''Greta Scacchi: Madam Chair''
LA PRESSE
(TRANSLATED FROM FRENCH TO ENGLISH)
(TRANSLATED FROM FRENCH TO ENGLISH)
The famous actress Italian-English account preside over the jury of the film festival in the world in a democratic way, even putting aside his own feelings if necessary.
Greta Scacchi had just submit his luggage when we met. Its presence in the Montreal World Film Festival (WFF) him back to his memory the previous stays in the metropolitan area.
"I've never had the opportunity to accompany a film film festival in the world, but I turned to you in part two features that are very expensive," she says, insisting speak French, a language she mastered very well. " Salt on Our Skin ( vessels of the heart ), Andrew Birkin, is linked to an intimate part of my life since my playing partner, Vincent D'Onofrio, is also the father of my daughter. This is also the third day of the shoot I learned that I was pregnant. Our daughter is 20 years old now. And she studied drama! Later, there was The Red Violin, a meeting with François Girard beautiful. "
Born in Italy to an English mother and an Italian father, Greta Scacchi has lived in Australia as a teenager. "I feel as Australian than Italian and English, she said. I travel with an Italian passport and Australian! "
Revealed in the early 80s with Heat and Dust ( Heat and Dust ) by James Ivory, the actress quickly found among the most requested comedians on the international level. Mischief White (Michael Radford), A man in love ( Diane Kurys), Good Morning, Babylon(Paolo and Vittorio Taviani), Presumed Innocent (Alan J. Pakula)Jefferson in Paris (James Ivory), The Player (Robert Altman) is required from the flagship titles filmography very rich.
"In hindsight, I think I probably found my biggest film role with James Ivory and Heat and Dust , she says. I've had other great roles later, but I've never had the opportunity to play another character as rich as this one. Ruth Prawer Jhabvala is a writer exception. I've never been separated from her novel during the filming. "
Residing mainly in the English countryside, the actress will take advantage of his stay at the WFF to full international productions, which are often sentenced to a diffusion confidential.
"To see some, I have to go to London, she says. Even then, they are not showing very long.Holding a festival is a great opportunity to remember that artistic success is measured not only at the box office. "
The Presidency, a surprise
The FFM, Greta Scacchi account its role in a democratic president.
"I am honored by the privilege given to me. I also was surprised that the presidency gives me.Over the years, I have had the opportunity to be a member of several juries. The experience always proves rewarding. It is interesting how the allegiances are made and unmade. In 1996, I was fortunate to be a member of the jury of the Cannes Film Festival and I developed an immediate complicity with Atom Egoyan, who was also part. We were inseparable. Then, on the fourth day, a film on which we were not at all agree separated us! Not everything is black and white when it comes to a work of art. This is what fascinates me. "
Thus, the actress will take to model Francis Coppola, the same one who presided over the jury at Cannes in 1996. "Francis took into account all opinions, even those members who supported a film he hated. He respected the choices of others. Believe me, it does not always happen like that! "
The Red Violin François Girard is presented under the stars next Wednesday at 20:30.

'Event of the week'..'Hunt No More' fashion label launch
08 Mar 2012
RAGTRADER
A host of well-known names and faces turned out for the official launch of the Hunt No More label this week.
As-well-as representatives from David Jones and Vogue, screen and theatre stars also popped along to the home-grown brand's exclusive night.
Held at the Since I Left You bar, which is nestled along a cobbled alley in Kent Street, attendees mingled in the bar's outside brick-walled courtyard which was sprinkled with rustic lanterns and candlelit tables.
The label was filtered into David Jones stores earlier this year, with many items selling out due to its success.
Among the well-heeled revellers was the daughter of Greta Scacci, and Law & Order star Vincent D’Onofrio, Leila George, actresses Celia Massingham and Elizabeth Blackmore, and Black Balloon director Elissa Down.
Guests enjoyed canopies and an exclusively designed cocktail, The Dagger, which is soon to become a staple on the Since I Left You menu, after its stellar success with the events attendees.
Visitors at the New York style inner city bar were shown the label's short film, which showcased the brand's 'edgy and mysterious' style, and this was projected onto an exposed brick wall.
The launch was also well attended by representatives from The Sunday Telegraph, Vogue, InStyle, Oyster, David Jones, Who, and of course, Ragtrader.

'THE YOUNG ONES: Australia's new breed of filmmakers speak out'

For someone who excelled at sport, representing her country in indoor soccer in both Europe and North America, Gracie Otto admits she still isn't sure how she wound up in an industry that's notoriously fickle and, for women, ageist and sexist. "I'd seen what it's like to be in the film industry and not work, as an actor, from my family," she says, of her parents Barry Otto and Susan Hill, and older half-sister Miranda. "I didn't really know what I wanted to do when I was playing soccer. I wanted to travel – which we didn't do as a family – but that was about it."
