(Bubble Palace) Pierre Cardins house, designed by famed
architect Antti Lovag in the village of Theoule-sur-Mer hosted
Raf Simons 2016 Cruise Collection for Dior on May 11. The groovy
night provided an overload of eye candy, from the clothes (metallic prints,
bouncy skirts and pointy lace-up boots) to the actresses (Marion Cotillard!
Dakota Fanning!) to the architecture and the dreamy Mediterranean view.
The presence of Cardin himself, who was seen embracing
Simons and chatting with Cotillard amid constant flashbulbs, was
a full circle fashion moment: Cardin got his start in the business
working for Christian Dior, a house now led by the 47-year-old
Belgian designer. Raf has personality, this boy, and talent it is

certain, Cardin told THR. He never copies anyone, and that is very
important. I have great admiration for him.
He wasnt the only one in awe of Simons cruise collection show, attended
by other stars such as Zoe Kravitz and Chiara Mastroianni. Raf is like an
architect playing with the Dior spirit, said Cotillard of the designer. The
more shows I see, you can tell how free he is with this magnificent house and
bringing his art as a designer but also as an architect and a poet.
A thrilling fireworks display provided a spectacular, poetic ending to
the show. Fashion aficionados stood in marvel, with unprompted shouts of
Jadore Dior! hurled toward the sparkling sea. Jadore indeed.

them, wrote Michael Caine in
his memoir Whats It All About?,
detailing a lunch on the Bay of Cannes
with Frank Sinatra on a ship leased by billionaire Kirk Kerkorian at a cost of $25,000
a day. Perhaps even smarter: Liz Taylor
received one as a gift from fifth (and later
sixth) husband Richard Burton.
For decades, the yachts of Cannes have
been the golden tickets, the places to be
and be seen. But not unlike everything
else on the Croisette, even these come with
their own distinct hierarchy. The boats
you want to be on are the ones behind the

Palais des Festivals, so people can literally


leave the movie and its right there, says
one regular. And while the bigger vessels those that actually require another
to get there offer a certain degree of
exclusivity, theres always the fear of being
stuck at sea and missing the red carpet, or
worse, losing an acquisition title to a rival.
Which means splurging on your own boat
may have certain practicalities, as Burton
detailed in his diary: It will cost $25,000$30,000 a year to run it. Not too bad when
one considers our last house (rented) cost
$10,000 a month plus approx $1,000 a week
for food and staff etc.! If we use it as much
as possible, we could actually save money.

EXECUTIVE SUITE

How many films are you involved with?


The first year was really about acquisitions.
We picked up international rights to James
Ponsoldts The End of the Tour, which premiered at Sundance in February, Daughter
of God, starring Keanu Reeves, and The Urge
with Pierce Brosnan. We have several strategic
partners. Cassian Elwes is one; we did Daughter
of God with him. Were handling The Tribes of
Palos Verdes for R2, Relativitys new specialty
division that is headed by Robbie Brenner, with
the idea to do a bigger deal with them. This
fall, we start shooting our own film, Barton &
Charlie, directed by Homelands Rupert Friend
and starring Emily Blunt.
What other in-house projects can you talk about?
We dont want to be just a sales company and
are getting involved at the script stage. We
have Eleven Missing Days, the story of when
Agatha Christie disappeared in her mid-30s.
Unfortunately, Paramount just announced
a similar movie, but we are way ahead of
them and are out to cast. Were doing a Barry
Sonnenfeld film thats a throwback to Get
Shorty. Hes a fantastic guy and we love him.
We also have a movie Scott Free is producing
and financing, but we cant talk about it yet.
Increasingly, foreign sales agents are having a
hard time bringing bigger projects to the markets

because they cant close talent deals. Is this killing


the business?
No. I recently had lunch with a buyer and he
asked me if such-and-such project would be
ready for Cannes. I told him, You know what,
f you. It doesnt work like that anymore. If a
movie is ready to go in the middle of summer,
the buyers better be ready to pick up the phone
and make a deal. The other thing we are doing
is not casting so much according to what buyers want. I just made an offer to Jean Dujardin.
He might not mean a thing to some buyers, but
I dont care. Hes the right creative choice.
Some of your colleagues are accused of saying
stars are attached when they really arent. Last
year, you sold a Nic Cage film, The Runner, at
Cannes, where there were at least three other
Cage projects being floated. Were some bogus?
Its my understanding that his manager sent
cease and desist letters to some companies.
Thats all Ill say.
How closely involved were you with Hurt Locker?
I sold it, but it was Nic [Chartiers] baby,
being the French cinephile that he is. I went
into his office and said, While youre off making The Hurt Locker, I want to make a Steven
Seagal movie. Two days later, he gave me a
Steven Seagal movie. We made eight movies

with him and two television series. Nic has


made money off two things: Hurt Locker and
Steven Seagal. (Laughs.)
What is the most inappropriate thing a male
colleague has ever said to you?
A group of buyers asked me to be a judge in a
kissing competition at dinner. When I realized
they were trying to sucker me into kissing each
one of them, I said, Um, no. But generally
speaking, I dont find much to complain about.
Everyone is friends with everyone, no matter
where you are from. I always wanted to work
in something international because of that. I
was thinking something along the lines of the
U.N. during college, but then spent my whole
last year being recruited by the CIA. I actually
went to Langley for three weeks.
What happened?
I arrive at Langley and am wearing a very chic
matching miniskirt and a jacket with faux fur.
Im smoking out front with my tall black boots
and there are all these women walking out
in polyester skirts from Ross Dress for Less,
and I thought, Im not sure Im going to fit in
here. I was fresh off the boat from Paris and it
didnt feel right. And no, Im not a CIA agent,
but I was drug-free my entire last year of university because of the interview process.

