I had heard, that he really liked the film. He actually got very angry, when he had heard that some of the press had booed. He told a newspaper in spain, that it was wrong for them to boo, and that if they are going to boo, they should stick to reviewing bad movies. He also said that Sofia is one of his good friends, and that he loves her work. He said that she had told him, that she looked up to him, and that made his day. He was happy for them. :-D
I really don't understand why the movie was booed in Cannes. I saw it and enjoyed it as much as Sofia's first two films. I saw how disappointed she was when a journalist told her about the booes :-( . But then Kiki said 'Well, I liked the movie though, and I'm really proud!'. Yeah!! Anyway, I've also seen that Mops (Kiki's dog in the movie) won the "palme dog"!
^It was booed by only like 10 people who didn't see it. The french are very protective of MA and they also aren't fond of her...just like 9/11 to Americans. It's ours and we hate it. Just wait till that 9/11 movie come out, it'll cause a shitstorm.
:-) En tout cas, les DVD-philes français que nous sommes... sont royalement gâtés! Personnellement, j'ai déjà réservé l'édition (limitée?) collector - 2 disques - incluant "Lick the stars", le premier court-métrage de Sofia. Et à propos, Lucile, ne trouves-tu pas que Sofia Coppola a quelque chose de Isild Le Besco - plus spécialement dans le film intitulé "Backstage" - de Emmanuelle Bercot - avec Emmanuelle Seigner, Noémie Lvovsky,...
