brilliant comment by noemie at the end when she talks about the first portrait as a metaphor for being stuck in a patriarchal, male gaze culture without even realizing it. but the second portrait is a collaboration and a love story which makes the art more truthful as it allows the artist to find herself and her unique voice. most films i've seen are the first portrait. and it's not just because men have made them but because they are missing the element of the second portrait; they are too busy being praised for maintaining the rules, conventions, and ideas of "patriarchally cultured" filmmaking. this film is definitely one we've been missing. which is probs why i sobbed uncontrollably for 10 minutes afterwards. honestly, we need more heloises in this world who aren't afraid to tell artists to get their shit together.
I don't mean to be rude, but...I wonder if one has to be a lesbian and maybe lost a lover to cry with this movie. I was utterly bored with it. Sorry, I don't mean to be rude but I am really curious if the gay sensibility is so different from the heterosexual point of view. I don't know if the director based her story on something factual, some lesbians in the 1770's that she read about it.
@@anairenemartinez165 to answer your first question, absolutely not. the large majority of people seeing this and connecting with it are not LGBTQ. it was definitely a life-changing film for me as a woman, though, as it's themes are deeply rooted in the feminine experience. and to answer your second question no, there is no difference between loving a person if you are heterosexual or homosexual. however, if you are viewing this film through the lens as if these women are doing something "different" than you may need to readjust. this is love. love is love. and to answer your third question, this is a fictional story. celine did not base this on any real, factual love story. sorry to hear you were bored. you seem to be in the minority, though.
And I try to wait PATIENTLY for May 22, when it will be released!!! Sadly we have the virus closing theaters, restricting access!! Hopefully a way to see it on big screen.
I absolutely love the way that Adele, being an actress, has absolute control over her mannerisms, facial expressions and body language, and yet the way she presents herself in real life is so unique and organic. She’s just so mesmerising
As a french, i'm very proud that french cinema is represented, outside the country, by these woman. These a lot of really good french films, but most of the time, they don't get the recognition outside of France. So it makes the succes of "Portrait of a Lady on Fire" even more satisfying.
@@enianggraini2408 It is true yes. And if you want more gossip, Adèle Haenel and Céline Sciamma use to date. Haenel even thanks Sciamma at a award show by saying "thank you Céline, I love you". Wich was quite cute.
@@catherinefiant hahaaha, yeah.. People have their own feeling about someone love life.. I just though noemie is really handsome with her style now (short hair), eventhough she cuts her hair just because for her rule or something
Great answer by Adele Haenel - when confronted to work on sex scene in the film industry and how director Celine Sciamma protected her and Noemie Merlant from this uncomfortable moment. Unlike other directors who are lack of ideas and treat women as objects rather than subjects. Bravo to everyone who has worked on this beautiful movie, especially our wonderful womans :)
ohh I love these "womans" mistake so much french doing mistakes in English is just one of the most adorable things in the world and I'm not even native English
As a man, I felt I was automatically waiting for the movie to show 'more', like more skin, more display of their bodies, because this is what I always got from movies. During sex scenes, lots of movies like to pan across the woman's body, revealing her figure - she would be the main 'subject' of the scene. But with Portrait of a Lady on Fire, this was not the case. It's like I can tell that this movie was definitely not made by a man. I'm glad to have seen this. Love this movie. Hope more people see it.
these women are so powerful. céline’s quote about giving back the blood to historical women gave me chills. this movie conjured the dead and made us see them, like a lot of the best art. and it makes us see ourselves.
also as an actor, adele’s words on craft and the way she talks about the artist-audience relationship are just magic and so insightful. i would die to work with her or any of those three. like, no pay, no lines, gofer status if necessary....yeah magnificent
Still not entirely certain if they said "female gaze" of "female gays" either way I agree and I have decided to stan As a lesbian I will be staying, thank you
This was my favorite mediator/interviewer/presenter of a panel EVER! Congratulations, man! You'r funny, light, not disrespectful. I really loved it! A round of applause!
