Quote of the Day
"[At that time,] I had started to think about this project I had shelved right before the pandemic. It’s a genre film set in late 19th century France, but it feels like the most personal story I could tell in my life right now. The original source material is a short story, but I’m going to say that 80% will be completely made up. Writing it, I’m avid. I’m really excited. It’s playful and [the dialogue has] a lot of humour; the language that these people of literary society – or Les Lumières – were speaking in at the time. I’m drawing, painting – every shot is already described. I even went to the textile merchant the other day to buy fabric for the costumes. I aim to be shooting this in the summer or fall of 2025, which means it’ll be released in 2026. That would mean that it will have been eight years since the shoot of Matthias & Maxime – the span of the first chapter of my career. Eight years of making films, and eight years of not making any. I love that symmetry. "
Good news that Xavier Dolan is quitting his self-imposed "retirement" and getting to work on another movie -- I put retirement in quotes because he made a whole TV series during said retirement (and was about to start another one for HBO) but as fondly as he speaks of The Night Logan Woke Up he seems to not count it since it wasn't a movie. Indeed in this chat at i-D magazine he says a lot of self-indulgent nonsense but that's our Xavier; it's why we love him. (Or many have the exact opposite reaction.) Indeed the entire interview is about how one of his comments got blown up and ruined him -- and yet in the next breath he says he made that TV show and was about to make another one for HBO, so! His ruination isn't quite like everyone else's would be, it seems. All that aside we're happy he's going to make more movies and we're also happy he did another bratty-hot photoshoot (ahh to the real reason we care) and here is that, after the jump...

"Elordi and Calva, who broke out in 2022’s Babylon, develop a steamy sexual chemistry that includes several rich, emotional, and explicit love scenes. “He’s a real cool customer,” Elordi says of Calva. “We had a week of intensive [prep] in the motel room, and [the director] gave us a lot of freedom to run around and to play and to find that love within those four walls.”"
