Elsa Keslassy International CorrespondentJuliette Binoche (“The English Patient”) and Vincent Lindon (“Titane”) who starred for the first time together in Claire Denis’s “Both Sides of the Blade” said the experience was emotionally draining at the Berlinale press conference.
The highly anticipated film, which was acquired by IFC Films ahead of the festival, is world premiering in competition on Saturday evening.
Binoche had strong words to describe her experience filming the movie which revolves around a tumultuous love relationship disintegrating. “It was very difficult to do these scenes, they worked us more than we worked them, and they even ate us up inside, but we did with courage, with fury,” said Binoche, referring to the title of the book, “Avec amour et acharnement” by Christine Angot, who co-wrote the script with Denis.
Binoche said the film depicts a “rollercoaster of emotions” and the “visceral” attachment one can have for a lover and how it can “tear you appart” when you go through this heartache. “I think we’ve been brave to make this film because the subject is extremely difficult and I think it’s changed us, we didn’t come out of it unscathed,” said the actor.