Yes! Céline succeeded. I left the theater feeling awed and grateful that good, inspiring films are still being made. This movie by far is the best one I have ever seen.

And she's sharing it with us with the greatest possible grace. I don't know about you, other youtube watchers, but that's the kind of role model I want for me and my people.
I love how noemie is really connected in every interviews with adele and celine, shes really close to them. Unlike to any others interviews of her films shes really distant. Here, feels like shes home with them?
I agree, it's beautiful to see someone so serene and comfortable. I think they really managed to create among them the accepting environment of which they were talking so passionately about.
Chelin Sciama kind of did in this film what Sarah Waters does with her novels. A very generous act of love and giving back to women in all ages. I love them both. I adored this movie.
They may have been asked the same questions more than once but just listening to them and trying to intellectually answer the questions creatively makes me admire them more and English isn't even their first language but they gracefully sent the ideas and thoughts across. Brilliant artists and people.
back from the past when Adele was only 17, the way she express herself and the way she moves didnt change.. and so for Celine.. 😸 soooo cute.. and Noemie's smile is captivating making Adele to smile secretly...😍❤❤❤❤❤
Obviously really disappointed with the changes at Collider. But SO pleased you're giving a platform to this amazing film. And great to hear one of the best directors of the last ten years talk about her work.
I absolutely adore this movie, two extremely gorgeous talented actresses and a very creative writer/director. This is by far one of the best films I have ever seen.
interviewer: do you know what rotten tomatoes is?? Adele: Nope... and then she's like "Of course who doesn't??"... She is sooooooo adorable. Just like a baby.
the film and this trio is such a blessing... celine is amazing with her vision and her words and nomemie and adele were so brilliant with their characters. also they're the cutest people ever :')
Im just amazed how Adele and the director still get along, very mature. Apparently they had a romantic relationship years ago but they ended in good terms. Thanks for this movie to all three of them.
What a wonderful love story at the end when she approaches the painting and see’s the book on her lap with her finger on page 28 my heart dropped still in love🏳️🌈❤️
Deborah DP that to me was the most beautiful moment of the whole film. Heloise's hand enveloped on her portrait of Marianne within her own portrait as a mark of eternal love - and the look on Marianne's face when she notices it. Just loved it. ❤️
“- where did you find this place to film this? - as you mean... - the location - oh I thought the sex scene 🙂 We can really only talk about the sex scene 🤓” You’re the best Céline! 🤣🤣🤣
The fact that a movie with NO explicit sex scene portrayed more passion that a film with one 10 minute sex scene & multiple others.... huh, maybe that’s what happens when lesbians write lesbian characters & a lesbian actress plays a lesbian. Who would’ve thought!
totallyyyyy agreeeeeeeeee!!! I rememberd someone saying "the movie is not excited enough not enough passioned sex scene" I was like,...they don't need explicit scene to burst out of love !!!
@BrianManson ... “A bunch of woke french women talking about a french film”🤔🤔🤔 It’s a movie, a really good one, and that it’s all Collider admires. I’m a Star Wars fan myself but Collider is something that goes beyond those amazing shows and can enjoy other amazing films. Shows and screeners like this helps lesser known films to be recognize and those films don’t have the fault of what Collider decided to do with their shows, but with comments like yours, they are paying the price.
@@ann_stucchi it's currently grossed 3 million....most people dont want this content...this video has 4.4k views. If collider want to make content for the woke crowd fair enough...but it won't last long. Most people CLEARLY don't want this stuff.
