  • Director Leos Carax sat down with Film Comment’s Co-Deputy Editor Devika Girish, to discuss the making of his much-anticipated follow-up to 2012’s Holy Motors, Annette.
    A years-spanning musical melodrama drenched in greens and yellows, scored by oddball art-pop duo Sparks and based on their original story, Annette marks the French director’s first English-language film, which revolves around a celebrity couple in present-day Los Angeles. Henry (Adam Driver), a towering stand-up comedian, and Ann (Marion Cotillard), a world-famous singer, are living life happily in the spotlight until their world is upended after the birth of their first child, Annette, a mysterious little girl with a peculiar talent.
    Annette is now playing daily in our theaters. Get tickets: www.filmlinc.org/films/annette/

    ''I need this creature for my camera'' will forever be my favorite way a director describes wanting a certain actor in their film.

    Thanks to Devika Girish for being such a good and intelligent interviewer. Leos Carax is known for not liking this kind of exercise but the relevance of her questions and her benevolence made him feel confident to answer naturally.

    Henry McHenry has sympathy for the abyss, but Mr Carax seems to be drowning in it. This project took a lot out of him, and i feel his loss trough the screen having seen this movie three days in a row. I hope his spirit and ambition can heal peacefully a bit after this. Annette is beautiful and brilliant. If anyone can reunite Daft Punk with good purpose it's this magnificent bastard. That shit'd be better than phantom of the paradise, umbrellas of Cherbourg and Annette combined.

    The last musical I have seen this provocative and amazing was All That Jazz from 1980... both surprisingly wonderful!

    Note to interviewers: Do zero prep, ask stupid questions, be prepared to get nothing back. "In the short time we have together - let's talk about the movie you -didn't- make." Gah. Watch this to understand why he does so few interviews.
