Opposing Views recently attended a press day for one of Julianne’s films where she also spoke about Map to the Stars:
“The movie is based on a book by Bruce Wagner who’s a wonderful writer and L.A. satirist,†Moore said. “It’s not only about celebrity culture, but the pursuit of fame at any cost. I was talking to my husband about this the other day, why do people want to be famous, what is it that people are interested in, why are they looking at it? I think every human being has a desire to be seen; to be seen for who they are authentically and sometimes they misinterpret it as being seen in a different light.
“Because really where we feel best and most successful is when we are seen for ourselves in a personal relationship and yet celebrity culture has sort of distorted it and made it about people valuing people being seen as like pictures or images,†Moore continued. “There’s this weird disconnect that the celebrity culture enforces and I don’t know how we got there.  I feel like it happened really rapidly too because when I started out as an actor it wasn’t quite the same.â€
I think it’s called the “world wide web” Julianne. Â I guess the smoke and mirrors of Hollywood now has a few cracks.
Thanks to Over_it_already for the tip.
An interesting comment by Juliana Moore. I do hope this move sparks all sorts of conversations and pondering about fame and celebrity. Knowing David, I am sure that is the whole point