American University of Paris (she was
raised in the U.S. but her father was
French, so she has dual citizenship) when she
was recruited to work for the CIA. She went
through an accelerated interview process
but ended up back in Paris working for Haim

joined Paris-based Opening Distribution, officially embarking on a career as a foreign sales
agent. She moved to Los Angeles and spent
seven years working side by side with Nicolas
Chartier at Voltage Pictures, home of The
Hurt Locker, before running sales at Aldamisa.
In January 2014, she launched Fortitude

and Robert Ogden Barnum. On the eve of
Cannes, the 40-year-old foreign sales veteran
spoke with THR about Fortitudes Cannes slate
(expect at least two new high-profile projects)
and foray into production, revealing plans for a
film directed by Barry Sonnenfeld and a drama
about Agatha Christies brief disappearance in
1926 that Christine Jeffs (Sunshine Cleaning) is
circling to direct. De Barros, who is now handling QEDs slate to boot, also has a message
for foreign buyers: Stop being so obsessed with
A-list talent and go for story.

Distributor Toho-Towa, which handles


Universals films in Japan, declined multiple
requests for comment on the reason for the
postponement and would not even confirm the
release had been postponed.
One irony is that the thrust of protesters objections concerns scenes that do not
appear in the movie. There is no history
of cannibalism in Japanese culture, and
there is no mention of it in the book that the
film is based on, says Hiromichi Moteki,
head of the Society for the Dissemination of

that led the protests against Unbroken. This
film is stupid, fabricated and humiliating to
Japanesepeople.
In fact, the book, Unbroken: A World War II

by Laura Hillenbrand, contains a claim that
Japanese soldiers carried out acts of cannibalism on prisoners of war, but that did not make
it into Jolies film.

OPENING THE
GATES TO JAPAN

An ambitious initiative
launching at Cannes hopes to
draw more global filmmaking
to the Land of the Rising Sun

McConaughey (left) and


Watanabe star in the Cannes
entry The Sea of Trees, which
shot on location in Japan.

VER THE YEARS,

numerous programs
and organizations
have set out to open
gateways between Japan and
the rest of the world, many with
limited effect. But the realities
of a domestic market destined
to shrink in tandem with its
population appear finally to have
hit home. Along with measures
that have helped bring record
numbers of visitors to Japan and
encourage inbound and outbound
investment, authorities are driving
similar initiatives within the entertainment industry.
The Japan Day Project, set to
launch at Cannes, aims to create
international business opportunities across a range of Japanese
creative industries, including
licensing, co-productions and
feature location shooting. Three
days of seminars will introduce
the project to the global film business, after which it will visit the
Taipei Comic Exhibition, return
to Cannes for MIPCOM then head
to Tokyo. The project is overseen
by Kundo Koyama, screenwriter
of the 2009 foreign-language
Oscar winner Departures, who
also created the international
television hit Iron Chef and is an
accomplished novelist, essayist,
translator andlyricist.
Seminar speakers include
casting director and producer
Yoko Narahashi, who has been
instrumental in connecting Japan
with Hollywood, including introducing actor Ken Watanabe to the

Casting director

world in 2003s The Last Samurai.


Narahashi now also hopes to
help bring international productions to shoot in the Land of the
Rising Sun.
Even films set in Japan, such
as The Last Samurai and The
Wolverine (shot largely in New
Zealand and Australia, respectively), often dont get made
in the country. So many of my
[Hollywood] producer friends
love Japan but think its too
expensive and the red tape is too
restrictive, says Narahashi, who
notes that in reality, the cheaper
yen has brought prices down
and bureaucracy no longer is
ascumbersome.
But even Narahashi admits she
had 2013s Emperor a story
of the postwar occupation of
Japan that she produced, starring
Tommy Lee Jones as General
Douglas MacArthur shot in
New Zealand. One reason is the
age of buildings. Its hard to make
it look like something postwar:
If you go 180degrees in Japan,
youre bound to catch something
modern, she explains. The other
is the rebates, the tax incentives.
The Japanese government has
not introduced the cash-back

schemes for productions now


available in nearly every territory worldwide, but there are
whispers it might be inching in
thatdirection.
Lack of incentives notwithstanding, modern urban Japan is
difficult to re-create elsewhere,
and productions from 2006s
Babel, in which Narahashi cast
Rinko Kikuchi, to 2010s Resident
Evil: Afterlife have shot in Tokyo.
People are realizing Japans
not such a difficult place to
shoot, says Georgina Pope, head
of Twenty First City Productions,
which handled the Japanese
segments of Babel and Resident
Evil. Since the [2011] earthquake,
it has become a bit easier to get
permission. The authorities do
now understand the value of
Japan being seen abroad.
Meanwhile, even films set in
unique natural locations, such
as Gus Van Sants competition
entry The Sea of Trees, starring
Matthew McConaughey and
Watanabe, can find workarounds.
The story of two men who meet in
Japans infamous suicide forest
was shot both on location and
in Massachusetts, which offers
25percent rebates.
But a combination of Japan
being back on the global radar, its
cheaper currency and pre-Olympics buzz (Tokyo will host the
2020 Summer Games) is already
bringing more shoots to the country, according to Pope, who nonetheless notes, Some incentives
would definitely help. G.B.

