# The Cabinet of Dr. Ramirez (1991)

1991 · 111 min · Drama · Germany, United Kingdom, France, United States


## Synopsis

The Cabinet of Dr. Ramirez is a 1991 modern silent film directed by Peter Sellars and starring Mikhail Baryshnikov, Joan Cusack and Peter Gallagher. It is a loose remake of The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. However, the storyline was created as the film was being made, so it has few similarities with the original film. The film was screened only at the 1992 Sundance Film Festival and never theatrically released. David Lynch served as an executive producer.
