translated from Spanish: Berlinale: Juliette Binoche, sworn Deluxe

at this point, Juliette Binoche knows the world of cin e as the Palm of your hand. The French actress has spent the last thirty years, jumping from one film to another, set embodying the most dissimilar characters against cameras in the most prestigious directors and helping produce films at a rate which, for a time, threatened with “saturate of Binoche” up to his most faithful fans.
Awards that it has earned during his career and that explains why for the 69th international Berlin Film Festival organizers is a blessing to have it as President of the jury. Apart from receiving an Oscar, a Bafta and a César, Binoche was the first European actress on being awarded in the three most important festivals of the world: Cannes, Venice and Berlin.
Decisive Sextet director Sebastián Lelio, the German actress Sandra Hüller, the British producer Trudie Styler, Justin Chang American film critic and the curator of film of the Museum of modern art in New York, Rajendra Roy, the other judges who are decide shall be granted to who the Golden bear on February 16, culminates when the Berlinale. Seventeen tapes officially vying for this distinction.
A credito:EfE of those films will have the honor of receiving the statuette from the hands of the “woman of a thousand faces”, as it is described “the Binoche” in his native France. This Thursday (7.2.2019), after the inauguration of the most important festival of German cinema, the actress reminded anyone who forgot that she is also a woman of strong opinions. No desire to defend it, Binoche recalled that Harvey Weinstein was “a great producer”.
Binoche delivered the gold bear Weinstein, who produced the film “The English patient”, for which Binoche won an Oscar and a silver bear at the Berlinale, is involved in one of the biggest scandals of sexual abuse that have shaken Hollywood. He has been accused of rape. Binoche declined to comment on the court case in question claiming that he had already repeatedly pronounced on the matter.
Binoche insisted that, personally, it never had problems with Weinstein, but I emphasize “yes I saw that there were”. The questions about his relationship with the producer during the filming of “The English patient” were formulated within the framework of the presentation of the jury of the Berlinale. By the way, the 69th Edition of the festival has the largest selection of principals in its history in the running for the Golden bear.
Among them is the Spanish Isabel Coixet – with whom Binoche worked one time-with a film based on the first gay marriage in Spain. “Elisa and Marcela” is also the first production of Netflix and the only Latin American tape that aspires to the highest award of the Berlin Film Festival this year.