particularly sensitive about reports of wartime atrocities. We have the full right to stop
[Unbroken] coming to Japan. There is freedom
of speech, but a film that contains claims like
this without verification shouldnt be permitted, says Moteki, who admits he has not seen
the movie. It is propaganda, like the propaganda about the Nanking Massacre. There was
no massacre there was not one single unlawful killing, he adds, referring to the sacking of
the Chinese capital by the Japanese Imperial
Army in 1937-38.
The Nanking Massacre is a bete noire of
Japanese nationalists and an ongoing source
of tension with China. The Flowers of War,
starring Christian Bale and directed by Zhang
Yimou, tells the tale of a group of Nanking
citizens who take refuge in a church from the
marauding Japanese army. That 2011 film
also failed to get a release in Japan, despite
Zhang being one of the most popular Chinese
directors there.
Extreme nationalists represent a small
minority of Japans population, but they
seem to have been emboldened by the current
government, which includes several leading
figures who share their view that the country
has been singled out unfairly for criticism of
its wartime actions. And though Abes April29
speech to a joint meeting of the U.S. Congress
the first by a Japanese leader was well
received for its expression of remorse over
World WarII, many in Asia believe he was
playing to the gallery.
Back in Japan, the government publicly has
rebuked media outlets critical of its policies
and stances, recently hauling producers from
public broadcaster NHK and private network TV Asahi before the Diet, the countrys
parliament, to explain the contents of their
programs. With most of Japans major TV
networks heavily involved in filmmaking, there
are concerns that overt and behind-the-scenes
pressure will trigger an avoidance of controversial or political topics.
Says Yoshi Yatabe, programming director
for the Tokyo International Film Festival,
The thing in Japan is, even if there is no
direct pressure from the government, producers may censor themselves by avoiding
tackling difficult issues.
Despite the
popularity in
Japan of

This is a movie that


doesnt defy the laws
of gravity, says
Miller of the return of
Mad Max.

Q&A DIRECTOR

George Miller

Mad Maxs return never was a sure


thing: But somehow the film overcame
9/11, Mel Gibsons departure and even
torrential rains in Australia By Gregg Kilday

How is Mad Max: Fury Road connected to the


previous three Mad Max movies? Do you consider it
a sequel, a reboot?
Its connected in spirit. Its kind of revisiting
a familiar place for me. The films are loosely
connected. Each one was made with different
impulses, and this is clearly a postapocalyptic
wasteland. The big attraction for me in these
stories is that they effectively look forward to
the past. Although were maybe 45 to 50 years
after some apocalypse, we are really going
back to the medieval Dark Ages in the same
way that the American Western allowed for
allegory figures playing out morality tales in a
landscape.
Given the concerns over global warming, does the
setting have even more resonance now?
The Road Warrior was triggered by the oil
crisis in the early 70s. In this case, the ground
rules with which all of us worked was the
notion that it all starts next Wednesday, when
all the bad things we see in the news come to
pass. And then we go 45 to 50 years into the
future. As the film evolved, youre kind of riffing off the zeitgeist. I remember going to the
Lake Palace hotel in Northern India. In the
70s, there was a great lake around this beautiful hotel. And we were there several years ago,
and there were elephants in the lake, which
had completely dried out, and kids playing
soccer in the lake, with the hotel stranded high
up on this little island. I remember people
talking about water wars, particularly in
Kashmir. Like California, Australia, where I
came from, although an island continent, is
for the most part desert. Growing up in an

isolated rural town, I was very aware of the


cycle of droughts and floods, so it was a natural thing to put in this story.
But then the production in Australia got rained out?
Thats the irony, isnt it? We were going to
shoot in Broken Hill, where we shot the other
Mad Max movies, out in the Outback of
Australia, flat, red earth. We built our roads
there, we built 200 vehicles, we rehearsed all
our stunts. And then it rained for the first time
in 15 years, and it rained big, and it became a
flower garden. We saw the budding of sprouts.
The great salt lakes in the center of Australia
were full of water. Warners said, Well, you
know, lets wait a year. So the cast and everybody stood down, and we waited 18 months,
and it didnt dry out, so we took everything
from the east coast of Australia to the west
coast of Africa, where it never rains.

Why did you choose Tom Hardy to take over


the role of Max?
He came up very early on in the process. Id
seen [Nicolas Winding Refns 2008 film]
Bronson and [the 2007 TV film] Stuart: A
Life Backwards, which he did with Benedict
Cumberbatch. I thought, Wow, he has some
ability, because they were such different characters. When he walked into the room, I felt
that same vibe Id felt three decades before,
when Mel first walked into the room, that
same charisma.

Youve been trying to make this movie for more


than 15 years. Did you ever feel like giving up on it?
And did you always know you wanted to pit Max
I think that happens all the time. Even I

Millers Odd Oeuvre

Q&A DIRECTOR

From road rage to dancing penguins, these films


highlight the directors versatility By Stephen Dalton

How much did you let the actors know ahead


of time about what you were going to put them
through physically?
We had that conversation. This is a movie that
doesnt defy the laws of gravity. There are no
flying humans or spacecraft, so everything had
to be done for real. Real people, real vehicles
and real desert. Also, action movies in which
there arent many words spoken, thats really
difficult for the actors. In a lot of these fantasy
movies, actors have to work against greenscreen, and thats difficult, but its a different
issue going out there and doing everything in
the real world. Its a mosaic art. There are no
big, extended master shots. Its all broken up
into little pieces. Its a very interrupted process
for the actors. They are out there in the grit
and the grime. Tom himself is very physically
adept; he was a rugby player and very athletic.
And Charlize, of course, was an accomplished
ballet dancer, and not only did she have that
special skill and athleticism, but dancers are
also incredibly disciplined.

