  • He has been one of most celebrated young voices in cinema in recent years, winning critics and audiences over with his intense emotional characters. Perhaps the height of this was Mommy, his 4th film at Cannes, for which he won a jury prize in the main competition. But this year, his newest film, It's Only The End of The World, got roughed up at Cannes and is still without US distribution (though it was short-listed for Oscar Foreign Language). Dolan sits with David Poland and discusses his work, his passion, and his frustrations.
    Shot in Los Angeles, December 2016

    He´s so inteligent, so natural, so brilant! He´s 100% emotion and that is so beautiful!!! I love him!

    I appreciate Dolan not only for his respect for Marion Cotillard in this film, but also because he defends her
    characterization as being exactly what he wanted. She got much unsolicited and wrong criticism for her
    work in this movie at Cannes 2016, as if she (not the character) was having a nervous breakdown. Even
    VANITY FAIR got off the path on this issue. Christopher Nolan should have defended Cotillard over the
    "death scene" in that stupid BATMAN movie (it was his decision which take to use) but he never said
    anything and just left her to take the heat. Thanks for your loyalty, M. Dolan.

    As a person who wants to work in film, I admire Dolan so much. He's so breathtakingly talented and is so sure of his style and who he is as a filmmaker. Thank you for sharing this interview!

    @denissegarciacanom1236 Před 3 lety +4

    I know im five years late, but this is so far the best english speaking interview i have ever watched where the interviewer actually asks smart questions and manages to get him to open up in such humane and tender way (cuz there's always, you know, people telling him how of a genius he is and "admirng" his way of survivng the critics that seem to get more harsh each time). but you hardly hear him talk about how all that really affects him, and how he digests all that criticism to "milk" the good stuff out of it. He isn't my favorite director, tho Mommy and M&M really touched deep parts inside of me like almost no other film i've ever watched, but what i truly love about him is the way he transmits and speaks about himself, his art, his ideas and ultimately, the advice he gives to the new talent. Every time he speaks, he almost makes me feel like looking up to him

  • @joeyhan3795
    @joeyhan3795 Před 7 lety +4

    Too young to be weak and too struggling to be not scared...that's my feeling about one of my favorite director Dolan and I hope you can stay who you are and just be honest with all your emotion and ideas as always!

    Thanks for this long interview! This is realling interresting to get to know him better. I love the way he express his feelings. Now, I know that the film isn't available in the US, and I really don't understand why. As regards of the Oscars, this is unbelievable. I'm glad to had the possibility to watch it here, in France, with Xavier in the theater :)

  • @giodashorts
    @giodashorts Před 7 lety +10

    It's sad that this film won't be getting the proper distribution in the US. His next film was shot on 65mm, or so I believe (IMDB). And, as you said, an English speaking cast. Should be interesting.

    Won the Cesar this year for Best Director -- for this film.
    Also won the Grand Prix at Cannes after all the hammering
    by the press.

  • @seanlennon5986
    @seanlennon5986 Před 7 lety +2

    Interesting as usual. Lots of stuff to chew on here. Would like a bit more stuff on how he works and the work in general, although the personal stuff is fascinating, it tends to get a little repetitive after a while.

  • @EFDUP-o7s

    SPOILERSSSSSSSSSSSS: This movie is really great. The tension was really high with simple dialogue and good camera work. It's hard to find a Dolan piece without the subject of homosexuality and/or incest in it. Am I the only one who see's the straight signs of incest in this piece? Even Suzanne telling antoine he's "pretty" when he smiles at the last 20 minutes...
    Edit: I hadn't finished it :(

  • @petergallagher7762

      for It's Only the End of the World? No chance, even though I really liked the movie.

    • @petergallagher7762
      @petergallagher7762 Před 7 lety +3

      No, for his next project: The Death and Life of John F Donovan (with Jessica Chastain, Kit Harington, Nathalie Portman, Kathy Bates and Susan Sarandon). It will come out next fall!!

      Peter Gallagher and if he wins he would be the youngest winner at 27

    • @mcmanpa
      @mcmanpa Před 7 lety +1

      +Peter Gallagher I hope he isn't nominated for the Academy Awards because being nominated will most likely bring out the haters of his style of filmmaking. Already Dolan has been quoted as saying that shooting on "The Life and Death of John F. Donovan has been delayed because he was exhausted by the negative reaction many had at Cannes to "Juste La Fin Du Monde". Variety and the Hollywood Reporter were both unkind towards the film and are probably preparing to do another hatchet job on his work.

  • @Rocketscienceshorts
    @Rocketscienceshorts Před 7 lety +1

    the argument he makes about 9:33 mins in - is so valid and also representative of church, mostly black churches where you are told the histrionics have to come before the blessings and yes sometimes that is true, but to make that the rule for the change is somewhat superficial, and mostly false. thank you Xavier for bringing that point up about acting.
