Actor with his daughter, Sean Penn explores family ties in a Cannes film

 


(Correct the first paragraph to say Sunday, not Saturday)

CANNES, France (Reuters) -Sean Penn said on Sunday he nearly missed out on the opportunity to star alongside his daughter Dylan for the first time in Flag Day, his latest film to compete for at the Cannes Film Festival – until actor Matt Damon cheered him on.

Oscar winner Penn plays John Vogel, a true wheel merchant who has gone from one failed business venture to another, causing grief to his daughter Jennifer, who revere him.

According to a book by journalist Jennifer Vogel, Penn told a press conference in Cannes that he had a picture of his daughter Dylan when reading the script – but it took convincing to put himself in place of Jennifer’s father, when he was already directing.

The last effort I made not to play it was when I sent the script about a month and a half before filming started to Matt Damon, who called me, not to say that he could do it, not to say he couldn’t do it, but to say I was a jerk not to do it, Penn said.

Vogel was a notorious petty criminal who found himself embroiled in counterfeiting, although Flag Day is more interested in how he fools those he loves and lies to himself.

The directors of Into The Wild’s latest effort behind the camera has so far earned mixed reviews, with reviews from Screendaily pointing to flaws in the way the characters are presented, including Jennifer’s transition from an anguished teenager. to a budding journalist.

Most critics, however, have praised the acting duo at its center, including the performance of Dylans, and Sean Penn as the exuberant, fun-loving father who tries to maintain his grand illusion as his dream comes true. American goes wrong.

THE TWO ALPHA

The film is in competition with entries from other renowned directors such as Wes Anderson, in the return of festivals to the French Riviera after its cancellation in 2020 due to COVID-19.

Dylan Penn is also joined by his real-life brother Hopper Jack Penn onscreen. Their mother Robin Wright, also an actress, divorced Sean Penn in 2010.

I got into this project watching it because it’s my job, … it’s my boss, said Dylan Penn, adding that their relationship was very different in real life than John and Jennifer Vogel’s. Were both alpha, it can clash sometimes, but I think it ultimately worked.

Penn, who is also involved in philanthropy and has organized a COVID-19 testing and vaccination campaign and sites in the United States, lambasted former U.S. President Donald Trumps for handling the pandemic at the press conference.

When my team and I returned from testing and vaccination sites at night … to infuriating news – I really felt like there was someone with a machine gun slaughtering the most vulnerable communities from turret to turret. the White House, Penn said. .

He said the Trump administration’s main contribution to tackling the health crisis ahead of the late 2020 election was to pre-order doses of the vaccine.