Theron (left), as road warrior Imperator


Furiosa, on the set with Miller.

Given how much digital effects have developed


since the first Mad Max movies, do you have any
concern that audiences wont appreciate all the
physical effects you pull off in this movie?
I guess that is a concern. We put a lot of
effort into actually creating the patina of the
movie, the texture of everything wardrobe,
weapons, the vehicles to make them feel real.
Thats often something you cant achieve in
that world of CG. But my hope is that people
suspend disbelief and believe everything they
see. They dont have time to think about it.
I must confess, there is a stunt in which two
vehicles simultaneously go through a spectacular crash, and [cinematographer] Johnny
Seale was showing sections of the movie to the
Australian Cinematographers Society. And
there was one question about that particular
shot, how much of it was CG, and the fact is
none of it was CG. It was all real. So even if
the practiced eye of cinematographers cant

differentiate the two, you do worry a bit about


whether the effort will be appreciated by audiences. But I think cumulatively, moment by
moment, the audience thinks that its solid and
real in all its textures.
While you were developing this movie, the Fast and
the Furious movies were coming out. Did they up
the ante for the car stunts you were planning?
I saw some of the early ones, but by then I was
so busy working on my own films, you dont
have time to watch other films. This film was
basically written and pretty well-established
through storyboards quite a long time ago,
although it did have to go through modifications. But I was extremely aware of the fact
in the intervening three decades since the
early Mad Max movies, not only has the world
changed but cinema language changed. Its
getting faster. This movie has close to 2,700
cuts, whereas Road Warrior had 1,200. I saw
recently that the original Jurassic Park movie
had something like 950 shots, of which only 65
were CG shots. I
think the average blockbuster
movie has just
around 2,000 to
3,000 cuts in it, so
theres no question
were reading film
language much
more quickly
than we did in
the past simply
because audiences are growing
up on faster
music, faster
commercials.
Do you think stunt
performers should get Oscar consideration?
Ive never really thought about it. I know the
skill they have is extraordinary. We had 120
days of shooting, and every day was a big stunt
day. And we had no serious injuries at all. I
know how brilliant some of those people were.
But maybe that days gone by because so much
now is done digitally, youd have to differentiate very, very clearly.
Do you have any trepidation about premiering the
movie in front of a black-tie Cannes crowd?
I dont know. Ive been on Cannes juries twice,
so Im familiar enough with Cannes, but Ive
never shown a film there. I think the original Mad Max was shown there, but I never
attended. So I dont know about the blacktie audience. It wasnt suitable for opening
night, with all the dignitaries wearing all their
medallions, so its the next night. That should
be a more moviegoing audience.

Mad Max (1979)

A bloodthirsty mashup of Australian spaghetti Western and


postapocalyptic biker movie, Millers debut feature launched Mel
Gibsons screen career as the psychologically scarred road
warrior Max Rockatansky and set the stage for the franchise.

The Witches of Eastwick (1987)

Jack Nicholson shines as a sexually voracious Satan in Millers


Hollywood breakthrough movie, a rowdy adaptation of John
Updikes 1984 novel. Cher, Susan Sarandon and Michelle Pfeiffer
star as the witches who cant resist their new neighbors charms.

Lorenzos Oil (1992)

Millers most somber work is informed by his medical training.


Susan Sarandon and Nick Nolte play parents who defy doctors in a
bid to save their son from a rare disease. The film was a commercial
failure but earned rave reviews and Oscar nominations.

Babe: Pig in the City (1998)

Having produced the original in 1995, Miller got behind the camera
for this grittier sequel, in which the eponymous talking pig leaves
home for a scary adventure. Though less commercial than Babe,
the darkly comic urban fantasy still enjoys a cult following.

Happy Feet (2006)

Millers charming CGI-animated film about a penguin who saves


the world from disaster was voiced by an all-star cast including
Nicole Kidman, Hugh Jackman and Robin Williams. It became an
Oscar-winning worldwide hit and spawned Happy Feet Two in 2011.

surviving Thunderdome, the


reluctant warrior of modern
movies first and most memorable postapocalyptic action
fantasy series is back and ready for more
in Mad Max: Fury Road. George Miller has
directed only five films in all that time three
of which starred pigs and penguins but it
can safely be said that this madly entertaining
new action extravaganza kicks more ass, as
well as all other parts of the anatomy, than any
film ever made by a 70-year-old (and does so
far more skillfully than those turned out by
most young turks half his age).
Although the earlier entries were made
before the target audience for this one was
even born (its new leading man was just a baby
when the first one was released), Mad Max has
lingered in the zeitgeist through the years
and a portion of the international public that
has just wound down from Furious 7 will be
happy to suck in the fumes from this equally
action-packed and infinitely superior film.
One could plausibly observe that Fury Road
is basically The Road Warrior on a new generation of steroids, and no doubt some critics
will leave it at that. Like the second and best
film in the series, this one is mostly devoted
to maniacal anarchic goons chasing Max and
his small group of rebels across a scenically
parched desert and leaving some of the most
spectacularly destroyed vehicles ever seen in
their dust. The new movie certainly boasts a
higher percentage of flat-out amazing action

