“Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets” is a 2017 film, the premiere of which was the occasion for a flurry of conflicting comments. Talking to reporters, the creator of the picture, Luc Besson, admitted that he had been preparing for the filming of this tape for about ten years.
Users of the World Wide Web - about their impressions
The focus of the public is not the storyline and not the box office. Visitors to virtual cinemas tirelessly discuss actors. The film "Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets" refers to film projects that any artist wants to participate in.
Especially “got” to Dane William DeHaan. The external data of DeKhaan caused a storm of emotions among admirers of Luc Besson's work. If some commentators admire the beauty of this guy, then others are perplexed about his strange appearance. Someone hopes to see Dane again on the screen in the very near future, and someone doesn’t know how a man with a face of an aging child, a feminine posture and a breast lacking vegetation could receive the attention of the filmmakers.
Reviews about the picture
No less emotional outburst caused the content of the picture. Spectators who leave their comments on the pages of online cinemas can be divided into two conditional groups. Persons who find themselves in the first of them are indignant at the lack of dynamics in the film and its oversaturation with computer "lotions." According to these commentators, the actors are simply serving the deadline on the screen, running to and fro running around from time to time, occasionally "barking" with representatives of all kinds of minorities and urging earthlings to observe environmental cleanliness.
Representatives of the second conditional group (of which the majority) believe that the actors of the film "Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets" worked hard. They call the picture a classic of space fiction and an example of Bessonov’s signature humor. True, some of them admit that moviegoers who did not watch the film did not lose anything.
Nevertheless, this work of Besson is recognized as the largest and most expensive project in the history of the French film industry.
Dane DeHaan
The actor’s hometown is Allentown. He was born in 1986,
February 6. After completing his primary education, Dane studied at the University of North Carolina School of Art.
Dane DeHaan became famous in 2011 after the release of the movie thriller "Chronicle", where he happened to reincarnate as one of their main characters. The actor’s creative career began in 2003 - for five years he starred in lowly short films and television series, until in 2010 he caught the eye of the creators of the television series “Patients” (DeHaan was invited to play the role of Jesse d'Amato).
Dehaan's on-screen girlfriend
British actress and model Cara Delevingne was born in 1992 in London. Since the Delevingne family has a relationship with the royal family, the girl never experienced financial difficulties, however, from a young age she showed a desire to have her own money and not look into her parents wallet.
On the movie screen, Delevingne appeared in 2012, in the British-French film project, where she played Princess Sorokin. But on the film adaptation of Leo Tolstoy’s novel, the girl’s career did not end. In 2016, the film “Suicide Squad” was released at the box office, where Kara appeared before the venerable public in the image of the sorceress June Moon. To date, the track record of actress Delevingne consists of ten film works.
In 2017, the actress starred in two films at once, and in both she shared the set with Dane DeHaan. As part of the film “Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets”, the actors reincarnated as space special agents who arrived on the planet Alpha, and in the film “Tulip Fever” they played heroes who lived in the 17th century.
The relationship with the Princess of Wales did not leave an imprint on her manner of behavior: Kara is sociable and hardworking. The actress celebrates her birthday on August 12.
Director, screenwriter and producer Luke Besson
The sci-fi action movie “Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets” (2017 film) is one of the latest film projects of Luc Besson, working on which he was realized as a director, screenwriter and producer. The budget of the motion picture was one hundred seventy million dollars.
The road to the world of cinema was winding and unpredictable for Besson. Luke's parents - diving instructors - since childhood have been preparing from the heir the successor of the family foundations. An accident helped to change the rules: having been injured, the young man was forced to forget about scuba diving forever.
In cinema, Besson made his debut after many years of "wandering" around Hollywood, working as "elder, where to send", then the director of the videos, then the assistant director. The first film by Besson, the director, was short and was called "The Last but One".
He managed to conquer the film Olympus on the second attempt, presenting the full-length picture "The Last Battle" to the public. This film, shot in black and white for the sake of economy, was shown in Avoriaz - at the film fiction festival - and brought Besson two whole significant prizes (not counting several awards).
