Adrien Brody y su paralelismo entre ‘El Pianista’ y ‘Septembers of Shiraz’ (TIFF 2015)
Toronto – El actor ganador del Oscar Adrien Brody admite que no tuvo inicialmente ganas de interpretar a un personaje como el de su nueva película, “Septembers of Shiraz.”
Brody protagoniza como un joyero judío iraní, respetuoso de la ley que está detenido en Teherán a raíz de la revolución de 1979 e injustamente acusado de ser un espía para Israel.
Como él ha interrogado y torturado, su esposa -interpretada por Salma Hayek- trata desesperadamente de encontrar una manera de liberarlo.
Wayne Blair dirige el guión de Hanna Weg, que está basado en el libro de Dalia Sofer llamado del mismo nombre que la película.
Brody dice el personaje le recordaba al personaje que él interpretó en el drama del holocausto de 2002, “The Pianist”. Ese papel, de un músico judío polaco que lucha por sobrevivir en el gueto de Varsovia durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, le valió el Oscar al mejor actor.
Las similitudes entre las dos partes tenían a Brody indeciso por dos razones.
“Creo que en cierto sentido son papeles muy difíciles de quitarse de encima de alguna manera, yo no tengo miedo, pero hizo aumentar mi conocimiento sobre la tristeza”, dijo en una entrevista en el Festival Internacional de Cine de Toronto, donde “Septembers of Shiraz” tuvo su estreno mundial.
“A pesar de que hay un crecimiento personal para el personaje, hay también una gran cantidad de humanidad. La internalización de torturas y el abuso infligido a un individuo y la absorción de eso, que se debe transmitir, aunque sea ficticia, no se siente bien.”
Brody dijo que ha estado en otras películas donde su personaje “podría infligir una gran cantidad de la tortura.”
“Yo no quiero conectar la capacidad de hacer eso, la maldad y la oscuridad de allí.”
Brody dijo que está “inmensamente agradecido” por el reconocimiento que ha recibido de “El pianista”, señalando que lo ha dotado de gran parte del trabajo que ha venido haciendo desde entonces.
A continuación, se emocionó cuando admitió que su papel en esta nueva película le trajo de vuelta a la experiencia de “El Pianista”.
“Pero también me recordó que las personas siguen cayendo por el camino equivocado”, dijo, con sus ojos visiblemente llorosos.
“Y hay tanta intolerancia en el mundo, hay tanta ignorancia y resentimientos, resentimientos fuera de lugar y la impotencia que alimenta este sentimiento. Y eso es desgarrador.”

Adrien Brody on parallels between ‘The Pianist,’ ‘Septembers of Shiraz’ (TIFF 2015)
TORONTO – Oscar-winning actor Adrien Brody admits he wasn’t initially eager to play a character like the one in his new film, “Septembers of Shiraz.”
Brody stars as a law-abiding Jewish-Iranian jeweller who’s arrested in Tehran in the wake of the 1979 revolution and unjustly accused of being a spy for Israel.
As he’s interrogated and tortured, his wife — played by Salma Hayek — desperately tries to find a way to free him.
Wayne Blair directs Hanna Weg’s screenplay, which is based on the book by Dalia Sofer.
Brody says the character reminded him of the one he played in the 2002 Holocaust drama “The Pianist.” That role, of a Polish-Jewish musician struggling to survive in the Warsaw ghetto during the Second World War, earned him the best-actor Oscar. The similarities between the two parts had Brody hesitant for two reasons.
“I think in one sense they’re very difficult to shake off in a way, which I’m not afraid of, but it does increase my awareness of the sadness,” he said in an interview at the Toronto International Film Festival, where “Septembers of Shiraz” is having its world premiere.
“Even though there is personal growth for the character, there is a great deal of humanity. Just internalizing torture and the abuse inflicted on an individual and absorbing that and conveying that somehow, even though it’s fictional, doesn’t sit well.”
Brody said he’s passed on other films where his character “would inflict a great deal of torture.”
“Because I also don’t want to connect into the ability to do that and the viciousness and the darkness there.”
Brody said he’s “immensely grateful” for the recognition he’s received from “The Pianist,” noting it’s provided him with much of the work he’s come upon since then.
He then got emotional as he admitted that his role in this new film brought him back to the experience of “The Pianist.”
“But it also reminded me that people continue to fall down the wrong path,” he said, his eyes getting watery, “and there’s so much intolerance in the world and there’s so much ignorance and resentment and misplaced resentment and helplessness that fuels this sentiment.
“And that’s heartbreaking.”

The model Lara Leito about Adrien Brody.
On May 05, 2015, the ‘top model’ of Russian origin was in Spain on a fashion show in Barcelona for designer Rosa Clara.
She has three years of dating but without wedding plans with actor Adrien Brody.
The model of Russian origin Lara Leito (21), current girlfriend Adrien Brody (41) traveled from California to Barcelona for a fashion show to the designer Rosa Clara in The Barcelona Bridal Week.
Before the show, on Tuesday May 5, the ‘top model’ attended the site to present the ‘fitting’ collection with other ‘top’, Clara Alonso.
After waiting her appearance more time than usual in the ‘celebrities’, very discreet and shy to be a top, she appeared before the media model clad in a design inspired by the twenties with tulip-shaped skirt design. Apparently, the delay was because she was dizzy twice and still felt ill. The idea about pregnancy with actor was inevitable among those present. Quickly she says:
I like children, everyone was once a child. I like watching them and care for them, I would get [childrens] in the future but I still see it as something far away.
Adrien and she met in 2012 at the Cannes Film Festival, from that day they are dating and have not separated. Maybe because “We are not possessive” recalls Lara.
So far, the most serious girlfriend that he met after his romance with Elsa Pataky, but as Lara mentioned, we are no plans of marriage:
“All the girls would like to marry someday, but I’m not ready”
And visibly uncomfortable alluded the name of his famous couple, she said:
“Nobody has asked me and nobody answered. I do not know when the day will come… That everything has to happen be naturally. We will see”.
But said she would like to dress like “a princess” with “a slight tail-end”. Would use two dress, “a long dress for the ceremony and one short for the party”. The place for her is not important, no think of castles princesses, said that for her: “Any place is fine if you marry with the person you love” adding ” the beach would be a good place”.
The model also showed the elegance and simplicity of dresses Rosa Clara and said: “As soon as I received the proposal to come to Barcelona looked at the new collection of Rosa Clara and I really love the chic and beautiful they are, his designs also perfectly suited to my personality, I like feeling “nice and simple”.
