Sophie Marceau: 'I hope love always stays a mystery' (Big Issue)

Even if you're over 50, romance can make you feel like a teenager, says Sophie Marceau talking about her new film I Love America.

“No, it’s beautiful and it’s untouchable. “I’m an interpreter, what I need is direction,” she says. It makes you suffer and makes you happy just as much if you’re 13 or you’re 70. And that makes your heart beat, it makes you alive. “I hope it always stays a mystery,” Marceau answers, “otherwise that would be horrible. Take a print or digital subscription to The Big Issue and provide a critical lifeline to our work. “I don’t know what makes a person be an actor. When I go to China, I feel Chinese; when I go to Albania, I’ll feel Albanian.” “In France, we sometimes get lost in subtleties. But also because I guess we don’t want to limit things into just one parameter. She wants life to be beautiful and loving.” If I’m able to understand something, it’s because I can share the same.

I Love America review – a pretentious misfire (Ready Steady Cut)

This review of the Amazon Original film I Love America does not contain spoilers. It's lovely to see Sophie Marceau back in the movies. The former.

In a touching scene, Lisa forgives her mother and is given closure on her deathbed when she apologizes to Lisa for her parental misgivings. It’s as if the characters are made not to support the narrative but only the main character. The jokes simply are not funny, and the ones that do work miss their mark (the cell phone alert, for example). To make matters worse, the film fails the minimum standard almost immediately when you know that the love interests will break up shortly after the credits roll. She’s the sole reason to see the new Amazon Prime film I Love America. Ms. Marceau is a breath of fresh air. For instance, just because she is over forty doesn’t mean she is in the same mature place as men or women her age. Written by Lisa Zauelos and Gael Fierro, I Love America tells the story of Lisa (Marceau), a film director who travels to the United States after her mother’s passing.
