Before writing the scenario for “Anora”, Sean Baker Eura Borisov throws

(Editor’s note: This interview was originally published on October 18, 2024. For his work in “Anora”, Yura Borisov was now nominated for the Academy Award for Best Support Award, one of the six film candidates.)

Pouring is the great skill of Sean Baker. He threw all his own films, walking in the world in search of talent to fill his stories. On the Palme d’or “Anora”, Baker had personalities in mind before he finished writing the script. Anura’s roles were shown to Mickey Madison and Russian Maxen Igor to Eura Borisov, who waited about six months before reading the final scenario.

Baker saw the Russian actor for the first time in “Al -Masqoura 6” and “Influenza Petrov”. “These films were playing at the Cannes Lee Festival” Red Rockette “there,” Baker said in Telorid. The Finnish director Joho Kosmanin called him how to work with Borisov. He said: He is the best man in the world. ”

A year after the Cannes Festival, Baker Borisov called. The actor, in turn, recommended Mark Edlstein in Baker, and told him that he knew a young Russian actor who would be incredible for Evan, a wicked descendant of the Russian few who has some fun in New York. “I understand that Sean needs some talented Russian man,” said Borisov in Toronto. “This man must translate the lines on his own, and (I knew) that the man can wear, because it is a lot of improvisation in Sean’s films, and I know that the man should be open to everything.”

Baker certainly arrived at Eydelshteyn, which was sent in a nude test bar. The rest is the date.

While Evan is the bright part, Igor infiltrates you in “Anora”. He is a quiet Russian who works in a group of difficult Armenian men who work for Evan’s father. When Ivan criticizes the Anora sex factor in Las Vegas, Evan’s parents send their strong men to cancel the marriage. When they come at Ivan’s house, this chaos followed. He took off like the wind, leaving his new bride behind her, kicking and screaming as she tries to escape.

The mastered “home invasion” scene has become the main theme for discussion about “Anora”. “It was long, about seven or eight days,” said Borisov. “It seems like improvisation in real life, but when we shoot, we did it carefully, because it is a lot of safety and camera points; if we break something, we can do this once or twice, and no more. Everyone has to understand what he will do, and we do it slowly Severe and slightly faster, a little faster, without punching. ”

Madison did not back down from her virginity. At some point, scratch Borisov’s face with porcelain nails. He said: “Yes, I love it, because, first and foremost, this is funny. Second, it is easy to play me if they really do me and feel it really and play it, and the third, it’s completely love.”

Borisov was affected by Madison’s ability to present her performance over ten cents. He said, “You did not need time to operate.” “It is very calm, and she said:” Yes, I am ready. “And” the camera, the movement! “, He calmed down and needs one second to run. I need some time to prepare and I will think about the next scene and think about what I have to do? Maybe I have no Today’s sleep is better.

In the end, Igor managed to pin Anura against his body on the sofa. As the film advances, the audience begins to realize, through the accurate Mise-en-SCène, that Igor is trying to protect and support Anora, which he feels, sympathizes with it. At some point, he exposes himself in danger to telling my father Ivan that they owe her an apology for how to treat her. Is Anura aware of his feelings? How do you feel?

“When Anura meets him for the first time, he mainly holds her hostage,” Madison said in Telorid. Thus, throughout the 48 hours of time, it is completely overwhelming and tightly. I will definitely feel that.

Borisov translated the scenario himself with a translator. Fortunately, most of his performance is without words. He understood that the audience is trying to know what is going on inside his head. “My goal was to give you space to think about this,” he said in Toronto. “This is the most important. There are no answers. I just give you some questions.”

We know that Igor is a violent man who knows how to overcome people. Is he a killer too? “No one knows,” Borisov said. “You can decide it.” Borisov has not searched for difficult youth like him. He said: “I cannot say that it is a fantasy because it is true for me, because Mickey is real, her personality is real, and she is like a star in the middle of the movie. It is lost, the two men and Garnik can do anything for her.

Borisov was on the “Anora” tour, who was to Telluride to Toronto. It is a whirlwind. He hopes that something good will come out of this beloved movie, as was the case with the introduction of the Finnish Oscars, “Maqsoura 6.” It happened before.

Neon version, “Anora” in theaters now.
