If go to the theater or the movies you can tell there is so much need, you know, to be celebrating and to be together and to be celebrating art also like we’re doing here today and being part of Tribeca once again. And it always feels like a big privilege. But this year, think even more for the reasons that you were saying. And also, we’re coming with that film that I like very much, a film called ’Official Competition,’ where I play this very, very crazy egomaniac director and I had a lot of fun playing her, and the movie’s been received very well everywhere in the world, and we’re very happy to bring it here, finally.“ 6.

So I feel like I’m finally on a real big hit show, even though it’s been over for 10 years. So it’s exciting for all of us because we were on a show that people liked, but it was not a phenomenon and it is now. So I really appreciate it. I think it’s fun.“ 8. Various Lucy Boynton posing for photos 9. SOUNDBITE (English) Lucy Boynton, actor: “So I spent the last few days sitting in a dark cinema, watching film after film. And I mean, it’s been such an education, just seeing the eclectic stories that want to be told and the very, very different approaches of telling them right from the way that the films are shot and the cinematography to the kind of the acting and the approach to the narrative. So it’s been amazing.“ 10. SOUNDBITE (English) Justin Bartha, actor - on “National Treasure“: “You know, I played this character, Riley Poole, and I went back and I did an episode with the new cast and it was a lot of fun. I used to be the youngest guy on set and now I was not the youngest guy on set. So it was an speaking of evolution. There you go. 11. Various Justin Bartha posing for photos 12.
