ABOUT ALAMO PICTURES
Documentaries About America
Alamo Pictures is a London-based production company. We make documentaries about the US from a European perspective for an international audience.
Benefitting from an outsider’s keen eye our filmmakers explore topical, uniquely American stories from a European point of view while drawing on years of stateside experience to engage with subjects sympathetically.
The result is engaging cinema that defies stereotypes and helps our audiences truly understand what makes America tick.

Belushi: The Brilliance and Tragedy of a Comedy Genius
At one moment, John Belushi had the number one show on television, the number one film at the box office, and the number one record on the charts. Just three years later he died from a heroin overdose aged just 33. How did such a talented figure come to such a tragic end?
The award-winning director, producer, and writer, R.J. Cutler, helps us find out as we talk about his new film Belushi (2020).