than any of its predecessors, and thats probably nuff said for most potential viewers. While
very similar to its predecessors in almost every
way, the new Mad Max flaunts devilishness in
its details: the tribal-style makeup, the endlessly inventive vehicles and armaments, the
wild costumes and facial adornments, the startling apparition of a harem of beauties in the
middle of the desert, radiantly arid locations
that go beyond the series previous wasteland
evocations and a society equally lawless but
more entrenched than those earlier seen.
And then theres the new leading actor,
Tom Hardy, whos so ideal a replacement for
Mel Gibson that one wouldnt want to imagine anyone else having taken over the role.
Rewatching the initial two installments today,
its striking to see how little Max Rockatansky
actually does during long stretches of them,
and so it is here. At the outset, hes captured
by soldiers of the Citadel and detained in a
rocky hellhole where thousands of wailing captives do slave labor while awaiting small doses
of precious water dispensed by their tyrannical
leader from his cliffside headquarters.
When the time comes to hit the road, Max,
his face confined behind a trident-like mask, is
strapped onto the front of a marauding car, a
predicament he is not expected to survive. But
emerge from it he does, of course, and slowly
the man behind the victim emerges, too first
to exciting then to touching effect; its as if
Hardy were cast for his brawn but ultimately
used for his soul.
Except for its mechanized details, the
THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER

D1_cannes_rev_madmax+miamadre_H.indd 1

chains, pulleys and steampunk/heavy-metal


aspects of which lend a certain 19th century
feel, the world on display here is straight out
of dire early Biblical times. Presiding over
the Citadel is the fearsome Immortan Joe
(Hugh Keays-Byrne, the nasty Toecutter in
Mad Max), who has grotesque offspring, sports
flowing gray locks and wears a toothsome facemask fed by large oxygen tubes. The slaves
are covered in ashen white powder and live in
a state of starvation and terror dispensed by
violent punks known as War Boys.
The story cooked up by Miller and
co-screenwriters Brendan McCarthy and
Nico Lathouris is no more complex than this:
Entrusted by Immortan Joe with driving the
large War Rig truck across the desert to an
oil-producing outpost, tough ruling-class babe
Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron, with
close-cropped hair and raccoon eyes) instead
diverts it across the desert with illicit cargo
Immortans handful of breeding wives,
who have memorable names such as Capable,
Cheedo the Fragile and, best of all, Toast the
Knowing. When first glimpsed, they look like
supermodels strewn across the desert for an
exotic fashion shoot, although one of them,
The Splendid Angharad (Rosie HuntingtonWhiteley), is due to give birth.
The first two Max features ran barely 90
minutes, and it takes guts and real confidence
to push a straight chase film with very little
dialogue to two hours. But Miller has pulled
it off by coming up with innumerable new
thematic and visual elements to keep the
action compelling: the pitiless mindset of a
brutish-minded society; poles sticking up from
vehicles that allow passengers atop them to be
lowered into enemy trucks for hand-to-hand
combat; an insane guitarist affixed to one of
the Citadels rigs; and a central woman, missing one arm, whos as tough-minded as any
man but also retains a special link to a remote
society of women she intends to find.
During the first extended, high-speed,
jaw-dropping chase of Furiosa by the goon
squad which only ends when its engulfed
by an enormous desert dust storm Max
remains frustrated by the chain linking
him to his tormentors rig. But developing
any trust with Furiosa takes considerably
longer; she wants to kill him immediately.
They are, it would seem, potential soul
mates, but the world they inhabit is not exactly
conducive to developing trust (much less
anything of a more amorous nature). Life is,
in this world, not only cheap but almost
assuredly very short.
If one wanted to map out a chronology of
Maxs life and adventures, it would no longer
make any sense in terms of the mans age, nor

does it matter. Miller recently absolved


himself of any need to explain the
characters newfound youthfulness by
comparing him to James Bond; Max just
goes, with perennial access to rejuvenation via new actors.
The difference between this and Bond
and many other such durable series is
that its so palpably the product of one
mans imagination a man who also
possesses the skill, discipline and energy
to put it all up on the screen convincingly. Mad Max films are known for the
moments when the cars superchargers
are engaged for surges of speed, and its
clear that Millers personal superchargers are in excellent working order. The
colors are bold; the Namibia locations
look like Arizona on steroids; virtually
all the action looks real (thoughts of
CGI intrude only with the massive
dust clouds and certain personal and
vehicular wipeouts); cinematographer
John Seales cameras are everywhere
they need to be to record the action
maximally; Junkie XLs score hammers
and soars. Second unit director and
stunt coordinator Guy Norris deserves
major credit for delivering much of
whats most eye-popping onscreen, and
the film never sits still for more than a
moment or two.
Originally, Miller spoke of filming a
sequel called Furiosa right after this one,
so presumably he has material more or
less ready to go, and Hardy has claimed
hes signed for three more installments.
In other words, the world may not have
heard the last from Mad Max.

