Brady Corbet reminds the audience how special as a filmmaker Mia Hansen-Løve is.
Corbet, whose function “The Brutalist” is assumed to be a top challenger at Oscars 2025, said during a visit to Criterion in below video That Hansen-Løve is among the modern big times. Author/Director/Actor Corbet Co-led Hansen-Løves autobiographical 2014 film “Eden” together with colleague filmmaker Greta Gerwig.
“This one I actually have so I won’t take it,” Corbet said while I held a Blu-ray of Hansen-Løve’s 2021 movie “Bergman Island.” He added, “I just want to call out Mia Hansen-Løve, one of my favorite directors that I worked with years ago on a movie called ‘Eden.’ This is her movie “Bergman Island.” I encourage everyone to seek it because I think she is one of our great contemporary treasures.
Corbet further shared how much a trip to the criterion wardrobe means to him on a personal note.
“I am very, very grateful to be able to do this because many years ago, seven or eight years ago, my family and I had a fire where we lost most of our DVDs, books and such,” he said. “I just feel happy to be able to fill the account, so to speak.”
“The Brutalist” is nominated for best image, with Corbet nominated in the category Best Director, including Nods for the film. And Corbet is not the only filmmaker who is happy to remember that he worked with Hansen-Løve: Corbet’s “Eden” co-star Gerwig was originally set to reunite with Hansen-Løve on “Bergman Island.” Gerwig was thrown together with John Turturro and later, Owen Wilson, in an early iteration of the film. All three actors differed with the 2021 function due to scheduling conflicts.
Instead, “Bergman Island” was led by Vicky Krieps and Tim Roth, who play two writers/directors who create a movie in a movie; Mia Wasikowska and Anders Danielsen Lie are their surrogate characters, with Krieps as Hansen-Løve’s own efforts in the autofiction function.
Hansen-Løve told indifire That there really is no difference between reality and fiction, especially when it comes to depicting their own story on the screen.
“At the end there are only two pages,” Hansen-Løve said. “That’s what fiction is about for me: reveal who you are and who you are not at the same time; Who you can’t be, but who you are inside. There is a constant dialogue and excitement between the characters you invented, the official characters you create when you write a lot of personal movies and who you are in your everyday life. Sometimes you use fictional characters to do things that you can’t do in reality, to free up when you can’t release. It is also an escape in some way, and it helps you live, ready. And also faith. ”
