Released in 1987. He was very ill while making it, dying in fact, on oxygen and in a wheelchair much of the time. Quite amazing when you think of it. It was undoubtedly a labor of love. The Dead was an adaptation of arguably the world's greatest short story, by his favorite author, and a love song to his adored Ireland. He collaborated with son Tony on the screenplay, and of course Anjelica starred.
Huton made several movues after Wise Blood - Annie, Under The Volcano, Prizzi's Honor, and The Dead. Probably leaving something out too.