Mia Madre

Italian director Nanni Moretti infuses a


typically understated, personal film with
a blend of wry humor and drama

by deborah young
IA MADRE, NA N N I MOR ET T IS N EW

film about a director shooting a movie


while her mother is dying in the hospital, shows the Italian filmmaker in a serious,
subdued mood, but is enlivened by the absurd
comic clash between actors Margherita Buy
and John Turturro. Setting aside the scornful
exuberance of his Berlusconi put-down The
Caiman and Vatican fantasy We Have a Pope, he
returns full circle to the autobiographical territory of his earlier work. Though it isnt moving
or cathartic in the same way as The Sons Room,
his movie about the loss of an adolescent
son (which won the Palme dOr at Cannes in
2001), Mia Madre shares with the earlier films
an absorbing intimacy in recounting a family
drama in all its hues and nuances. Simplicity
and maturity of vision are the virtues here,
though the result is perhaps a little too understated for major attention-grabbing.
Though the three-handed screenplay casts a
woman in the main role of the short-tempered,
self-absorbed, anxiety-ridden filmmaker, this is
flimsy masking for a story close to the directors heart: Moretti lost his own mother while
shooting We Have a Pope. On another level, the
movie serves as a clever reflection on artists
inability to separate their private lives from
their work; try as she may to play the hardnosed pro on set, Margherita (Buy) is swept
up in the emotional turmoil of moving out of
her boyfriends apartment and dealing with a
teenage daughter and a hospitalized mom.
All this inevitably boils over into the political
film shes making about factory workers
at odds with management. If there is any arc
or forward movement here, it regards her
increasing inability to isolate her film from her
personal circumstances.
Similarly, Margheritas brother, Giovanni,
finds he is no longer interested in his cushy job
at an engineering firm, and for better or worse
lets himself be engulfed by his mothers last

days. In this unflashy supporting role, Moretti


appears sagely mournful and resigned, if a
little one-note.
A certain familiarity with the directors
previous work is presumed, and Margherita
clearly carries on in the long line of his
onscreen alter egos. Veteran actress Buy,
working with Moretti for the third time, does
an excellent job imitating her directors on-set
fits, like a scene in which she flies into a rage
with her assistants for following her orders too
closely. Morettis noted political inclinations
also are sent up in the rhetorical anti-capitalist
movie she is making, which looks like something out of 1968. Its a film full of energy
and hope, she defensively tells her skeptical
mother, Ada (stage actress Giulia Lazzarini),
when she goes to visit her in the hospital.
Though elderly and frail, former school
teacher Ada is still sharp. Beloved by her students and doted on by her grown children, she
appears to have lived a full and satisfying life,
and there is nothing morbid or maudlin about
her illness.
That leaves room for a lot of comic interludes, and Mia Madre swings effortlessly
between Margherita and Giovannis anxiety at
their encroaching bereavement and the quietly
madcap enterprise of filmmaking. The key
player in this regard is Turturro in the role of
American star Barry Huggins. Margherita finds
him asleep at the airport, waiting for someone
to pick him up. Startled awake, he tells her
about his nightmare that Kevin Spacey was
trying to kill him. Almost every scene with him
is a treat and a reprieve from long, repetitive vigils at the hospital. Cast as the evil new
factory owner who intends to carry out mass
firings, Turturro plays along gamely.
Arnaldo Catinaris cinematography conveys
a feeling of airy simplicity without unnecessary
complications. No composer is credited, but
the music choices are unpredictable, from Nino
Rota and Arvo Part to Leonard Cohen and
Philip Glass.

a Texas family in
TreyEdward Shults
remarkable
debut feature
by sheri linden

R EY EDWA R D SH U LTS IS

hardly the first filmmaker


to use the all-American
Thanksgiving get-together to
expose family anxieties. But with
Krisha, his extraordinary debut
feature, he brings a bracing originality to a familiar setup. Taking
bold stylistic leaps and imbuing
the drama with a thriller edge,
Shults depicts holiday confrontations from the perspective of the
title character, a sixtysomething
woman returning to the fold with
a tattered suitcase and some
heavy emotional baggage. Krisha
Fairchilds lead performance
starts off as riveting and grows
ever more compelling as the brilliantly off-center story unwinds.
Winner of the grand jury prize
for narrative feature at SXSW,
the movie heralds a bright writing-directing talent in Shults and
showcases a formidable actor in
Fairchild, who until now has concentrated mainly on voice work.
Fairchild is the directors aunt,
and the cast also includes his
mother and grandmother, along
with friends and professional
actors. However the offscreen
bonds informed the film, Shults
creates a potent shorthand
for backstory, capturing an
in-the-moment energy as the
complex antihero steps into a
loaded situation.
If she existed on the page rather
than the screen, Krisha would be a
most unreliable narrator. Its clear
from the outset that shes a workin-progress hippie-ish but hardedged, an underlying struggle

propelling and distracting her.


