Olivier Assayas, Penélope Cruz, and Édgar Ramírez on Wasp Network | NYFF57

Фильм және анимация

Olivier Assayas, Penélope Cruz, Édgar Ramírez, and producer Rodrigo Teixeira discuss Wasp Network at the 57th New York Film Festival press conference, moderated by Kent Jones.
57th New York Film Festival is presented by Film at Lincoln Center from Friday, September 27 - Sunday, October 13. See schedule and ticket info: www.filmlinc.org/nyff
Olivier Assayas brings his customary style and urgency to an unexpected subject in this epic chronicle of a small group of Cuban defectors in Miami who in the early nineties established a spy web to infiltrate anti-Castroist terrorist groups carrying out violent attacks on Cuban soil. Amidst a dazzling ensemble that includes Gael García Bernal, Wagner Moura, Ana de Armas, and Leonardo Sbaraglia, Assayas mostly centers on the saga of network member René Gonzalez (Édgar Ramírez, star of Assayas’s Carlos, NYFF48) and his wife Olga (Penélope Cruz, in a superb performance of complex emotional transparency), who for many years is kept in the dark about René’s double life in America. Inspired by Fernando Morais’s meticulously researched book The Last Soldiers of the Cold War, Wasp Network is a nuanced, gripping thriller from one of the world’s most adventurous, globe-hopping filmmakers, told with journalistic detail and vivid sympathy for those Cubans in exile who sought liberation back home while being targeted by the U.S. government.
A centerpiece of New York culture since 1963, the New York Film Festival will introduce the most essential new cinematic works from around the world to U.S. audiences in its Main Slate. NYFF will also continue to feature a variety of titles in different sections and sidebars, including Spotlight on Documentary, newly rejuvenated classics in Restorations and Revivals, a diverse selection of international and locally made Shorts, the ever-expanding experimental showcase Projections, and the immersive storytelling experiences of the cutting-edge Convergence. Additionally, there will be an exciting lineup of special events, free filmmaker talks and panel discussions, and the latest editions of our annual Industry and Critic Academies.

    Cuando sucedio lo de los 5 en Cuba. A nosotros, siendo niños, nos sacaban de las escuelas para marchar en las calles a exigir el retorno de los 5 espias. Hablo de niños sacados de sus colegios sin darle ninguan eleccion para participar en marchas obligatoria donde serian usados como titeres en un conflito politico que a esa edad ni siqueira puedes llegar a comprender aun. Cuando Elian, lo mismo, nos sacaban de la escuela para manifestaciones obligatorias y cuando lo regresaron a cuba, nos repartieron a todos un sobre que contenia fotos de Elian, quien tambien era un niño y cuya madre murio ahogada en la travesia tratando de llevarlo a EEUU con la esperanza de que tuviera un mejor futuro. El gobierno de Cuba es una dictadura, cuya adoctrinacion en niños es algo normal. El lema de los niños desde su primaria, es ''Pioneros por el comunismo, seremos como el che'' y luego '' patrio o muerte, venceremos'' Eso cada mañana, de todos los dias a clase, era lo primero que se hacia. En el matutino, firme, saludad la bandera con el himmno, y luego los lemas que ya puse, entonces despues comenzaba las clases. La cantidad de personas que han muerto ahogados o interceptados intentando de salir de la isla con el unico proposito de buscar una vida mejor, es estremecedora, y aun en 2020, sigue ocurriendo. La situacion alli es critica, el control del gobierno a la poblacion parece sacado de la peor pelicula de represion de la historia, cada individuo esta vigilado constantemente, por cdr, vigilancia, incluso los jovenes estudiantes se tienen que cuidar de criticar al gobierno frente a otro joven de la ujc, porque alli nunca sabes quien es el chivato que te destruye la vida. Hay miles de razones por lo cual esta pelicula es una falta de respeto para lo que se vive alli. Y que el Gramma, el periodico oficial de la dictadura, ese que no critica jamas al gobierno y que solo lo alaba o lo justifica constantemente, esta herramienta de propaganda del gobierno dictatorial, salio en defensa de esta pelicula y que los afines a la dictadura en cuba, esten alabando la pelicula y exigiendo que la pongan en la teliviosion para todos los cubanos para navidad y eso, ya deja claro que lo que ha hecho netflix con esta pelicula es un insulto al pueblo cubano que sufre.

