YELLOW VEIL PICTURES announces world sales SHE LOVED BLOSSOMS MORE, surrealistic sci fi from director YANNIS VESLEMES.
Yellow Veil Pictures announces world sales today ahead of the Tribeca Film Festival world premiere of Yannis Veslemes’ sophomore feature and surrealistic science-fiction drama, SHE LOVED BLOSSOMS MORE. Written by Veslemes and Dimitris Emmanouilidis, the film will be positioned in the ‘Escape From Tribeca’ section of the festival, a genre specific sidebar of stand out titles with auteur-forward storytelling. Veslemes first earned acclaim with his 2014 breakout NORWAY, which debuted at Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. The film stars Panos Papadopoulos, Julio Giorgos Katsis, Aris Balis, Sandra Abuelghanam Sarafanova, Alexia Kaltsiki & Dominique Pinon (Delicatessen, Alien 4) and was shot by cinematographer Christos Karamanis (Monday, Suntan) and edited by Yorgos Mavropsaridis (Poor Things, Dogtooth).
The film is produced by Fenia Cossovitsa, alongside executive producers Christos V. Konstantakopoulos (The Lobster, Attenberg, Before Midnight), Ant Timpson (Greasy Strangler, Come to Daddy), Andreas Zoupanos Kritikos (Before Midnight) with co-producer Alexis Perrin (Vesper, Revenge). The film is supported by the Greek Film Centre, ERT (Hellenic Broadcasting Corporation) and EKOME (National Centre of Audiovisual Media and Communication)
In SHE LOVED BLOSSOMS MORE, three brothers build an unusual time-machine in order to bring their long-dead mother back to life. When their delusional father comes into the picture, the experiments go awry, and they descend into a psychedelic hellscape where the past and present fuse in a comedic yet deeply disturbing exploration of grief.
Director, Yannis Veslemes said, “SHE LOVED BLOSSOMS MORE is a family drama in science fiction disguise. A ballad for the defeated, a comedy for the accursed, a moral tale for us all and our beloved families.”
Hugues Barbier of Yellow Veil Pictures added, “SHE LOVED BLOSSOMS MORE is the first film we've onboarded at script stage, and it's been quite amazing to see it come alive. We couldn't be more proud of Yannis' vision and the amazing team he has around him. Blossoms is an emotional thrill ride and a calling card for one of the most exciting new filmmakers.”

Pobres Criaturas
Alerta de Spoilers!
Bella Baxter é uma mulher que foi achada em um rio por um cientista/cirurgião, chamado Godwin Baxter em uma condição de quase morte e é colocada de volta à vida através de uma cirurgia e um tratamento de eletrochoques. Bella retorna saudável, porém com uma deficiência mental. Ela começa a ser acompanhada por um médico estudante, chamado Max McCandles, que foi convidado pelo Godwin a observá-la e anotar o seu desenvolvimento periódico. Os dois nutrem uma afinidade um pelo outro e o Godwin oferece a Bella para se casar com o Max, porém quando o Godwin chama um advogado para fazer o contrato nupcial dos dois, o Duncan Wedderburn se sente seduzido a querer tomar a Bella para si e levá-la para conhecer o mundo.
Existe uma grande metáfora envolvendo o filme e nele existem coisas visivelmente claras e outras mais complexas que envolve um olhar mais malicioso.
O filme transita entre vários tons de estranhezas, seja pelo olhar da Bella ou por uma cena absurdamente desconcertante. O diretor usa do humor para tracejar a linha tênue entre os escrúpulos do filme e para que o tom de estranheza não se torne algo desconfortável demais ou até mesmo bobo e fantasioso, o que faz a narrativa do filme funcionar belamente. Outro trunfo é o design de produção que está impecável, sempre colocando à vista o adereço certo, na modelagem certa, para cada parte do filme, em cada sequência ou cena. Da mesma forma que a trilha sonora é estranha, assim como o filme, com uma música desconcertante, porém ao mesmo tempo intrigante, que te ajuda a entrar no clima do filme.
A Emma Stone brilha como a Bella e dá para ver como ela se entregou para a personagem, sempre carregando uma dignidade entorno da sua ingenuidade e uma humanidade sem fim para qualquer coisa que a Bella precisa, fazendo e agindo de formas mais vergonhosas e sendo sincera enquanto à sua falha em reconhecer o bem do mal, apesar de isso mudar com o filme.
Pobres criaturas é uma experiência e tanto como filme, com um roteiro bem trabalhado e uma execução que te deixa atônito com cada cena e te faz enxergar um mundo diferente ao final de tudo.
Indicações ao Oscar:
Melhor filme
Melhor direção pelo Yorgos Lanthimos
Melhor atriz pela Emma Stone
Melhor ator coadjuvante pelo Mark Ruffalo
Melhor roteiro adaptado pelo Tony McNamara
Melhor fotografia pelo Robbie Ryan
Melhor edição pelo Yorgos Mavropsaridis
Melhor figurino pela Holly Waddington
Melhor maquiagem pelas Nadia Stacey, Mark Coulier e Josh Weston
Melhor design de produção pelos James Price, Shona Heath, Zsuzsa Mihalek
Melhor trilha sonora pelo Jerskin Fendrix

The Favourite (Yorgos Lanthimos, 2018)
Cast: Olivia Colman, Emma Stone, Rachel Weisz, Nicholas Hoult, Joe Alwyn, Mark Gatiss, James Smith. Screenplay: Deborah Davis, Tony McNamara. Cinematography: Robbie Ryan. Production design: Fiona Crombie. Film editing: Yorgos Mavropsaridis. Costume design: Sandy Powell.
Yorgos Lanthimos is a genuine auteur, although I also think that was already pretty from the brilliant weirdness of Dogtooth (2009), The Lobster (2015), and The Killing of a Sacred Deer (2017), made in collaboration with the screenwrier Efthymis Filippou. The Favourite is the first film of Lanthimos's I've seen that has a screenplay by other hands than his. He doesn't compromise with its genre, the historical costume drama; instead, he sends it up in ways that will make it hard for anyone to watch one of those glossy, opulent recreations of the past with a straight face again. It was hard, for example, to watch Olivia Colman playing Queen Elizabeth II on The Crown without recalling her performance as Queen Anne. And who will ever be able to witness a stately ballroom scene without remembering how Rachel Weisz and Joe Alwyn take the floor in The Favourite? Lanthimos thumbs his nose at historical accuracy, introducing anachronistic music, from Schubert to Elton John, in the midst of period-correct composers like Purcell and Handel, and thereby achieves a higher correctness of emotional intensity. He inverts sexuality, not only in the same-sex cavorting of the queen and her favorites, but also in the foppish bewigged courtiers, whose male devotion to war is subjugated to the power plays of the dominant females who regard war as a game. Abigail (Emma Stone), her mind on other things, gives her husband a hand job on their wedding night. As in his earlier films, Lanthimos is fascinated by people who play god, and although the film is mostly a comedy there's a kind of tragic irony in its ending, with Abigail, who has won her battle with Sarah, now under the thumb of the half-mad queen, reduced to a pet like one of the queen's rabbits. Earlier, Abigail has tried to squash one of the bunnies under her foot; now she's being squashed by Anne. The Favourite, I think, is going to take its place as one of the great satiric films, and it has already influenced at least one delicious TV series, The Great, even to the extent of casting Nicholas Hoult, who plays Harley in The Favourite, as the consort of Catherine the Great.
