At today’s Mastermind press conference during Cannes 2025, a reporter asked Josh O’Connor and director Kelly Reichardt to dive into the film’s central theme: identity. Elena spoke about how Mastermind dissects the fragile line between truth and illusion, especially in a world where memory and perception are constantly shifting. Josh added, “My character is constantly questioning who he is—what’s real, what’s constructed. That tension drives everything.” This psychological unraveling forms the emotional heart of the film, resonating deeply with today’s global conversations around self and authenticity. #onepresstv #MastermindMovie #Cannes2025 #Josh O'Connor #Kelly Reichardt #IdentityInFilm #PsychologicalThriller #CinemaWithDepth #FilmThemes #John Magaro #CannesConversations #WhoAreWe #ArtAndIdentity #BehindTheScenes #FilmDiscussion #cannes78

During the Mastermind press conference at Cannes 2025, lead actor Josh O'Connor was asked about the experience of performing in both Italian and English. He opened up about the linguistic and emotional demands of switching between two languages while staying true to the intensity of his character. “It wasn’t just about learning lines,” Josh said. “It was about thinking and feeling in both languages—and making it real.” The bilingual depth adds a compelling layer to Mastermind, enhancing its international impact. #Onepresstv #joshoconnor #MastermindMovie #Cannes2025 #BilingualActing #ItalianCinema #EnglishFilm #Kellyreichardt #Johnmagaro #FilmPressConference #ActingChallenge #BehindTheScenes #CannesHighlights #MultilingualFilm #InternationalCinema

At the Sentimental Value press conference during Cannes 2025, a reporter asked Elle Fanning a thoughtful question about her evolving festival journey: “You’ve been at this festival many times. One of your films, The Door in Argentina, was so small. Have you shot in Europe before especially considering the language?” Elle reflected on her experience working internationally, how language and cultural context shape her performances, and what it's meant to return to Cannes with such a personal project. This engaging moment was part of a rich conversation featuring director Joachim Trier, writer Eskil Vogt, and actors Stellan Skarsgård, Renate Reinsve, Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas, and Cory Michael Smith — all discussing the emotional depth of Sentimental Value and its warm reception at the festival. #onepresstv #ElleFanning #SentimentalValue #Cannes2025 #InternationalCinema #FestivalJourney #JoachimTrier #RenateReinsve #StellanSkarsgård #TheDoorInArgentina #EuropeanFilm #CannesFilmFestival #ActingAbroad #BehindTheScenes

At the Cannes 2025 press conference for The History of Sound, Paul Mescal was asked about a quietly powerful element of the film — his singing performance, and what it was like to sing while accompanied by piano. Paul spoke about the emotional vulnerability required for those scenes, the preparation behind his vocal performance, and how music served as an intimate form of storytelling between his character and Josh O'Connor’s. He reflected on how singing on screen deepened his connection to the role and added new layers of authenticity to the film’s atmosphere. This tender moment was part of a rich conversation with director Oliver Hermanus, writer Ben Shattuck, and cast members Josh O’Connor, Chris Cooper, Molly Price, Raphael Sbarge, Hadley Robinson, Emma Canning, Briana Middleton, and Gary Raymond. #onepresstv #PaulMescal #TheHistoryOfSound #Cannes2025 #PaulMescalSinging #JoshOConnor #PianoScenes #OliverHermanus #MusicalPerformance #IntimateCinema #ActorInsight #CannesFilmFestival #SingingInFilm #QueerCinema #FilmMusicMoments

At the Cannes 2025 press conference for The History of Sound, journalist Rebecca Olson asked Paul Mescal one of the most emotionally insightful questions of the day: “What did you learn — maybe something new or unexpected — about love from this character?” Paul paused thoughtfully before delivering a deeply personal and honest response. He shared how portraying Lionel opened his eyes to the quiet power of love — its patience, its fragility, and how it can be expressed not through grand gestures but through attention, silence, and presence. It was a standout moment in a panel that also featured director Oliver Hermanus, writer Ben Shattuck, and co-stars Josh O’Connor, Chris Cooper, Molly Price, Raphael Sbarge, Hadley Robinson, Emma Canning, Briana Middleton, and Gary Raymond. Together, they explored the film’s emotional core and its reflections on memory, intimacy, and identity. #onepresstv #PaulMescal #TheHistoryOfSound #Cannes2025 #RebeccaOlson #LoveInFilm #WhatIsLove #JoshOConnor #OliverHermanus #EmotionalCinema #ActorInsight #CannesFilmFestival #QueerRomance #VulnerabilityOnScreen #FilmPanel