Arriving on a suburban street of
Texas mini-mansions, a corner of
her skirt hanging out the truck
door, she reminds herself to keep
breathing and murmurs with
worry as she approaches her sisters house after first ringing the
wrong doorbell.
Within the bustling home of
Robyn (Robyn Fairchild), where
the relatives range in age from
an infant to the womens elderly
mother (Billie Fairchild), relationships gradually come into focus.
Key among them for Krisha is her
strained connection with her son.
Well played by the director, Trey
is adamantly closed off to her,
especially when she tries to bridge
the gap.
But even among those who greet
her warmly, its clear that this is
a conditional welcome. Shults
screenplay wisely refrains from
detailing Krishas struggles with
addiction, instead revealing all
thats necessary in her behavior.
Even when she and her sister
address the matter directly in a
powerfully played scene, Shults
never indulges in therapy-speak;
whether angry, sorrowful, deceitful
or confessional, each word is alive,
not designed to deliver a message.
From her bandaged, mysteriously damaged finger to the
lockbox stocked with prescription
pills, everything about Krisha
speaks of dances with danger and
the ongoing work of preventing
another such pas de deux. In
Fairchilds nuanced portrayal,
doubt and fear cloud Krishas

eyes. She makes the pain behind


her characters every forced smile
deeply felt, but also the inner
strength that she can access only
intermittently.
Shooting in the filmmakers
parents house in Montgomery,
Texas, Shults and cinematographer Drew Daniels have put
the space to eloquent use the
two-story living area in particular,
with the RED camera making
360-degree sweeps as Krisha takes
in the activity around her. Shults
has a feel for the false notes in the
sometimes overemphatic fun. The
tension mounts as cousins wrestle,
Grandma recalls her mothers
cruelties and insecurities, and a
young married couple tease each
other about sex.
Krishas isolation amid the noise
is both poignant and threatening.
The creeping dread is heightened
by Tim Rakoczys sound design
and the strings-and-digital score
by Brian McOmber, which stands
front and center with the dynamic

visuals. Two shifts in aspect


ratio (from standard 1:85 to 2:35
widescreen, and finally to 1:33),
though organically executed, are
unnecessary. The performances
and fluent camerawork require
no such changes in the frame to
convey the sense of a world closing
in on Krisha.
As he sharpens the doubleedged sword of family, Shults also
uses humor to pierce the surface.
While one of Krishas brothersin-law (Chris Doubek) keeps a
benign distance, consumed with
his seemingly endless gadget woes,
the other, played by a superbly
mordant Bill Wise, shifts from
irreverent humor to outright belligerence. His caustic comments
are not without sound observations, but the viewer is in Krishas
corner, however unconvincing she
might be when she says that shes
working on becoming a more
spiritual person.
The story eventually will draw
the viewer outside Krishas
perspective, but the beauty of
the film is that its compassion
deepens along with its very real
sense of horror compassion not
just for Krisha but for those who
still love her or have given
up on trying. You are heartbreak
incarnate, one character
tells her, and words that are at
first off-putting soon inspire
sympathy. The audience, too,
is among those left heartbroken
in Krishas wake.

The Grief of Others

Patrick Wangs second feature, an adaptation of a Leah Hager Cohen novel about a family going
through tough times, is intimate and impressively observed if not fully satisfying by boyd van hoeij

AT R ICK WA NGS DEBU T F E AT U R E , IN THE FAMILY, WA S

a minutely observed, deceptively straightforward and finally


deeply moving story of a gay father and his nonbiological
son who have to fight to stay together. It should thus come as
no surprise that Wang would be interested in adapting The
Grief of Others, Leah Hager Cohens novel about a family slowly coming
to the realization that they need to fight to stay together after the death
of a newborn hits them like a bomb.
A step up in terms of complexity with more subplots, a larger cast of
protagonists to juggle, less instantly sympathetic characters and no evident cause to rally behind this drama again offers many quiet, often
character-driven rewards. Still, the film struggles to become larger than
the sum of its parts. After a SXSW competition slot in March, the movie
has its international premiere on the Croisette in the ACID sidebar.
In terms of distribution, The Grief of Others comes with one major

advantage: It clocks in at less than 105 minutes long, while In the Family
was almost three hours. But without any star power, this realistic,
unpretentious drama will remain a tough sell for all but the most passionate boutique distributors.
John and Ricky Ryrie (Trevor St. John and Wendy Moniz) live
with their two kids, the somewhat heavyset 13-year-old Paul (Jeremy
Shinder) and his younger sister, Biscuit (Oona Laurence), in a small
town on the Hudson. At first they seem like a pretty regular clan, but
odd details being to accumulate, starting when a handsome 19-yearold (Mike Faist) has to fish Biscuit out of the river and take her home
(its not immediately clear how she ended up in the Hudson in the first
place, though audiences already know shes been skipping school).

Her older brother is ruthlessly bullied by his peers and tries to compensate with a wiseass attitude. Yet, somewhat oddly, the kids troubles
seem to never really penetrate the haze in which John and Ricky appear
to be living. Not only are they too busy with work and trying to making
ends meet, theyre also nurturing wounds from the almost immediate
loss of their newborn, a tragedy that transpired not long before the
story starts. To complicate matters even further, the family dynamics
are upset by the arrival of the essentially decent Jess (Sonya Harum),
Johns daughter from a previous marriage, whos pregnant herself and
wholl be staying with her father and his new family until her own little
one is born.
Wangs background in theater is visible in the way he sets up most of
his shots, which tend to be long, mostly static and give characters quite
a lot of room. Its also evident in the way that the essence of almost
every scene is derived from the situation and the actors, but rarely the
camerawork (the film has been shot
market somewhat perfunctorily on 16mm by
title cinematographer Frank Barrera).
Indeed, Wangs realism is much
closer to 19th century literary giants
obsessed with daily life and family
relationships, like Chekhov and
Ibsen, than the work of other neo-realist directors such as Belgiums
Dardenne brothers. A few conspicuous moments in which Wang uses
superimposed images only underline
how unshowy the rest of the film is
from a technical point of view.
Editor Elwaldo Baptistes cutting
is equally unobtrusive, though the
overarching story structure is neither
linear nor entirely smooth. The
storys main conflict slowly comes
to a boil with a horrible discovery,
shown in a drawn-out flashback, that
puts a real strain on the relationship
between John and Ricky, as well as
on the bonds they have with their offspring. By inserting it as a flashback,
the director suggests that this pivotal
past event might be both a cause
and a result of the familys fears and
insecurities.
Minutely observing the dynamics