Celine is brilliant, and her choice not to have a score in the film was absolutely perfect. For me, it's what made the story even more real. And what I love about this is just how meta the message of this movie is. It's about Marianne breaking free from conventions and restrictions of art and society to express herself as she is (the painting, and her love for Heloise), and it's also echoed in Celine choosing not to follow the conventional romantic period drama by not including a score. She did what she thought was true of the story telling, and it paid off tremendously. There are long, uncomfortable silences where the characters are thinking and figuring themselves out. The realism of that would've been taken away with a score that would've filled those silences with swelling emotions of yearning, sadness, etc. Without the score, we were able to experience interactions for what they were without rose-tinted glasses, and that added to the intensity/tension between characters. This isn't to say that having a score is wrong; comparing this to Carol, I wouldn't say Carol shouldn't have had a score. It was a different story told through a different lense. There was even less dialogue between the characters who were not as forthcoming as Marianne and Heloise, and the music was necessary to fill in the gaps about their emotions. Celine had a unique story with a unique lense, and I think she did it great justice. I agree with all the choices she made
Wow, Adeele speaking whole sentences and how insightful! Too often we assume people from history don't share the same emotions, hopes and feelings that we do now. So yes, Celine had to make the characters real and nothing more, and let the story run
Postscript- 20 years pass . Heloise becomes a rich widow. She goes to Paris to commission a painting from Marianne’s shop. Their eyes meet. Marianne speaks. “You are the same, Beautiful.”
Estar viva e apreciar uma arte tão linda como esse filme acalentou meu coração e está me deixando revirada há dias. Maravilhosas, muito grata, sem dúvidas o melhor filme que já vi
I’ve seen all the interviews of this movie, these interviews need to get creative. They all ask the same boring questions, I feel bad for these 3 that they have to repeat themselves several times. I recommend they give a look on Charlie’s Angels or Ocean 8 cast interviews and learn how to make the interview more fun and catchy for both them and us And since it’s a French movie, I’d like it if we have these interviews in French, because speaking another language is like another you, you’ll use only words you know and the meanings won’t find their way to be expressed
Noemi and Adele didn't reherse together but studied the lines carefully instead. Adele basically said that creativity goes through the way how you say the lines. It's true!! how you deliver the lines says different stories. 💯
I've seen other interviews without Noemie and Adele's behavior is totally normal. She looks totally quiet and relaxed. But if Noemie appears, Adèle loses control! 😂😂🙈
just tell me it's not only my mind who hears gays instead of gaze... I mean the power of the gays or the power of the gaze... are they different tho.. js
Host- "you mentioned that this is a _love story with equality_; which was such a beautiful description of this movie" C- the movie is trying to depart globally from the _narrative of conflict and the dramaturgy of conflict_ as it's a love story between two women and _that is something that it wouldn't have happened if it was a woman and a man_ there is *no gender domination* but there is *also not any intellectual domination* and even though it's a relationship between also a model and an artist and you know usually we portray this with the kind of *power dynamic* and because I wrote it by myself decided _not to also push the buttons of _*_social hierarchy_*_ so we have a love dialogue in a creative dialogue that doesn't rely on the usual power dynamic that we used to, which is the dynamic of conflict_ it's also the case for the _erotic scenes, they are not based on the eroticism of conflict_ what happens when you do that I mean it's *politically new* so _it's new imaginary so it's interesting but it also new it brings new tension in the room new emotional journey for you because it's full of surprises_ that's why lies inequality in fiction and I think _also in life it's that it's full of surprise you don't know what to expect_ because usually, we used to see films where scenes are about bargaining _it's a good bargain that's how we're told to write scenes you know somebody wants something the other one wants something else and in the end, it won't out you know you will end up handing the thing so yeah that's what quality is in_ Host- "but this was very intimate and authentic and again it was erotic but there was a tremendous amount of restraint to the intimacy and you know (what was it like) to film to really capture the intimacy between the two of you to really feel it" A- for me I think _this scene embodies a lot of the program of the movie regarding quality_ and I must say that _as an actress have been like confronted to like sex scene like in some other movies and _*_it's always the same_*_ it's always very like the moment where you feel the most uncomfortable on the set ever_ because everyone is running with best shoots and stuff so because you don't have to stay naked anyway _but the problem is as much of the time the director of lack of ideas_ they are just like doing sex like *sacralized stuff* _they forget about humor they forget about imagination and about ideas_ which is not