"I was influenced by the portraits that we looked at during our preparation... I wanted to give the impression that they (Marianne and Héloïse) were themselves the light of the film, which created a sense of abstraction reminiscent of paintings." Claire Mathon
Editing @bwestcineaste’s interview with Adèle Haenel for @SeventhRow’s book on PORTRAIT OF A LADY ON FIRE (https://t.co/Ez33ONKiuf) and it’s honestly one of the best interviews with an actor I’ve read. She so fully understands her craft and speaks so insightful on her choices.
“It’s how we feel when we fall in love - we patiently hope that it’s mutual, that it’s building patientiently. But inside, we are so impatient.” -C. Sciamma
The Academy's actors, directors, cinematographers, editors, production designers, visual effects artists, composers, producers, publicists, makeup artists, hairstylists, casting directors, executives and writers have all voted. Now we wait. #OscarNoms
When you realize that Céline wrote the film meditating on Adèle and Adèle probably drew from her own memories with Céline to give her performance in the orchestra scene, you actually cry HARDER during the final Portrait scene
Okay, but she does not make the lover's choice (where Orpheus was so in love he couldn't help it - the dumb choice, according to Sophie), and she doesn't make the poet's choice either. Instead, Héloïse/Eurydice gives herself the agency and allows Marianne/Orpheus to let her go.
I just want to listen to Céline Sciamma talk about filmmaking forever 😍
“I want you to leave this room filled with this story but also filled with your story.”
Gonna create the ultimate Portrait groupchat, retweet/reply to enter and I'll pick people tomorrow morning (can't do everyone as I have too many citizens here)
