Quotes of the Day : Christopher Smith & Teophilius London

19 juin 2011


"Prenez un film comme Irréversible, de Gaspar Noé : la construction narrative est passionnante. Bizarrement, j'accroche moins à Enter The Void : j'adore pendant pendant 1H40, notamment quand on suit le mec de dos. C'est génial.

Puis, je décroche quand la caméra flotte au-dessus de Tokyo. Les mouvements de caméra répétés jusqu'à l'épuisement, ça va quelques minutes. Sur une heure, c'est indigeste. Mais ce n'est pas à moi de dire ce que Gaspar Noé aurait dû faire : c'est lui l'artiste sur ce coup !" (source)

Theophilus London :

"Yeah, I did watch [Enter the Void] during the recording process, and then I kept talking about it, and in a matter of two weeks I became good friends with the two leading actors in the film, Nathan Brown and Paz de la Huerta. That was kind of surreal. I started going to clubs with them, doing psychedelics with them, and then all of a sudden I shot my video [for “Last Name London” with Mr. Brown as producer]. [One night] he was like, “Yo, Gaspar’s out with us at a bar, do you want to hang out with us?” I turned the offer down. I just don’t want to sit down and be bro with him and have a beer with him. I just want to idolize him, as a director." (source)
