The Hunger Games Jennifer Lawrence, shackled in hell adaptations
David O. Russell, Hollywood director, author of Three Kings or Happiness Therapy, already regretted his words. And for good reason : they might not really like the Fox. In an interview, he said that the main actress of the Hunger Games trilogy, Jennifer Lawrence, was literally carried into slavery by the studio. He has since returned to his words, he considers " stupid ", but the damage is done...
Shooting conditions blockbusters are regularly denounced for their breaches of the Labour Code, but it is rare that a director himself takes the floor, especially referring to the main actress herself. This is exactly what David O. Russell did, explaining : "I personally think they should leave a breather, because they make a lot of money," he said.
He probably knows what he's talking about in the film industry for over 20 years, he has collaborated several times with the actress aged only 23 years, who had to pay for during archery and severe physical training for feature films. "I'll tell you what they do to this girl - much talked about 12 Years a Slave at the moment, and this is what this franchise boils. And I'm having a lot of trouble for saying that. "
12 Years a Slave, this is of course Steve McQueen film on the story of a slave in Louisiana , recently released in theaters. He also compared the performance of the blockbuster inspired books by Suzanne Collins in a " hamster wheel." Obviously, we can excuse that the slave did not touch the check of the actress, and Aidan McQuade, director of Anti -Slavery International, also held to respond.
" If you are interested, I invite him to join me to visit India or Nepal to see what looks like modern slavery. Work 12 hours a day in a brick building for virtually nothing, live in dire conditions and are not able to leave this situation is the real slavery " is he angry.
Finally, David O. Russell himself retracted his statements : "Without doubt, I used a stupid analogy in a pathetic attempt to be humorous. I barely understood the sentence pronounced, and I am sincerely sorry. "
