Thanks to Marie for this, info on a press conference held in Russia:


* Movie won't be in the compition, but will be showed May 19th in Cannes where cinematographs and press can see the movie.
* the scenario was remade 12 times
* post production took 8 months
* about modern youth
* some problems with scandals around Mischa Barton
* they were not sure whether to shoot in LA or not
* musical movie
* at the moment the movie will have 6 new Tatu songs. On the seperate disk (soundtrack) there will probably be even more.
* High Definition technology was used to shoot the movie, shooted for the biggest screen.
* The DVD will have bonus material.
* Girls in the movie will go to a tatu concert, where Tatu will sing the new song You and I (Ti i Ya). The movie will be called "Ti i Ya/ V poiskah Tatu"
* movie for the international market, the movie will be sold on foreig territories, meaning all foreign territories, apart from the US
* they haven't sign an exclusive contract with a distributor yet, that should happen not later than May 15th. They have lots of choices, some major distributors are interested
* The name is "You and I/Finding Tatu", but the distributor gets to decide on the title for the different places where they'll show the movie
* He hopes that a television channel in Russia will buy the movie later on and show it on television.

* Budget for the movie was 20 million
* In Cannes for there will also be a special event, a live Tatu concert on the beach after showing the movie. Live music, with the musicians, good lightning. This also draws the attention of the organisers of the orginisers of the film festival.
* They were invited to the competition and for the outside of competition. They didn't go for the competition because they weren't prepared to take part in such a format, it's not a festival film
* The movie being showed in Cannes means a good place to present it and a way to let people see that Russia is also present. All the important people will be there, people with connections to the cinema, distributors
* A lot still depends on the distributor
* print and advertisement is done by the distributor
* Mischa agreed to a relatively normal payment. Young people always want to work with famous directors
* At the end of the movie they have a concert where they sing the song that Lana and Jenny wrote
* Lena and Yulia don't have much parts, but tatu is always there in the movie, music, conversations, dreams of the fans, ...
* The two fans buy a ticket for the concert and find out it false. They then end up in a Moscow club and then everything starts that will happen in the rest of the movie. At the end they don't find Tatu, Tatu finds them
* The movie is just wonderful
* post production took place in LA, it's easier to work there, they have all the facilities + the director and other people were Americans but audio dubs were done in Moscow
* Shooting took place in LA and Moscow (?? not sure)
* RAMCO already worked with Roland Joffe for 'Captivity'

MiScHa <3

Thanks for the new thread!!
Cant wait to see Mischa in Cannes!!


WTF? Lana Starkova NOT Mischa Barton!



Translation..? LMAO.

WHAT


YAY objectivity!

meatwood

i cant wait for this movie or any of mischas movies for that matter the fact that the movie is said to be wonderfull just makes the anticipaion greater and how could a film with mischa not be wonderful???

Sam_MC

I'm actually pretty excited that Mischa is working with a pretty controversial director. Mischa herself is quite controversial lol. Should make for a good combo.

maalibu

You and I official website is up

Movie poster:



Trailer: YOU AND I • The Official Film Site

MiScHa <3

OH.MY.GOD!!!!!!!
Poster looks AWESOME for the simple reason that Mischa's name owns everything.

BUT!

THAT TRAILER!!!!!

hdsfhhdsaghjfdshnfdsjjn. I am not a tATu fan. And the plot looks a bit messy.
Yet I CANNOTCANNOTCANNOTWAIT to see this movie. I wonder why.
No wait I DO know why, lol.

OHMYGOD.


ETA: and THIS IS NOT CHICAGO!
Mystery solved

CreekFreak

I'm just excited about it in general. Who knows how it'll turn out, but it has Mischa and Anton!

MiScHa <3

Yes he seems talented! And he's only...like 18 y/o!
I wonder if he is in Cannes too...?

CreekFreak

Yeah, he's really young! I wonder if he'll be there, too!

Sam_MC

Ahhhhh. Im a bit conflicted at even commenting lol.

I think the poster looks crap. I think the trailer is crap.

There are points in the trailer that make the movie look possibly interesting but there is no cohesive storyline. It's just a bunch of clips thrown together with a good voiceover guy. Way too many Tatu references as well.

I obviously LOVE Mischa but I think this will be a glitch in her career.

But then again, this movie isn't designed for the US so it could fit very well in the international markets.

CreekFreak

Something can't be a glitch when people don't think she's working to begin with! LOL.

And, like you said, it's not for the US, so I don't see the problem.

Sam_MC

LOL that's true.

I'm just looking at it from the perspective of if Mischa wasn't in the film. If Lana was played by another actress I don't think it would ever cross my mind to see this.

CreekFreak

Oh, I wouldn't either. But that applies to a LOT of films I choose to see. LOL.
