Before that, he was an architect working on projects like the Chrysler Building and the Golden Gate Bridge. He would later become a matte painter in Hollywood working on films like Citizen Kane and Destination Moon. Who was this remarkable man? His name was Chesley Bonestell (1888-1986). Chesley Bonestell’s mesmerizing depiction of “Saturn As Seen From Titan” became known as “the painting that launched a thousand careers.” Told by the many people who were influenced by Chesley Bonestell or knew him personally and punctuated with rare interview footage of the artist himself, the documentary compellingly chronicles the life of a quiet, artistic visionary, whose architecture and space art continue to inspire us to reach for the stars. ## Streaming options in the United Kingdom ### Free (with ads or TV licence) - [Plex](https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/592487-chesley-bonestell-a-brush-with-the-future/watch?locale=GB) - [Tubi TV](https://tubitv.com/search/Chesley%20Bonestell%3A%20A%20Brush%20with%20the%20Future) ### Rent (typically 24-48 hours) - [Apple TV Store](https://tv.apple.com/gb/search?term=Chesley%20Bonestell%3A%20A%20Brush%20with%20the%20Future) - [Amazon Video](https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=Chesley%20Bonestell%3A%20A%20Brush%20with%20the%20Future&i=instant-video) - [Google Play Movies](https://play.google.com/store/search?q=Chesley%20Bonestell%3A%20A%20Brush%20with%20the%20Future&c=movies) - [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Chesley%20Bonestell%3A%20A%20Brush%20with%20the%20Future+film) ### Buy (digital download) - [Apple TV Store](https://tv.apple.com/gb/search?term=Chesley%20Bonestell%3A%20A%20Brush%20with%20the%20Future) - [Amazon Video](https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=Chesley%20Bonestell%3A%20A%20Brush%20with%20the%20Future&i=instant-video) - [Google Play Movies](https://play.google.com/store/search?q=Chesley%20Bonestell%3A%20A%20Brush%20with%20the%20Future&c=movies) - [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Chesley%20Bonestell%3A%20A%20Brush%20with%20the%20Future+film) ## Frequently asked questions **Where can I watch Chesley Bonestell: A Brush with the Future for free in the UK?** Chesley Bonestell: A Brush with the Future (2018) is available free (with adverts or a TV licence) on Plex and Tubi TV in the United Kingdom. **How much does it cost to rent Chesley Bonestell: A Brush with the Future?** Rental prices vary by service and tier (HD vs 4K), typically £3.49 to £5.99 in the UK for a 48-hour rental.
