The Yellow Tie
« on: June 06, 2023, 08:57:31 AM »
Sean Bean, Miranda Richardson Join Composer Biopic ‘The Yellow Tie’ (EXCLUSIVE)
Quote
Sean Bean and Miranda Richardson are set to star alongside John Malkovich in the biopic of Romanian composer Sergiu Celibidache, Variety can reveal.

Also joining the cast is Ben Schnetzer (“The Book Thief”), who has replaced Rupert Friend after scheduling difficulties meant Friend had to drop out of the project. Schnetzer will play a young version of Celebidachi while Malkovich will play the composer later in life.

They will be joined by Kate Phillips (“Downton Abbey”), Anton Lesser (“Game of Thrones”) and Charlie Rowe (“Rocketman”).

“The Yellow Tie” tells the story of controversial classical conductor Sergiu Celibidache, one of Romania’s best known classical music artists. He battled homelessness and prejudice before becoming the youngest ever conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra.

Celibidache’s son, Serge Ioan Celebidachi, will direct from a screenplay he co-wrote with James Olivier.

Also joining the project are cinematographer Peter Menzies Jr. (“A Time to Kill”), costume designer Alessandro Lai (“Django”), hair and makeup designer Lynda Armstrong (“101 Dalmatians”) and production designer Vlad Vieru (“Django”). Kathryn Kluge and Kim Allen Kluge (“Silence”) have composed an original score to accompany the pic while Des Hamilton and Georgia Topley (“Jojo Rabbit”) are overseeing casting.

Adela Vrinceanu Celebidachi, Cristina Dobritoiu, Andrei Boncea, Christopher Milburn and James Olivier are producing with Robert W. Cort (“Mr. Holland’s Opus”) as executive producer.

“The Yellow Tie” is set to start shooting in in Bucharest, Romania later this month.

The film is the latest in a series of composer-inspired biopics, including Todd Field’s fictional “Tar,” starring Cate Blanchett, which came out last year, while “Maestro,” which features Bradley Cooper as Leonard Bernstein, is due to drop on Netflix later this year.

Sean Bean is taking on the role of composer Sergiu Celibidache's father.
Quote
Sergiu Celibidache was born on 28 June 1912 to Demostene Celebidachi, a cavalry officer of the Romanian army and later prefect of the Iași region and Maria Celebidachi (née Brăteanu), in Roman, a small city in the Moldavia region of Romania, where his father was a government official

Sean Bean & Miranda Richardson to Star in 'The Yellow Tie'
Quote
Biopics of musicians have been major Oscar contenders over the last few years. From Renee Zellweger as Judy Garland in Judy to Rami Malik as Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody, these have been the type of movies that straddle the line between popular fare that have done well in theaters (at least pre-pandemic) and Oscar glory. In 2022, Cate Blanchett also got nominations for playing the fictional classical maestro, Lydia Tar. Now we have a new film holding for awards attention, The Yellow Tie, a movie about real-life classical conductor/composer Sergiu Celibidache, and unsurprisingly, it comes with an all-star cast.

Though the film technically is led by American actor John Malkovich (The ABC Murders) and Ben Schnetzer (Y: The Last Man), who replaces the originally cast Rupert Friend) as Celibidache in his older and younger years, the rest of the cast is a who's who of PBS favorites. Sean Bean (World on Fire) will lead the cast and play Demostene Celibidache, the musician's father who wanted him to have a political career. Miranda Richardson (Good Omens) and Kate Phillips (Miss Scarlet & The Duke) play Ioana Celibidache at older and younger ages, the woman who becomes Sergiu's wife in the late 1960s.

Regarded as one of the greatest conductors of the 20th century, Sergiu Celibidache was not only a conductor and composer but musical theorist and teacher. Due to the shortage of de-Nazified conductors post World War II, he was appointed the principal conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic. He was also anti-recording, refusing to allow most of his performances to be released during his lifetime, insisting that the only way to experience it properly was live. During his tenure at the Munich Philharmonic, he also spent his later years accused of open sexism and discrimination against women.

Other cast listed for the project include Anton Lesser (Endeavour), Edward Hogg (Luther: The Fallen Son), Julian Firth (The Sister Boniface Mysteries), Brendan Howley (Ten Percent), Ewan Horrocks (Dominia),  and Charlie Rowe (Rocketman). Serge Ioan Celebidachi (the conductor's son) will helm the project from a script he co-wrote with James Olivier (Octav). Kathryn Kluge and Kim Allen Kluge (Silence) will compose an original score for the film.

The Yellow Tie is set to start filming in Romania in June 2023 and expected to debut in 2024

Sean Bean, interview for PRO TV News. The actor is filming in Romania for the film "The Yellow Tie"
He won an Emmy Award for Best Actor, two Bafta Awards, out of 3 nominations also for leading roles, and countless other accolades for his performance.

Quote
However, the whole planet recognizes actor Sean Bean for his roles in "The Lord of the Rings Trilogy" or "Game of Thrones". The British actor is filming these days in Romania for "The Yellow Tie", a film about the life of conductor Sergiu Celibidache, in which he plays his father in a complicated father-son relationship.