what we miss in this case, in this case, we have an idea that is also fun _so to me, it shelters me from everything because I'm not like alone_ like gesturing with my body in the frame you know it's just like Celine has an idea that would protect Noemie and me from being too naked in a way *so this is what collaboration is you know then, when you feel that- you're not alone you can there's really many things you can do now* _so I like the fact that it invent new images, that is something that is needed and also just simply joyful_ C- there was a whole part that was untouched for I mean I think a hundred and fifty years and there was this blue color on the wall that was just perfect and that's the paradox because in my previous film there were all kind of studios, there never was a fourth wall. N- what makes Celine a great actors director... I think is the fact that first, _she creates an environment, ...of kindness, respect, collaboration, horizontal Gaze from the beginning from the audition until the shooting until now, makes you capable to propose and surprise yourself as an actor and surprise her_ - and because _there is a circle of lead and as she says _*_it's all about collaboration, it's about no conflict_*_ not the actor is as to fit as an object as to fit in the vision of the direction it's more contentment and so full of surprises in for proposition_ I think that's what it makes her a good director Host- the last scene I'm sure you get asked this all the time A- *"And I never answer."*😂 Host- tell us about how you film that very last scene A- *well it's kind of a Secret*😎 I think I 'd prefer not to say what was happening why we were shooting this scene just because * it belongs to you *💖😍 C- *every love story has a score (music) in cinema or in life* but it was because of their constitution _I wanted to put you in the same state of mind and for you to _*_share the frustration that beauty is so unaccessible_*_ finding a book you're gonna read it three times and want to hear the music you have to go to church which explains to the success of religion_ I don't know if I can make that joke here but I just did 😅 _it's a matter of so being equal sharing the experience of these characters_ and also absolutely believing in the power of music in cinema and that is that _when it happens in the film you'll definitely connect to this idea_ Host- so _it's so riveting and mesmerizing you just totally get consumed and engrossed by the film_ but what kind of an _impact you hope that this movie like how do you hope it changes the dynamic but the way movies are made and embrace_? C- this movie is all about the *power of the gaze*; _ you look at the film but the film is also looking at you_ I hope that you feel looked at by the film _and in the end, I want you to leave the room thinking about yourself_ and also your love for cinema because _that's what this finest scene is all about_ - at first you are like Marianne, you think about Marianne watching Heloise but at some point, _you are in a theater seat, Adele is in the theater seat and _*_you're not watching Heloise you're watching Adele Haenel performing_*_ you're watching an actress you're watching cinema unveiling itself so that suddenly there is room for you there is you know for your own love stories for your own souvenir remembrance and so yeah I want you to leave the room full of the story but also full of your story_ A- *We're Proud for sure* but what Celine says I think it's _what matters the most I think is that you leave the room with maybe a different perspective on your own story or even just the time to think about this story in a different perspective so that's what success, I think it's more about *how deep it can touch you or move you this is what success is* it's not a matter of figure as a matter of how deep it comes for you _ N- we see so like a lot in the culture that is the patriarchal culture, the male gaze and I was not even noticing it before I read the script and I shot this movie and I share it- it's that _this is a new experience, this is new images, it's like the first portrait that Marianne did, which is the portrait stuck in the male gaze and this new portrait that she finds with this collaboration, this love story, this sorority (female friendship) moments in this movie she finds a portrait that looks like more than Heloise and look like more herself as an artist as a woman_ and I think this movie, the experience of this movie and why maybe a lot of people appreciate it because _maybe it looks like more them and that I've been missing_
"It's how we feel when we fall in love - we patiently hope that it's mutual, that it's building patiently. But inside, we are so impatient."
- Celine

I love how noemie is really connected in every interviews with adele and celine, shes really close to them. Unlike to any others interviews of her films shes really distant. Here, feels like shes home with them?
I agree, it's beautiful to see someone so serene and comfortable. I think they really managed to create among them the accepting environment of which they were talking so passionately about.
Chelin Sciama kind of did in this film what Sarah Waters does with her novels. A very generous act of love and giving back to women in all ages. I love them both. I adored this movie.
They may have been asked the same questions more than once but just listening to them and trying to intellectually answer the questions creatively makes me admire them more and English isn't even their first language but they gracefully sent the ideas and thoughts across. Brilliant artists and people.
