Emma Stone had to learn a lot about conspiracy theories for her role in the Western “Eddington” of the Ari Aster era – so much so that he started making his way in his social media algorithms.
Stone plays Louise, the sheriff’s wife of Joaquin Phoenix, who falls into a plot burrow when she meets the attractive guru of Austin Butler. Questioned at the Cannes Film Festival’s press conference for “Eddington” about how she prepared for the role, Stone thought about how her own algorithm changed during the shooting.
“The only additional thing that frightened me a little in the algorithm system was to look for some of the things in this film that were not in my algorithm, unfortunately added them to my algorithm,” she said. “Because once you have started to google it, you are starting to see more and more things. So it’s a real rabbit hole, very quickly. Unfortunately, I’m still fed with crazy shit.”
“Eddington”, who made his debut in Cannes last night at a standing ovation of five minutes, also features Pedro Pascal and Austin Butler. The film A24 – which does not hesitate to embrace the Maga movement – is fixed at the height of the pandemic cochem in May 2020 and follows “a confrontation between a small town sheriff (Phoenix) and the mayor (Pascal)” which “stretches a barrel of powder as a neighbor translates against the neighbor in Eddington, New Mexico”.
In a more humorous memory of Covid-19 lockdown, Pascal said that “the only thing he could look at” to “protect himself” from the algorithm was the filmography of the actress of “Twin Peaks” Lara Flynn Boyle.
“There have been several seasons of” The Precious “by David E. Kelley, and everything was on Hulu and I watched him,” he said, causing a laugh of the play. “This and reality TV on airports, like the old A&E, people just lose their shit at the airport or trying to move their house in boxes, but using Southwest Airlines instead of a sea company and things like that.
“Eddington” was presented in theaters on July 18.
