Dangerous
Intimacy: The Untold Story of Mark Twain’s Final Years will use the recollecions of Twain, based on his
soon to be published autobiography, and the dramatized voices of Twain and the principals based on their diaries
and unpublished memoirs; a narrative based on Karen Lystra's book from the University of California Press; and spellbinding
dramatizations to bring the story to life. Produced by Richard Altomonte (Yesterday’s Time), the documentary will use
archival photographs and vintage film – as well as revisiting key locations, Redding, Connecticut and the Twain summer
home in Elmira, New York – to recreate the look and feel of the time and capture the tension and drama of the events.
Dangerous Intimacy is produced in HD and is intended for broadcast, public television or cable release. It will be
available in all media in the US and throughout the world in time to commemorate the Centennial of Mark Twain's death in 2010.