Best of the decade.
Noémie Merlant's smile is everything.
0:18 yes more of that please, Adèle and Noémie ❤️
Mmmm i came here for that part XD
So gay😁🤗🤗🤗😍👏👏
Lol many reasons to watch this interview,...but at 0:18 was the HIGHLIGHT! 🤣🤣
I find Noemie so calm. Her beauty is different 😍
She is mesmerising.
19:29 Adele is such a badass.... I love herrrrrrrrrr ..... ADELENATION!
Noemie is beautiful😍
Best film of the year and one of my favourite films of the decade
beautiful film. without a doubt my favorite of 2019
back from the past when Adele was only 17, the way she express herself and the way she moves didnt change.. and so for Celine.. 😸 soooo cute.. and Noemie's smile is captivating making Adele to smile secretly...😍❤❤❤❤❤
Fave film of 2019, maybe even of all time... so exquisite
Obviously really disappointed with the changes at Collider. But SO pleased you're giving a platform to this amazing film. And great to hear one of the best directors of the last ten years talk about her work.
I absolutely adore this movie, two extremely gorgeous talented actresses and a very creative writer/director. This is by far one of the best films I have ever seen.
interviewer: do you know what rotten tomatoes is??
Adele: Nope... and then she's like "Of course who doesn't??"... She is sooooooo adorable. Just like a baby.
Minute?
the film and this trio is such a blessing... celine is amazing with her vision and her words and nomemie and adele were so brilliant with their characters. also they're the cutest people ever :')
‘What inspired me was to be inspiring’, Man this woman😂👏🏾👏🏾
minute plz!!!
6:52 shy Adèle is just so cuteee
Im just amazed how Adele and the director still get along, very mature. Apparently they had a romantic relationship years ago but they ended in good terms. Thanks for this movie to all three of them.
Finished watching it today and loved it. The ending where Heloise is at the theatre and vivaldi starts, wow. Going to watch it again with the missus.
i just want to tell you that this is not the first time I've been here, I just can't get over this movie
The amount of talent,beauty and intelligence that these women have is amazing.
the power of the "gays"
Gaze 😅
Gay-ze 😂
0:19 look at those hands, it's just the beginning of the video. And I feel gay already 😅
So true. Had to reply it cause it was cute
Shoul i hold your hand as they do. 😁
Sooooooooo deeply gay😀😀😀😍🤗♥️
What a wonderful love story at the end when she approaches the painting and see’s the book on her lap with her finger on page 28 my heart dropped still in love🏳️🌈❤️
Deborah DP that to me was the most beautiful moment of the whole film. Heloise's hand enveloped on her portrait of Marianne within her own portrait as a mark of eternal love - and the look on Marianne's face when she notices it. Just loved it. ❤️
i watched portrait 4 times in 36 hours :/
O my gosh
This film is about the female gaze, loving, natural caring for all - beautifully inspiring!
"For your own souvenir, your own remembrance", wow!
Loved the film it is a masterpiece Adele and Noemi are amazing ! Celine is a genius!!!
Noemie is strangely beautiful
Adele is beautifully strange
❤️
I’m late but Adèle’s outfit KILLS 🔥
“- where did you find this place to film this?
- as you mean...
- the location
- oh I thought the sex scene 🙂 We can really only talk about the sex scene 🤓”
You’re the best Céline! 🤣🤣🤣
When?
@@harleyquiinnnn around 16:40, but I suggest you watch the whole Q&A, it's more than just this moment that would make you pleased :)
@@anhtieu2118 now I already did, but thanks for the answer and the tip :)
uhm the version that i saw theres not sex scene just kisses...is theres one??
Marie this is a movie not a porno there wont be a literal sex scene 😂
I fall more and more in love with these three!
