science of sleep tidbits
Mexican Gael Garcia Bernal in just a few years of acting career on With several excellent films with different characteristics, he has been proud of the world cinema. Since being an amazing in "Love is a bitch" in 2000, this handsome Mexican guy Gail García Bernal has continuously created surprises in the film industry. From the erotic journey of "Your Mother Too" to the ambition of "Father Amaro's Sin", from the loneliness and passion of "Destructive Education" to the youthful surging of "Motorcycle Diary", from "The King" Perseverance and insidiousness go to the relaxed confusion in "Science Sleep". He is full of independence in his shyness, his personality with regret and determination in his wisdom, and the tension exuding talent in his gentleness, makes Bernal seem to have attracted the attention of people all over the world. At a young age, he has never shown shame to masters who fancy and believe in him. Since most of the films he starred in in the past contained complex psychological expressions, this time starring in a romantic comedy was undoubtedly a severe challenge and a breakthrough for Bernal. In the film, Bernal often wanders between dreams and reality, and his confused consciousness and confused eyes are shown on his slightly thin face. The degree of investment in the actor's state is quite demanding, and the use of the master-like surrealist lens in the film also promotes Bernal to be more free and casual in his performance. So I can try my best to get close to the romantic temperament and cozy atmosphere pursued by French movies. Director Michel Gunderley praised Bernal's performance, saying that Bernal's performance is definitely the highlight of the film. Bernal's age, temperament and appearance are in perfect harmony with the script. There is reason to believe that "Science Sleep" must be a creative masterpiece that can bring people endless aesthetic pleasure from both visual and artistic perspectives.

About the director: the creative way of dreaming wizards

At the Berlin International Film Festival held in the first half of this year, the film’s reflection immediately attracted widespread attention from inside and outside the industry. The film’s director, Michelle Gander, is a tribute. The 43-year-old new director was born in Versailles, France. It must be here. Gandree has been influenced by a strong artistic atmosphere since he was a child. Although in his slightly short ten-year director career, there are not many commendable film works. But his extraordinary imagination for big screen works and unique control over movies have been highly appreciated by fans and experts. Gandry’s grandfather was a brilliant inventor, probably due to genetic factors. Gandry’s mind seems to have been filled with a lot of fantastic inspirations since he was a child. The MV shorts he has shot are all unexpected. Creativity is as exciting and varied as a kaleidoscope. After officially setting foot in the film world, he soon gradually formed his own style within a few years. With his rich film skills, he has produced things that are difficult for others to capture: Although the 2001 "Humanity" on the surface is only a weird logic, its profound implication is that few people can do it. of. There is also the "Eternal Sunshine of the Beautiful Mind" two years ago, with superb acting in Jim Carey and Kate Winslet

Michel Gondry's confession

two The director of Charlie Kaufman’s original script, which is full of wild imaginations-"Nature" and "The Warmth with Light", French director Michel Gandry proved that he has enough to match the world's first-class The creativity and visual impact of the genius of the screenwriter. However, when he first took over the scripting work and wrote and directed "Science Sleep", he suffered from picky voices from all directions: Michelle Gandry will never be accepted by the film industry as a screenwriter. However, when Warner Independent Pictures bought the copyright of "Science Sleep" at the Sundance Film Festival for $6 million, Michelle Gander was finally relieved. In fact, it was Gander who left Charlie Kaufman. The self-release of the nerves that have been suppressed for a long time is an explanation of his uncontrollable desire for creation.

