This film is not mentioned on Kilmer's official website, nor can I find it listed at any other reputable source. The guy who put this information up even put Karel Roden twice (as Karel Rodin)!
shareOk, I found a link but only on Telewizja Polska.

But no mention of Kilmer's participation in ANY English-language media. I would think with a big name like Kilmer that it would get mentioned somewhere in the English-speaking world. No announcement even from Kilmer's own website. Something still doesn't sound right.
Oh yeah, and the article says the film is English-language. I can't wait to hear Bogus speak English for an entire movie.
Thanks for the info. I too am very curious to see if Linda has improved upon his English since Happy New York. Well, At least I won't have to wonder about accurate subtitles.
sharequote from Kilmer : ""I'd be in a bad western on a good horse any day of the week. It's such a fantastic genre of film."
so i think Val will show up in this ;] Mam przynajmniej taka nadzieje!
I presume it is true as I just read in a Polish women weekly 'Wysokie Obcasy'. As a matter of fact it was mentioned by an actress - Katarzyna Figura, who took part in the project so I do not believe it's bogus. I'd rather think it's an episode part or someting like that.

I saw the movie SUMMER LOVE at the 63. Mostra Internazionale d'Arte Cinematografica in Venice and it is definitly Val Kilmer starring as The Wanted Man. Unfortunately he has no dialogue but that is because he is dead. Most of the time he is lying dead chained up to an pole in front of the saloon and decaying. During the movie the sheriff puts a halfed tomatoe on Kilmers eyes and squeezes the slices. Later Kilmers head is chopped off the corpse with a spade. Quite funny.
Will the Polski Western reinvent the genre like the Spaghetti Western? Or will it be a new sub-genre? I don't know. Watch the movie and have fun.
So is the film any good? Is Val Kilmer in "A bad western on a good horse," or is he in a good western on a good horse?
Also, how was Boguslaw Linda's English? Actually, how was the entire cast's English being this movie is supposedly an English language film.
Well the dialogues weren't much so they didn't have difficulty in speaking English..the movie was...well i think it was good but get prepared for a surrealistic and fan tribute to Sergio Leone in all his genre...
shareTheir voices were dubed with actors putting on Polish accents because you could not understand some of their dialogue at all.
"Boooobytwap!"
"So is the film any good?" No, take my word for it, it's stupid, plot makes no sense, characters are filth and have no meaning. The preview makes it look like it's a Val Kilmer movie... it IS not. Actually the preview makes you think it's a regular spaghetti type western, it IS not. What it is, is a blatent rip off and waste of film and peoples precious hours!!

Hell, that little obstacle didn't prevent Bruce Willis from babbling for an entire movie a few years ago...
Croc-O-Dyle, on Kilmer playing the dead:

Well, in this movie, Kilmer is not only dead (if you're referring to The Sixth Sense where Willis was the spirit of a dead person) he's a frickin' corpse. Literally, plays a corpse that does nothing but open his eyes one time in a post-mortem fashion. We're talking Kevin Costner in The Big Chill-dead.
Val Kilmer took a role of a corpse in an unknown film? I thought he wasn't doing bad.

i just saw the movie last night and val kilmer was indeed in it. he had absolutely no lines, didn't move at all...he played a corpse. not even kidding. the director was there for q&a afterwards and someone asked how he convinced val kilmer ot be in it. he said val kilmer happened to be in russia at the time, and through some footwork and phone calls, they somehow convinced him to stop off in warsaw for a couple days on his way back to wherever it was he was going. hence, the very limited role.
this was pretty mucht the most ridiculous movie i had ever seen. the director is an artist turned director, who has had no training whatsoever in storytelling or film as a medium of artistic expression...and it was pretty obvious. he himself stated that he was self taught. not docking him points for that, because tarantino was pretty much self taught (for the most part), but i'm hating on the movie because it just was not very good at all. no discernable plot (it was very convoluted to say the least). it was pretty much a western with a bunch of seemingly random crap happening. afterwards he even said it wasn't about telling a particularly interesting story. his goal going in was to use a genre (and a damn good one, at that) to paint a portrait of humanity and use dislocation as a way to express his ideas about culture.
this just goes to show how important plot is, and how a good movie starts with a good screenplay, no exceptions. you can't have success in this medium without having some sort of structure that allows the audienc to relate on some level. this was just messy and a disaster. i wanted to wash my eyes out with soap and then watch the good the bad and the ugly and unforgiven and shane in an attempt to re-legitimize the genre.
but yeah...val kilmer was in it. random.
So how does the cast do with their English? Boguslaw Linda in particular?
shareWell... they do all right, I guess, on the whole. My problem was that, often, they would mumble, and while I could understand what they said through the accent, half the time I couldn't hear what they were saying at all. That bugged me.
-Bad waves of paranoia. Madness. Fear and loathing.-
Yep. I found this to be true as well. I also thought some of Linda's lines where delivered with a very thick accent while others had little accent to them.
shareThank God I didn't pay anything to check out this "movie".
I got the DVD from my library.
I could not finish watching this movie but do have a
question. Does Val Kilmer ever speak?
This is by far the worse movie I have ever seen.
PS I can understand Kilmer not wanting to take any
credit for being in this piece of *beep*
Nope, Kilmer is a corpse. No lines.