6:38, their interaction is so sweet!!
they are indeed suuuuuppper cute :3
The fact that a movie with NO explicit sex scene portrayed more passion that a film with one 10 minute sex scene & multiple others.... huh, maybe that’s what happens when lesbians write lesbian characters & a lesbian actress plays a lesbian. Who would’ve thought!
totallyyyyy agreeeeeeeeee!!! I rememberd someone saying "the movie is not excited enough not enough passioned sex scene" I was like,...they don't need explicit scene to burst out of love !!!
Great interview - I do wish I could see a French interview (with eng subtitles) to see them express their thoughts without a language barrier
Absolutely adore this film!!!
I really want to see this film, herd it's one of the best of year and will be added to the criterion collection
Beautiful complicity gaze between Céline and Noémie 9'51. What a lovely work these "womens" did together!
great interview. love Noemie's response at the end about how they feel about the success of the film.
Fortunately I found this after I saw the movie! Great insights.
7:48 Adele and Celine sharing a look. ❤
The interviewer was really good! Great questions.
This movie was so good. Simple but profound. So well made.
I don’t understand how many dislike this GOOD AND IMPORTANT content can have...I just don’t get it.
Enjoy it while it lasts.
Its not because of this video it is about the decision to cancel a bunch of other collider shows like movietalk, jedi council, live, heroes, etc
If you enjoy it that's great...but most collider fans don't give a toss about a bunch of Woke women talking about French movie...
@BrianManson ... “A bunch of woke french women talking about a french film”🤔🤔🤔 It’s a movie, a really good one, and that it’s all Collider admires. I’m a Star Wars fan myself but Collider is something that goes beyond those amazing shows and can enjoy other amazing films. Shows and screeners like this helps lesser known films to be recognize and those films don’t have the fault of what Collider decided to do with their shows, but with comments like yours, they are paying the price.
@@ann_stucchi it's currently grossed 3 million....most people dont want this content...this video has 4.4k views. If collider want to make content for the woke crowd fair enough...but it won't last long. Most people CLEARLY don't want this stuff.
The power of Gayze！
Celine is brilliant, and her choice not to have a score in the film was absolutely perfect. For me, it's what made the story even more real.
And what I love about this is just how meta the message of this movie is. It's about Marianne breaking free from conventions and restrictions of art and society to express herself as she is (the painting, and her love for Heloise), and it's also echoed in Celine choosing not to follow the conventional romantic period drama by not including a score. She did what she thought was true of the story telling, and it paid off tremendously.
There are long, uncomfortable silences where the characters are thinking and figuring themselves out. The realism of that would've been taken away with a score that would've filled those silences with swelling emotions of yearning, sadness, etc. Without the score, we were able to experience interactions for what they were without rose-tinted glasses, and that added to the intensity/tension between characters.
This isn't to say that having a score is wrong; comparing this to Carol, I wouldn't say Carol shouldn't have had a score. It was a different story told through a different lense. There was even less dialogue between the characters who were not as forthcoming as Marianne and Heloise, and the music was necessary to fill in the gaps about their emotions.
Celine had a unique story with a unique lense, and I think she did it great justice. I agree with all the choices she made
I love these women! I want more🥳🍾🥂
There needs to be a sequel where they get together forever
it will ruin the whole idea and story? even though we all would love that to happen, it's not going to.
There is a big possibility for that.. After 5 yrs perhaps 😍
@@august17breeze2 what.....did you even understood what happened in the film
@@orianteri who knows if the writer will change her mind and she will give a happy ending on the sequel. Maybe 5 yrs from now?
@@august17breeze2 yeah, i wish that could happen too but the possibility is slim
Beautiful film
Best movies of the decade
1. Mad Max Fury Road.
2. The Portrait of a Lady on Fire.
Jyotirmoy Deka I recommend:
- Predestination
- The Handmaiden
YESS
0:18 👀
I've noticed too. Kind of intimacy touch :) They are both gorgeous
@@apollonia33 Yes. I love their friendship here.
Great movie, amazing acting from the both of these wonderful actresses.
Wow, Adeele speaking whole sentences and how insightful! Too often we assume people from history don't share the same emotions, hopes and feelings that we do now. So yes, Celine had to make the characters real and nothing more, and let the story run
26:04
Noemie: MySpace?
