CAEN-KAN ON AZURE COAST.
CAEN-KAN ON AZURE COAST.
Nicole Kidman and Evan McGregor became pop singers.
The day before yesterday in the evening, to greater delight of thousand gapers and hundreds
Tele-and the press photographers who have filled spaces before
The Cannes Palace of festivals, on the well-known Red ladder
Dancers of a cabaret, with the put squeal have jumped out
Dancing a cancan. According to principles
Political correctnesses they were the different nations and colours of a skin. Generally
On the Red Cannes ladder it is accepted to go grandly. Even photographers,
Removing on a ladder of stars, and those are obliged to carry the stuffy black
Tuxedos with butterflies. But occurrence of dancers lifting up foot was
Defensible.
As the headings flashing now in the world are defensible also
To press: everywhere puns of type Cannes-can that is read as
"Cancan". The matter is that at festival opening has been shown
Long-awaited musical Beza Lurmanna "Mulen Ruzh", in which Nicole
Kidman and Evan McGregor sing the voices -
sverhprofessionalno, is not worse than decent pop singers. Though action
Occurs ostensibly in Paris as if in 1900, they sing songs
"Beatles", "Kvin", Eltona John, the Madonna etc. It has turned out, as
Director Lurmann, "soundtrack of your dream" has noticed.
Already after "kankanshchits", to even bolshej pleasures of public, on
To ladder have appeared Kidman and McGregor: it above it (however, on
Very tall heels), it from girls-friends and a short hairstyle,
Similar not on the macho with signs intellektualizma on the person (what
It in last films, switching on "Mulen Ruzh"), and on shpanu with
The London stadiums. In the afternoon at press conference (Kidman was in
The long narrow dress underlining its wasp waist and firmenno
The white skin) actors-stars was eclipsed by director Lurmann. As
It was found out, it not only the master of hooligan imaginations on subjects
The past and classics (to "Mulen Ruzh" it has shot a film "Romeo +
Juliette William Shakespeare ", in which Romeo - Dee Kaprio scorched from
Automatic pistol), but also the big fan of to listen. Being, as well as
Kidman, the Australian, he argued on features of the Australian
Cinema and so forth On ladder Kidman has recouped. Contrary to the report that
And business in different places ran up to crying out public - distributed
Autographs and even as president Gorbachev is no time, shook
Stretched to it in entreaty (allow to touch!) tens hands.
The film, certainly, is not enough on what is similar, but leaves
poslevkusie the dual. Lurmann assures, that it is made in
"To an aesthetics of a red curtain" - conditionally dramatized manner, in
Which films with participation of "great stars" became 40-50th years, in
Marlene Dietrich's particulars. But in a reality it shamelessly -
Postmodernist mix of all and all. Paris the beginnings of the century all
The computer: it simultaneously fantastic and parody, reminds
Theatrical back. In him from the sky are regularly strewed miriady mjuzik
-hollnyh stars-spangles. "Mulen Ruzh" 1900 in which sings and
Dances acid Toulouse-Lotrek, it is similar to the most up-to-date night
Techno-clubs with supermashineriej. McGregor, however, plays not Toulouse
-Lotreka, and the naive young man-poet, which, as Orfej in a hell,
Goes down on this bohemian bottom to find love. Also finds,
Having fallen in love with heroine Kidman - the most known courtesan of Paris.
Further plots of a century XIX start to mix up already, recollect
And "Bohemia", and "the Lady with camellias" (the heroine what it is declared
In advance, tragically dies from a consumption). But thus heroes all
Equally continue to express with phrases from pop smash hits on subjects
The love, composed in a century XX, even during those rare moments, when
Speak prose ("All I need is love!" - McGregor words shouts
Lennon - McCartney).
Pluses in "Mulen Ruzhe" three. The first: the other-wordly director's
Imagination (though superfast installation to which gives in even
Channel MTV installation, sometimes tyres). The second: from a farce and a parody
Suddenly the history of really tragical love grows.
The third: two-three improbable scenes, in particular, during the moment
The tragical culmination, amazingly effective - and I will write -
"Clip" when heroes execute the well-known minirequiem of group
"Kvin" Show must go on. Minuses: neslazhennost a plot and times
Too pompous emotionality leaving with the indifferent.
I will note also coldness Kidman, which drama scenes
Go right where better both love, and parody.
From yesterday regular viewings, and festival have begun
Has caught a rhythm. Sokurov's "Taurus" will be shown almost under a curtain, in
The end of the next week. It is a sign good: leaves, that
Organizers of festival carry Sokurov to favourites.
P. S. At opening ceremony of festival which was conducted by Charlotte
Rempling, along with Andy MacDowell, Letitsiej the Caste, Frensisom
Ford Coppola lighted also Nikita Mikhalkov. And after all once
Said, that in Cannes where him have offended, it is more a foot.
* * * While things are being decided, while star bodies rose on
Red carpet path, behind the scenes lived the life: protection,
Visitors, journalists, organizers had a drink champagne, and anybody at
It did not shout, was not nervous - all grandly and easy, as on
Funeral. Behind it here nordicheskim calmness and behind the bright
Titanic work costs a wrapper of a holiday of a life. Still, after all
Preparation for festival has begun about 7 months ago. Also that
Occurs there, in a lobby, not to everyone it is appreciable. And it is a pity.
Impresses. Here at least:
- Only in one hotel "п п п?п я я п п " for 12 days of festival the chief -
The cook will prepare about 24 000 dishes;
- In parallel with display of films there is a brisk trade
Film production: the huge film market which we do not see;
- In this market for days of festival should visit not
Less than 20 000 film professionals, 4000 journalists, 800 technicians and
Engineers, electricians, adjusters and other ljuda.
And to take all the same "Mazhestik": here, in this luxury, where
Number a day costs 50 000 francs, where plasma TVs and
Plasma panels to them where since morning till the night it is possible to ask that
It is necessary, here about stars know much. That:
- Katrin Deneuve takes only numbers in pastel tones with
Smart kind from a window also demands always in number bouquets of the white
Colours;
- Dzhessika Lanzh hates flowers (at it on them
Allergy);
- Kim Bejsinger asks to cook lentil in mineral water;
- Klaudia SHiffer washes hair in "Evian", plus to all it
The vegetarian;
- Gerard Deparde not the vegetarian by no means, but eats often on
Fast hand, but always with a wine glass;
- This year two magnificent numbers (500 square metres)
Are reserved Letisiej the Caste and Silvestrom Stallone (everyone
Will be in the, certainly).
"We know all about stars - so parlourmaids categorically speak and
Other attendants of three smartest hotels in
Cannes. - we know, that they eat, what books read, what
Medicines drink and that carry ". However to tell about all it not
Hurry up. Though journalists insist. Very much insist. Cannes -
It not only and is even not so much cinema. Cannes are first of all
The paparazzi. Soon and about Nicole Kidman we will know all. Even that,
That she yet does not know about herself.
