
Depois de quinze anos sem contato, a cantora extravagante Becky del Páramo volta a entrar na vida de sua filha Rebeca quando vai a Madri para um show. Ela descobre que sua filha está casada com um antigo amante seu. Enquanto as duas tentam se reconciliar, ocorre um assassinato.
Promised... sworn!
Production Design
The life and love affairs of a 12-year-old boy Pierre who lived in France during the Nazi occupation in 1944. We see his family, his chubby friend, the girl who ignores him - and the German defector who hides in the cellar. He suffers from a slightly more prominent nasal appendage than the average of his congeners. This complex initially serving it, will ultimately be the detonator of his success with women and the entire population of the city.
Carmen
Set Decoration
A film version of the famous Bizet opera, where a soldier (Don Jose) falls in love with a beautiful factory worker (Carmen), but she does not reciprocate his feelings.
Os Cavaleiros do Buzkashi
Production Design
In the poor, desolate northern provinces of the mountainous feudal Sunni kingdom of Afghanistan (before the Soviet-engineered republican revolutions), the status of the proud men and their clans is determined less by wealth or even military power (both rare) then by victories in the ancient, though game of buskashi, a vicious form of polo dating back to Genghis Khan, in which the chapendaz (participating horsemen) use their horse-whips on both mounts and rivals in a ruthless fight for a heavy 'ball', a dead calf, which must be carried a long way, almost impossible with all the others mercilessly assailing. Tursen, a former champion, now holds the status of village notable thanks to his position as stable-keeper of the regional lord Osman Bey, and has finally bred a horse without equal, the white stallion Jahil, in time for the royal tournament on the plain of Bagrami, just outside the capital Kabul...
Patton, Rebelde ou Herói?
Set Decoration
Norte da África, 1943. Patton (George C. Scott) assume o comando e injeta disciplina nos seus subordinados. Na Segunda Guerra, preocupado com a batalha contra o Marechal Rommel (Karl Michael Vogler), Patton procura entendê-lo lendo o livro do próprio Rommel. Promovido, é enviado para a Itália, mas coloca o futuro de sua carreira em risco ao esbofetear um recruta que estava tendo um colapso nervoso. Este incidente o faz perder o comando do seu exército e, por extensão, ser excluído da invasão do "Dia D", além de ser forçado a pedir desculpas públicas pelo ocorrido.
A Estrela do Sul
Set Designer
Comedy adventure based on a Jules Verne novel about the ups and downs of jewel thieves in the wilds of Africa circa 1900. George Segal is the appealing hero-heel and Ursula Andress is visually stunning as the lady in the proceedings. Orson Welles has a small role.

The middle-aged Constance watches a young couple that lives across the courtyard; the girl plays loud pop music and goes out of her way to be unpleasant to the classically educated and piano-playing Constance.

Constance keeps silent about the murder and offers the young Hugo a place in her bed. Then the blackmail notes start to arrive...