Adele: Who knows? Just let him talk.
Postscript- 20 years pass . Heloise becomes a rich widow. She goes to Paris to commission a painting from Marianne’s shop. Their eyes meet. Marianne speaks. “You are the same, Beautiful.”
Come on girls, what are you waiting for?... The looks of each other are in a FIRE. Noemi magnificent actricce and soul. ^_^
Estar viva e apreciar uma arte tão linda como esse filme acalentou meu coração e está me deixando revirada há dias. Maravilhosas, muito grata, sem dúvidas o melhor filme que já vi
Wonderful movie, amazing women.
Enamorada de estás mujeres 😍😍😍
Pero más de Nohemí ❤️❤️😍😍😍
This was great. Good job everyone.
the “this is what collaboration is” hit
I’ve seen all the interviews of this movie, these interviews need to get creative. They all ask the same boring questions, I feel bad for these 3 that they have to repeat themselves several times. I recommend they give a look on Charlie’s Angels or Ocean 8 cast interviews and learn how to make the interview more fun and catchy for both them and us
And since it’s a French movie, I’d like it if we have these interviews in French, because speaking another language is like another you, you’ll use only words you know and the meanings won’t find their way to be expressed
Noemi and Adele didn't reherse together but studied the lines carefully instead. Adele basically said that creativity goes through the way how you say the lines. It's true!! how you deliver the lines says different stories. 💯
The dislikes ???!
They had a gay panic and accidentally pressed the dislike button.
bring back Movie Talk
YES!
beat movie ever，
I've seen other interviews without Noemie and Adele's behavior is totally normal. She looks totally quiet and relaxed. But if Noemie appears, Adèle loses control! 😂😂🙈
My favourite film of all time hands down
What a great interview! Thanks for sharing :)
Loving this trio so muuuuch! 🖤
20:25 but the film did have a score.
IT WAS ALL THE FIRE.
언니들 사랑해❤❤❤
감독님 손잡고 한국 와ㅠㅠ
Great interview and insights behind the scenes of this beautiful film, thanks!
just tell me it's not only my mind who hears gays instead of gaze... I mean the power of the gays or the power of the gaze... are they different tho.. js
Adèle looks like the older version of Billie Eilish.
Yes. As for Noemie, my Super crush, she is sometimes like Leighton Meester or ,depending on the lighting on the film, Shailene Woodley or Emma Watson.
@@Katrina-js7wt yea! Just realised that Adele seems to have Tourette's syndrome, which Billie has too! I think that makes them more attractive.
YES!
Gaze.. im loving the word...gaze.😂
I...we...I’m left handed too omg
Host- "you mentioned that this is a
_love story with equality_; which was such a beautiful description of this movie"
C- the movie is trying to
depart globally from the _narrative of conflict and the dramaturgy of conflict_ as it's a love
story between two women and _that is something that it wouldn't have happened if it was a woman and a man_ there is *no gender domination* but there is *also not any intellectual domination* and even though it's a relationship between also a model and an artist and you know usually we portray this with the kind of *power dynamic* and because I wrote it by myself decided _not to also push the buttons of _*_social hierarchy_*_ so we have a love dialogue in a creative dialogue that doesn't rely on the usual power dynamic that we used to, which is the dynamic of conflict_ it's also the
case for the _erotic scenes, they are not based on the eroticism of conflict_ what happens when you do that I mean it's *politically new* so _it's new imaginary so it's interesting but it also new it brings new tension in the room new emotional journey for you because it's full of surprises_ that's why lies inequality in fiction and I think _also in life it's that it's full of surprise you don't know what to expect_ because usually, we used to see films where scenes are about bargaining _it's a good bargain that's how we're told to write scenes you know somebody wants something the other one wants something else and in the end, it won't out you know you will end up handing the thing so yeah that's what quality is in_
Host- "but this was very intimate
and authentic and again it was erotic but there was a tremendous amount of restraint to the intimacy and you know (what was it like) to film to really capture the intimacy between the two of you to really feel it"
A- for me I think _this scene embodies a
lot of the program of the movie regarding quality_ and I must say that _as an actress have been like confronted to like sex scene like in some other movies and _*_it's always the same_*_ it's always very like the moment where you feel the most uncomfortable on the set ever_ because everyone is running with best shoots and stuff so because you don't have to stay naked anyway _but the problem is as much of the time the director of lack of ideas_ they are just like doing sex like *sacralized stuff* _they forget about humor they forget about imagination and about ideas_ which is not what we miss in this case, in this case, we have an idea that is also fun _so to me, it shelters me from everything because I'm not like alone_ like gesturing with my body in the frame you know it's just like Celine has an idea that would protect Noemie and me from being too naked in a way *so this is what collaboration is you know then, when you feel that- you're not alone you can there's really many things you can do now* _so I like the fact that it invent new images, that is something that is needed and also just simply joyful_
C- there was a whole part that was untouched for I mean I think a hundred and fifty years and there was this blue color on the wall that was just perfect and that's the paradox because in my previous film there were all kind of studios, there never was a fourth wall.