I have succeeded, but the honor does not belong to me

"Everyone regards "Nature" and "Natural Inner Light" as my representative works. I have no reason to refute this. However, the real vests of these two films are made by Charlie Kaufman. , I admit that this kind of statement has troubled me for a long time, and it has made me unable to let go of it for a long time, and even doubted my ability. To be honest, the experience of working with Charlie Kaufman makes me feel that I am just a proficient film. A technician, not a director—I can’t help feeling frustrated every time I think about this. However, these two films are indeed the most outstanding of all my works. They give me a very good starting point for my film journey, so , I really shouldn’t complain anymore. When filming "Science Sleep", without Charlie Kaufman by my side, I was a lot more comfortable, but there was also one less person to make good suggestions for you, so I can only rely on myself for everything. "

Charlie Kaufman is irreplaceable

" . " Charlie Kaufman is not only a movie wizard, but also the kind of master storyteller who can perfectly feed his wisdom back into the film. But between shooting, you may want to talk to someone An actor communicates, hoping to get the most direct response to perfect a certain scene. But I didn’t say it at that time. It’s like when you try to teach a child who is too naughty, the child’s mother always denies you by the side. , The result will definitely cause you to have no prestige in front of your children...I didn’t mean to criticize Charlie Kaufman. Now without him by his side to "point the country", I feel like standing naked in public. Not knowing what to do, Charlie Kaufman represents a certain sense of belonging. I have to overcome this confusion to make a decent film. But to be honest, I am ready to fail." The

story comes from my own body. experience

"When I got the idea of ​​making a film related to'dreams', I read many books about dreams, and from there I learned how the human brain works when dreaming. Moreover, I can remember since I was a child The things that happened in my dreams are just like obsessive-compulsive disorder. I keep forcing myself to remember what I dreamed of the day before...Of course, dreams have no root cause, so there is no need to take one of them. An interpretation, and what "Science Sleep" has to do is to find a reasonable way to string them into a story. For me, the dream I have had is to make the live material of the film. This approach is really not very scientific. , But it is full of human touch. This is the message I want to convey through the film. "

The performance of the actor can get a full mark.

" People may never guess what is going crazy in Charlotte Gansbu’s head. Thoughts, but she has the ability to soothe people’s hearts. The Stephanie she plays is a bit fragile and full of a certain mysterious atmosphere. Gail García Bernal is attracted by this quality in the film, even Her voice can make him so fascinated. From her, he found the feeling of home. Of course, there is also a physical attraction between them. I did not express it clearly in the film because it is a man and An indispensable bond between women."

Gal García Bernal is also one of the screenwriters.

"I met Gal García Bernal a year before filming started. "Science Sleep" The script of the film took shape as we talked and gradually got to know each other. With his help, I became more and more confident in this story. I have always believed that the emotional interaction between the director and the actors is for the film A very important thing, this is what I have been looking forward to for a long time. Stephanie was created by the two of us. After we discovered the commonality, we refined it to achieve this role... This kind of cooperative relationship sounds It's very complicated, but it's a matter of course."

He was ridiculed by the horse .

"Gail Garcia Bernal can be considered a senior jockey, but the horse used in the film is very irritable and can't calm down. As a last resort, the owner of the horse had to take his horse My wife took it to the set together. I didn’t expect this horse to be so “fearful”, and immediately became honest. But another trouble came afterwards: the young female horse who was “watching the fun” on the set seemed to disagree with the filming of the movie, and kept going. The horse hissing sounded like a harsh sarcasm... I bet that the horse must be mocking us for some reason."

The soundtrack is the soul of the film.

"I know I just want to be with In collaboration with Gene-Mike Bernard, the musician who created the original sound for "Nature" has an extraordinary hearing. As long as you sing a melody, he can always catch your intentions in the first place. Then I played it fluently on the piano... When creating the script for "Science Sleep", there was a note that could not dissipate for a long time in my mind. I sang this incoherent note softly, and Bernard enriched it. Into a perfect theme melody--this is the type of music I have always liked. As for the songs that we have equipped for the film, it is very retro. Gene-Mike Bernard also played a guest role, I thank you Him."

    The display of dreams and the hero's inability to distinguish between dreams and reality makes the middle of the film a little difficult to understand. The director's lens language and cutting lens still need to be tempered, but the portrayal of the male protagonist does show that kind of introverted, unconfident male protagonist, but longing for love and care. Even though there are many weaknesses in human nature, it is still cute
