In the aftermath of this disaster, Al Pacino decided to take a 4 year long hiatus from acting to distance himself from the project and reevaluate his choices. The damage was so big that it rippled throughout the island’s film industry for years, deterring financing for big productions. Marketing a British film which was released out of the blue turned out to be harder than originally thought, even with names like Pacino and Donald Sutherland in the cast and Revolution made a measly 360,000 dollars in 3 weeks, out of a 28 million dollar budget, making it the biggest flop in British cinema at the time. ![]() The theatrical cut did not vindicate expectations, with the mediocre performances being overshadowed only by the overly dramatic narration.

She knows she needs a talented band to sign and decides to use an alter-ego, Jem, and form a group called the Holograms. The show follows their rise to fame and the conflict they experience with rival girl bands. The premise of the series revolves around Benton inheriting her father’s music company Starlight Music and keeping the business from going under.
