Lux Aeterna Latest Celebrity News & Gossip

This review of “Lux Aeterna” was first published on May 20, 2019, after its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival.Cinematic provocateurs have flourished at the Cannes Film Festival for years, with everyone from Jean-Luc Godard to Lars von Trier coming to the Croisette with works designed to provoke, confront or even annoy an audience. At this year’s festival, you could say that some of the extreme sections of Nicolas Winding Refn’s “Too Old to Die Young” have been designed to test an audience’s limits and make viewers uncomfortable.But nobody does provocation these days quite like Gaspar Noe does.

Four years, two films, and one near-fatal experience after his last feature, writer-director Gaspar Noé has a lot to share. The experimental Argentinian filmmaker – who’s built his career in France over the past 25 years – had a brain hemorrhage in between the 2019 Cannes midnight premiere of “Lux Aeterna,” his assaulting, intellectual 52-minute strobe light thriller about a witch shoot from hell, and the making of his next film “Vortex,” a patient, heartrending, nearly two-and-a-half-hour dementia drama.

Brent Lang Executive Editor of Film and MediaYellow Veil Pictures has acquired all North American rights to Gaspar Noé’s meta mockumentary “Lux Aeterna.” The studio is planning a theatrical release for the film this spring. “Lux Aeterna” made its world premiere at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival and was later selected for the Tribeca Film Festival prior to its cancellation due to the pandemic.“Lux Aeterna” unfolds backstage at a French film production and is stylistically daring, in the manner of many of Noé’s movies.

Summer has arrived early courtesy of Saint Laurent and Gaspar Noe. The provocative filmmaker teamed with the luxury and trend-setting fashion house on a moody and slightly spooky new short film, Summer of '21, that showcases Anthony Vaccarello's upcoming collection.

Before the trailer for “Inception” introduced the world to the bassy, brassy “braaaams” that dominated movie trailers for years, there was one song that could be heard in virtually every movie trailer of the early ’00s, Clint Mansell‘s “Lux Aeterna.” Now, to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Darren Aronofsky‘s gut-punching “Requiem for a Dream,” Lionsgate has released a new recording of the iconic song.
