The promotion period of "M&M" is particularly long, probably because of the epidemic, many offline promotions have been moved online. I have done some text/video compilations that I have watched and generated to facilitate the gathering of interested friends. Understand (After sorting out the results for a long time, the whole article was emptied when I looked at the preview hyperlink. It’s really speechless...)
1. Text interview
In-depth Interview | The former Cannes prodigy in the 30s
This should be an earlier one published in Cannes in 2019. It was released by Gyro Film. It should be more about Dolan's own content. There is not much talk about "M&M". The original publication is LaPresse .
Xavier Dolan Has Gone to Cannes for 10 Years. It Hasn't Gotten Easier.
The New York Times interview, there is a translation in China: I don’t talk very detailed in Chinese, but I talk a lot about sexuality and the relationship between the characters in the film, and the gossip about straight men asking to sleep (I actually talked about this So interested)
20190530 COLLIDER interview slag turn
This is my own generated draft...I would rather suggest that you read the original text directly (.) The address is at the bottom. Mainly talked about the reason for the setting of Maxime's birthmark, as well as the performance of actors and characters during filming.
Interview translation for Xavier Dolan & Apartmento Magazine in Winter 2019
There is one place. Regarding overexposure, the original sentence is "I would scream at overexposed light". The context should mean that he hates overexposed light, not like it... This manuscript is very long... It's also very talkative. Miscellaneous, I have basically talked a little about all the films (mainly "M&M" and "Donovan"). My suggestion is to read the original text, but the magazine side did not share the electronic version of the original text. If possible, you can try Click to search and buy in TB...
20200825 "ID" interview Xavier Dolan: "I make films with my heart... so I've been a brat"
This article talks about the soundtrack and costumes, but it's not too much. In addition, it also mentions some things about streaming anxiety (then Warner put all the film online yesterday, and streaming anxiety makes sense. !)
This is what I can think of for the time being, certainly more than that, but some official accounts did not indicate the source of the foreign media, so they were not posted.
2. Compilation of two English video interviews
[Cooked Meat Translation] Xavier Dolan: About movies, soundtracks, actors, and reading reviews
This is an online interview conducted by Dolan during the home isolation period and a film festival in Lithuania in April this year: "Kino Pavasaris Išskirtinis Pokalbis Su Filmo". The length of the entire video is about 45 minutes. I talked a lot about it. An interview that I think is very meaningful. I think Dolan is a very suitable director for interviews, because as long as he asks questions, he basically hopes to give you the most detailed answer (that is, the video source is not very good, and many words can be heard. Too vague)
[Cooked Meat Interview] MUBI & Xavier Dolan: Matthias and Maxim, favorite director and Cannes
In the second half of this year, "M&M" will be available on MUBI. This is a short interview that MUBI did for Dolan. What is more surprising is that Dolan saw Apichatpong's film for the first time on MUBI.
It’s actually quite unexpected to sort it out because I think I watched quite a lot, but it doesn’t look much. Come up, if you have any omissions, please add it in the comment area, thank you)... It is a pity that many French videos promoted in France and Cannes have no subtitles and I can’t understand...
The following is a little personal thought: At first I thought it was unnecessary to organize this kind of interview, because as long as you want to find it, you can find it, but I also think that if it is more convenient, why not be more convenient (also because I am today Have time). Also, I often think that Dolan is a director who is too easy to be familiar with. Most people who have watched his movies can say that he is Oedipus and is obsessed with same-sex emotions, so that it is easy to ignore him. The change of thinking...So I think that instead of looking at a lot of public accounts about Dolan’s family and fame experience, guessing his character and thoughts, and regretting whether he is full of talents, it is better to look at what he says.
