Sunday Times has a great interview with the composer for Bel Ami, Lakshman Joseph de Saram. Here a small excerpt. Read the full article at the source HERE:
There are two visits to London, the first to meet the film’s two directors, Declan Donnellan and Nick Ormerod, to discuss “the tone” the music should take. The second visit is to attend the recording sessions of Joseph de Saram’s film score. The orchestra is assembled at Angel Studios and is composed of members of leading British orchestras. Both experiences – meeting the directors, meeting the musicians playing his music – are cruel tests of nerve. The completed, much revised, score is ready by December 2010.
The soundtrack is set to be released on March 20th: more info HERE
The European Film Market at the 62nd Berlinale was buzzing for Franco-American production The We and the I by Michel Gondry, pre-sold by the Parisian company Kinology. The new film by the director of Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind was filmed last year in New York in the Bronx, and follows high school students on the bus home on the last day of the school year. The film is a sort of study of group dynamics and the evolution of relationships as the bus gradually becomes emptier, and has been acquired in Berlin for several small territories, according toGrégoire Melin, who will unveil footage from the film a few weeks before Cannes, where he will also be counting on Cosmopolis by David Cronenberg, already pre-sold practically everywhere in the world.
@Susi_DuCranier was at the Berlin premiere of Bel Ami and was lucky enough to get the Thinking of Rob sign we posted HERE signed by Rob! Thanks for sending us the pic! Did you get yours signed? Or did you get a pic of Rob? We’d love to see them 😉
LA Times made a nice article with the answers that were given at the Press Conference in Berlin about Bel Ami:
A corrupt government –- supported by a corrupt media –- that seeks to invade an Arab country for its resources is how Declan Donnellan described his film adaptation of the 1885 Guy de Maupassant novel “Bel Ami,” which focuses on France’s complex relationship with Morocco.
But Donnellan and collaborator Nick Ormerod’s movie, which premieres Friday at the Berlin Film Festival, will get attention for a less geopolitical reason: It stars Robert Pattinson.
