Introduction to behind-the-scenes production in Paris

Fascination with the French New Wave When Christopher Honoré was growing up in a small town in Brittany, France, he believed that "for me, French cinema has always been Paris." Fascinated by New Wave directors Jean-Luc Godard and Fran?ois Truffaut, he had always wanted to make a film set in France. Honoré's first attempt, Fois Cécile Cassard (2002), is a surrealist work that tells the story of the heroine's reawakening of her sexual consciousness in the French countryside; and his second film The work, Ma Mère (2004), is adapted from the novel of the same name by French sociologist Bardeille. It involves incest, sexual confusion and many other sensitive and controversial contents, and is highly controversial. Finally, in the movie "Interior Paris", he realized his dream of shooting a movie for this romantic city, telling the story of how two brothers with very different temperaments but who are equally French learn to love, be strong, and face reality in life. If you like, you can think of it as a story about three men without a little girl. The actors who play this brother pair are Romain Darius and Louis Garrel. Perhaps this should be the most handsome pair in the movie. In The Same and Different, brother Paul has been broken up by his girlfriend (played by Joanna Price, who also starred in "My Mother") and is in the midst of grief. The younger brother Jonathan (Louis Garrel) is a romantic and can date several girls at the same time. In the film, the melancholy Paul performs two scenes brilliantly, perhaps the two best scenes on the big screen this year. There's one where he's lying alone in bed trying to sing to vent but completely forgetting the lyrics, and there's another where he's singing on the phone. For a long, long time, "Inside Paris" will remain a great book about love. When Honoré talked about the brothers, he once said: "First of all, we thought they should be completely different, but in fact they have many similarities. They are somewhat similar to each other, but they At different stages in their lives. Paul is the more mature of the two, although in the end, because of this maturity, Paul is able to see that his brother is making the same mistakes he has made before. . ” Atypical Hollywood story This is a freewheeling film that begins with a character (Jonathan) announcing to the camera: “I’m not the protagonist of the story, I’m the narrator,” while the lovers are When both ends of the phone are singing the same song, "Inside Paris" could be mistaken for a carefully choreographed work. However, it still touches us deep in our hearts, with director Honore accumulating sad emotions and suddenly becoming ecstatic: for example, Paul's immediate reaction after hearing Kim Wilde's song "Cambodia"; and How Jonathan uses all kinds of charm to attract girls and date them. It's clear that the film was most influenced by New Wave director Fran?ois Truffaut, and the character of Louis Garrel is reminiscent of a young Antoine Doinel. Perhaps the most enjoyable thing about this movie is that it is completely different from the typical Hollywood movie storyline. It's about the emotions and the relationship between the two brothers, their father and other people on their life's journey.
