![]() ![]() ![]() Approaching the material with his signature old fashioned style, Gray makes every moment of The Lost City of Z - most of which are quiet and intimate conversations between characters - feel as important as the last. If that sounds like a lot for one film to cover, it definitely is, and yet Gray somehow manages to make it all feel worthwhile, never rushing over or spending too much time on these various events. The film - based on the book of the same name by David Grann - stars Charlie Hunnam as Fawcett, and follows Percy through his early career in the army, to his various expeditions into the Amazon, his time serving and commanding in the British military during World War I, and his final expedition into the dangerous jungles of South America, which may or may not have cost him his life. Fawcett is the subject and main character of writer-director James Gray’s The Lost City of Z. ![]()