    I feel like this film sadly got away from Assayas, one of my favorite directors. Plotting incoherent and distracting, and wonder if criticism of Castro is particularly subdued because they were allowed to film in Havana. I particularly dislike the voiceover explanations that periodically overload us with historical details. Ironically, given the incendiary politics it dives into, the reason to watch it is for the individual performances, which are all SENSATIONAL, brilliant. Getting to see Ramírez and Assayas work together again, even in a rougher experiment, is a gift for those of us who treasure "Carlos."

    @@ensteffo I'm reasonably sure that Assayas is attempting to avoid total propaganda in favor of Castro's regime as well as any alliance with the nightmarish exile right wing of Miami. Always a tricky balance to achieve. These men are clearly heroes for what they did, but I don't think that's the point of the film. Assayas is interested in the complexity of personal lives caught up in great historical events-- in this case the fallout from the collapse of the Soviet Union. For me the most successful part of the film is in conveying just how incredibly close Miami and Havana are, even though they have been absolutely universes apart since 1962.

    9:48 Oh the facts are detrimental to the movie, but this is not a movie you have created, it does not flow, people cant connect the pieces together. This is a mere documentary, an unexplained and unfinished documentary, one that gives out a false message to detriment of the Cuban people. This "movie" shames the exiled Cubans who lost everything and families were torn apart, it gives them a bad look and praises a dictatorship who has done nothing but kill, incarcerate, violate the freedom of its people. I would like to know, as a Cuban, what your intentions were when making this "film", "movie"? I want to know why you did this?

    And all you right-wing nuts on this thread-- get a life, honestly. Watch "Carlos," which makes it amply clear that Assayas is no tool of any ideology or neo-communist regime. As a director he is a deep skeptic who is interested in people and their dignity against the backdrop of grand historical changes that lead to violence and wars.

    In order for you to have an idea of how Cubans feel, imagine making a movie about the heroes of the KKK or Nazi Germany. It fails to inform how in Cuba, you would be put in front of a firing squad without a trial for having a different political view. This movie fails to state the reason for the rafters and mass immigration. It wrongly states that this immigration is due to economic reasons. This is a huge understatement! These were Cubans that were jumping into the ocean, risking their lives, not only for economic reasons and to escape hunger, but to escape oppression and seeking basic human freedoms that have been absent since 1959 in their country. I’m not going to give anyone an in-depth history lesson here, but “Hermanos al Rescate” was a peaceful organization that only saved lives. The movie does not state the numbers of lives they saved. The dropping flyers incident was a onetime thing and it was a peaceful fly over. The purpose was to bring information and hope to a population that had been cut off from any outside information for over 50 years. The movie does not state the fact that they were in international waters when they were shot down. I think this movie should be taken down for misinformation. It is incredible how they twist the truth around and take the history out of context. How would the world react if there was a movie were the Gestapo are the heroes? As a Cuban. I see it as an insult. As a movie it is not the best. Not the best acting or directing.

    @@Josh93B93 kzread.info/dash/bejne/p39tk8aFga7Xkbw.html Remember that in Cuba before 1952 there was no immigration. Live in Cuba was the same or better than in the United States. We had a constitution, and all the freedoms of press, expression, ownership, travel etc. just like in the USA. From 1952 to 1959 we had a dictatorship that took control thru an Illegal military coup. Even thou, nothing really changed for the average Cuban, all the liberties remained. In 1959, with the promise of liberating us from this dictatorship, Castro took over and everything went to hell. It became a jail. ALL property was confiscated. No longer did you own your family business or your own home. Everything belonged to the government. TV channels, radio, and newspapers were nationalized. No longer did you have information from the outside world. If you were born after 1959, you where brainwashed in school that Cuba was one of the most advanced riches countries thanks to the revolution. You were made to believe that the rationalization of food was a normal thing worldwide. YES, you could no longer go to the supermarket to buy as pleased. From then on, you had a ration booklet that was a joke. No one could survive on that. Despite all this, the revolution sold an fictitious idea to the world of how education and medicine is free and what a great utopia Cuba is. The world still buys this shit believe it or not.
