Back at the Venice Film Festival with Andrew Garfield starrer “Mainstream,” presented in the Horizons section, Gia Coppola took part in the “Life Through a Different Lens: Contactless Connections” …
took part in the “Life Through a Different Lens: Contactless Connections” talk on Friday – following in the footsteps of Demi Moore and Nadine Labaki. During the chat, hosted by the festival and Mastercard, she looked back on her first visit with feature debut “Palo Alto” in 2013. “It feels sentimental,” she admitted. “But hopefully also like a good new tradition!”
“I find inspiration in talking to people, reading books, photography. Even having a beer with friends can ignite inspiration. You never know! With ‘Mainstream’ in particular, I felt it really ignited when I saw [Elia Kazan’s] ‘A Face in the Crowd.’ Or when I talked to my friend, who was working with social influencers, about what it meant and the popularity behind this world that I didn’t quite understand. I tend to navigate towards things I find scary. I am not brave, I just can’t help it.