N- what makes Celine a
great actors director... I think is the fact that first, _she creates an environment, ...of kindness, respect, collaboration, horizontal Gaze from the beginning from the audition until the shooting until now, makes you capable to propose and surprise yourself as an actor and surprise her_ - and because _there is a circle of lead and as she says _*_it's all about collaboration, it's about no conflict_*_ not the actor is as to fit as an object as to fit in the vision of the direction it's more contentment and so full of surprises in for proposition_ I think that's what it makes her a good director
Host- the last scene I'm sure you get asked
this all the time
A- *"And I never answer."*😂
Host- tell us about how you film that very last scene
A- *well it's kind of a Secret*😎 I think I
'd prefer not to say what was happening why we were shooting this scene just because * it belongs to you *💖😍
C- *every love story has a score (music) in
cinema or in life* but it was because of their constitution _I wanted to put you in the same state of mind and for you to _*_share the frustration that beauty is so unaccessible_*_ finding a book you're gonna read it three times and want to hear the music you have to go to church which explains to the success of religion_ I don't know if I can make that joke here but I just did 😅 _it's a matter of so being equal sharing the experience of these characters_ and also absolutely believing in the power of music in cinema and that is that _when it happens in the film you'll definitely connect to this idea_
Host- so _it's so riveting and mesmerizing you
just totally get consumed and engrossed by the film_ but what kind of an
_impact you hope that this movie like how do you hope it changes the dynamic but the way movies are made and embrace_?
C- this movie is all about the *power of the gaze*; _ you look at the
film but the film is also looking at you_ I hope that you feel looked at by the film _and in the end, I want you to leave the room thinking about yourself_ and also your love for cinema because
_that's what this finest scene is all
about_ - at first you are like Marianne, you think about Marianne watching Heloise but at some point, _you are in a theater seat, Adele is in the
theater seat and _*_you're not watching Heloise you're watching Adele Haenel performing_*_ you're watching an actress you're watching cinema unveiling itself so that suddenly there is room for you there is you know for your own love stories for your own souvenir remembrance and so yeah I want you to leave the room full of the story but also full of your story_
A- *We're Proud for sure* but what Celine says I think it's _what matters the most I think is that you leave the room with maybe a different perspective on your own story or even just the time to think about this story in a different perspective so that's what success, I think it's more about *how deep it can touch you or move you this is what success is* it's not a matter of figure
as a matter of how deep it comes for you
_
N- we see so like a lot in the culture that is the patriarchal culture, the male gaze and I was not even noticing it before I read the script and I shot this movie and I share it- it's that _this is a new experience, this is new images, it's like the first portrait that Marianne did, which is the portrait stuck in the male gaze and this new portrait that she finds with this collaboration, this love story, this sorority (female friendship) moments in this movie she finds a portrait that looks like more than Heloise and look like more herself as an artist as a woman_ and I think this movie, the experience of this movie and why maybe a lot of people appreciate it because _maybe it looks like more them and that I've been missing_
