- 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.
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.
Hope so he not so old like Scorsese or Ridley Scott so I hope at least for one movie in next 10 years))
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.
This guy along with Gaspar Noé would be my two choices for crazy but cool uncles
The last musical I have seen this provocative and amazing was All That Jazz from 1980... both surprisingly wonderful!
19:53 he’s so funny
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.
I. Fucking. Love. This. Weirdo. Creature.
Leos Carax est Dieu
Anyone knows the story of Edgar Allan Poe he is referring to?
I believe it's the Imp of the Perverse
A Descent into the Maëlstrom
@@danielzorrilla7433 Ah, good point too!
I belive its Morella
The Mael ( brothers) Strom
Ouch, that's a rough response to your first question.
First? Oof.
That girl works at Film Comment?
Yeah, why not?
@@veagacastro3045 It used to be a serious Film Magazine. At least 15-20 years ago.
@@sandorx4 Maybe you've just gotten old. 😂
@@lizardchild2004 Just listen to the level of her questions. 🙄
@@lizardchild2004 And it's not like she got the position due to her gender and wherever she comes from..
A translator was needed, he cannot express quite well.
He was perfectly fine.
@@stevelennon2388 Not really, it could be better.
English is his first language actutally. He just doesn't like these things very much.
@@sandorx4 I saw a conversation for Lorcano film festival he speaks french quite fluently, and I saw some other interviews in english but he pauses a lot. In this one, he didn't grasp the right words and it end up mumbling or just noises.
@@alrighwg Okay, genius.