works wonders, especially with the
adult actors (St. John was Wangs co-star in In the Family). Some of
their best work is showcased in small throwaway scenes, such as when
Monizs character calls her own father, supposedly to ask him about a
completely irrelevant story from her youth but really to reassure herself
that shes still part of a family and capable of being loved.
Though the sets are intentionally somewhat drab and very
basic, the rare use of color especially red connects certain key
scenes visually.

I Am the People

Cairo-raised French filmmaker Anna Roussillons absorbing doc


examines rural life in post-Mubarak Egypt by clarence tsui

H E T I T L E OF A N NA ROUSSI L L ONS I AM THE PEOPLE IS

is taken from an anthem often heard during the demonstrations


that brought Hosni Mubaraks 30-year dictatorship over
Egypt to an end in February 2011. But this is hardly an in-your-face,
pro-revolution documentary a la The Square. Set in an Egyptian village
far from the bustle of Cairo, the two-hour film shows its interviewees
fretting more about their irrigation systems and pregnant wives than
ideological struggles and political emancipation.
Shunning the insurrection and intrigue unfolding in the capital,
the French filmmaker has elected to cast her gaze on ordinary people
instead. The resulting documentary may have a legacy years from now
as an engaging and revealing account of how the masses could, and
would, fluctuate between apathy and awakening during tumultuous
political times.
Just as it depicts tremors in the capital filtering slowly out into
Egypts geographical margins, I Am the People also has enjoyed a
gradual rise to prominence. After scooping up top prizes in some
lower-profile European festivals last fall, the film gathered momentum
recently with a win in the Hong Kong International Film Festivals
documentary competition.

The success of I Am the People is thanks in large part to Roussillons


refusal to paint her protagonists as exotic country bumpkins. These
are people who know whats going on but are too jaded to realize that
little changes in the center of Egypt could matter to them as they tend
to everyday matters of work and family setting up a flour-making
workshop, attending to a wifes pregnancy.
Through deft editing of the plentiful footage she has accumulated
over three years, Roussillon has provided a vivid, alternative vision of
life in Egypt beyond the medias representation of the country during
the Arab Spring. Even more impressively, she has succeeded in teasing
out the humor amid all the furor and fatalism via moments of deadpan
comedy sprinkled throughout this sad chronicle of a failed revolution.

8 Decades of The Hollywood Reporter


The most glamorous and memorable moments from a storied history

From left: In 2008,


Wolinski, Cabu and
Cavanna went to Cannes
with the Charlie Hebdo
doc Its Hard Being
Loved by Jerks. The film
was in competition for
the Camera dOr.
Wolinski and Cabu were
killed Jan. 7 in the
Charlie Hebdo offices.

In 1960, Melvin Van Peebles,


who would go on to direct 1971s
Sweet Sweetbacks Baadasssss
Song, joined the staff of Hara-Kiri,
which became known as Charlie
Hebdo seven years after his
departure. Van Peebles, now 82,
fondly remembers his time there
with illustrator Georges Wolinski,
who died along with 11 others
during the Jan. 7 terrorist attack
on the magazines Paris offices.

N R ET ROSPECT, I H AV E

Chester Himes to thank


for introducing me to
Hara-Kiri. I was working
as a reporter for a local French
newspaper. My boss had sent me
out to interview the author of
a new award-winning detective

novel, and I traveled the streets


of France to find him. When
I knocked on the door, I was
greeted with: A black guy, hmm?
Im expecting a reporter. He told
me to go away. I told him I was the
reporter. The man standing at the
doorway was Chester Himes, and
though circumstances may not
have called for it then, we became
instant friends.
It was through Chester that I
learned of a startup magazine
looking for a writer, and it was
there that I met the guys (eight
of us in all) who would grow to
become like family among them
[Georges] Wolinski, [Georges]
Bernier, [Francois] Cavanna and
[Roland] Topor. Every Thursday,
we would get together, sit around

a pool table and have dinner


over conversations about what
would be on the pages of HaraKiri that month. At one of these
sessions, Wolinski and I came up
with the idea of turning Chester
Himes A Rage in Harlem into a
monthly comic feature. I translated Chesters writing and helped
Wolinski, who had never stepped
foot in America, draw an accurate
portrait of Harlem. We spent our
time bouncing more goofy ideas
off of each other, pulling tricks
and just laughing back and forth.
Hara-Kiri never had a political
agenda, but we were always raising

hell doing something a little too


rough for the government. There
was that time the presidents nose
was drawn too long or the Virgin
Mary was drawn wearing a pair
of slacks. Censors would stop us
from selling the magazine for that
designated month. Long after
Id left my writing post at HaraKiri in 1963 to pursue a career in
cinema, they changed the name to
Charlie Hebdo, but the paper has
remained the same. At the heart
of it is just one big, happy family
being foolish and having a little bit
of fun. MELVIN VAN PEEBLES, AS TOLD
