The team of the film “the Odyssey” answered questions “cinema Industry”
Jacques-Yves Cousteau – the figure is truly massive: he made an invaluable contribution to the study of the oceans, and largely thanks to him in the twentieth century did the idea of environmental protection: for Cousteau no one expressed the slightest concern about this. The Director of “the Odyssey” by Jerome Salle has given this aspect a special place in his film.
Directed by jérôme Salle explains that in his film he showed a person Cousteau at a very unusual angle:the People of that generation said that natural resources are inexhaustible… I wanted to show how Cousteau sudden changes in opinion on this subject, and he realizes that the world he discovered, which he won and which he was going to exploit – and at the time he cooperated with the oil companies – is in great danger. And I show this through his emotional and sometimes conflictual relationship with her son, who belongs to another generation and some things, of course, feels keener than his father.”
The report from the “film industry”
The great oceanographer was, by today’s standards, not the most ideal father. He and his wife Simone were great adventurers, fully captured by his dream, and therefore could easily send their son to boarding school to travel. In the environment of the French bourgeoisie of that time it was not considered something shocking, but definitely left an imprint on family relationships.
The role of the artist Philippe Cousteau – Pierre niña – admitted that under certain circumstances could not be removed in the “Odyssey”:I would not began to appear in this picture, if its purpose was just to show sort of perfectly composed figure Cousteau. I think that through his son, the film shows the faults of the father, sometimes to sacrifice family, children. But at the same time in front of us – a dreamer who was immersed in sea water with scuba gear and do wonderful things! Very interesting this duality, and, in my opinion, the film elected a good view”.

Jacques-Yves Cousteau lived an exciting life full of adventure. However, not all of it was happy and rosy. Relationships with family were given quite difficult – they sometimes had to leave for a few weeks.
Audrey Tautou, who starred in “the Odyssey” spouse Jacques-Yves Cousteau – Simon – sure her character had nothing to do with my loneliness:When I was talking about loneliness, I thought of the loneliness that accompanied the Simon entire life because her husband left when he wanted, it was not possible to hold it, she knew it, and couldn’t suffer. But I think that these two people have lived together the whole life, which was a lot of tenderness”.