Sean Bean: "Game of Thrones, like Lord of the Rings, became such an international phenomenon, we didn't even realize it at the time of filming, we were in New Zealand, we knew they were big movies, but we didn't realize they were going to catch on with so many people all over the world, we made a lot of money. Which is good."

 Sean Bean is shooting these days in Romania for the feature film Yellow Tie. It will be Demosthenes, father of the famous conductor Sergiu Celibidache.

Amalia Enache: You play a Romanian with Greek origins, was it necessary to have a bigger nose?"

Sean Bean: "Oh, I already have a big one, I brought it with me."

Amalia Enache: Is Demosthenes a positive or negative character, considering that his son completely separated from him when he turned 18?

Sean Bean: "I think in those days, 1922 to 1970, in most countries and especially someone in the military was very strict with children. Children were not seen as they are now, they were considered as beings to be trained, taught, prepared to pursue an important career. Demosthenes wanted his son to follow in his footsteps and so tolerates him playing the piano, studying music a little, but expects more from him, to become a politician, even prime minister of Romania."

Amalia Enache: What was the biggest challenge in this role?

Sean Bean: "The very strange thing is that I like to play the piano, Bach, Mozart, many of classical music and, in fact, in this film I am very anti-music, I close the piano over Sergiu's fingers. Yes, during filming I am fascinated by how the music sounds, and I have to say: Quiet! Stop playing the piano, I'll slap his hands, close the piano, it's weird to play a character who's the opposite of you."

Amalia Enache: Will you have time and plans to visit something in Romania?

Sean Bean: "I don't have much time, I arrived here and started shooting immediately, but we would like, like everyone, to get to Transylvania, to see the castles, but it's quite a long and difficult road. It's a beautiful country and in Bucharest there are so many things to admire, the old buildings, it's interesting to see the buildings from the last century and then, right next door, those from the communist period."

The tough guy in the movies, who is said to most often die before the movie is over, is in real life not only a music lover, but also an avid gardener.

Sean Bean: "I have a lot of roses in my garden, I like their smell, I have 150 roses and I go among them to cut the dried parts, but I also have flowers that my mom and dad had in their garden, or my grandfather, old-fashioned plants."

SAG-AFTRA Waivers Allow Some Productions to Continue to Shoot in CEE
Quote
BUDAPEST: Three feature films received waivers from Screen Actors Guild – American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG - AFTRA) for shooting in CEE. Their shooting is taking place in Hungary and Romania.

These productions are A24’s Death of a Unicorn directed by Alex Scharfman and starring Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega, shooting in Budapest, Bryan Fuller's Dust Bunny starring Mads Mikkelsen and Sigourney Weaver, which is also shooting in Budapest, and Romanian/British coproduction The Yellow Tie by Serge Ioan Celebidachi, starring Ben Schnetzer, John Malkovich, Miranda Richardson and Sean Bean, which is currently shooting in Bucharest. The Yellow Tie is a coproduction between Romania’s Oblique Media Film and Celi Films (UK).

The list released by SAG - AFTRA on 18 July 2023 includes “productions that are signed to agreements within the scope of the strike order, but have signed Interim Agreements allowing them to resume. Members may work on these productions without being in violation of the strike order”.

The SAG - AFTRA strike, which has shut down productions globally, has had a major impact across the CEE region where servicing Hollywood productions is a big business.

SAG-AFTRA Strike: Which Movies and TV Shows Are Still in Production
Quote
Not every TV and film production will stop amid dual strikes by SAG-AFTRA and the Writers Guild of America. A host of projects stopped work after writers went on strike against media companies for better pay, streaming data transparency and protections against artificial intelligence (among other issues), and many more have paused since actors walked out on July 14.

There are exceptions, however. SAG-AFTRA’s strike rules allow for work on productions covered under different agreements, and the union can grant waivers or sign interim agreements with independent productions. Below is a list of TV shows and films that fall under those designations; this story will be updated as more productions earn waivers.

 The filming of Yellow Tie, the film about the life of the famous conductor Sergiu Celibidache, has ended
Quote
The producers and director of The Yellow Tie have announced the end of filming that took place this summer in locations in Bucharest and its surroundings.

Over 10,000 people attended the staging of historic concerts held by the renowned conductor in Philadelphia, Buenos Aires, Venice, Bucharest or Berlin. The symphonies of Anton Bruckner, Beethoven, Ravel and George Enescu were reinterpreted by the Romanian Youth Orchestra of the "Tinerimea Romanian" National Art Center, the "George Enescu" Philharmonic Orchestra, the "Paul Constantinescu" Philharmonic Orchestra Ploiesti, the Bucharest National Opera Symphony Orchestra, the Monica Calofir Symphony Orchestra.

At Rhapsody Romanian, recreated on the stage of the Bucharest Athenaeum, were present, as spectators, some of those who sang on the same stage with maestro Sergiu Celibidache in 1978, when he returned briefly to the country.


 The Yellow Tie will be released in fall 2024.

John Malkovich And Sean Bean Music Biopic ‘The Yellow Tie’ Heading To Cannes Market With VMI Worldwide
Quote
EXCLUSIVE: VMI Worldwide has boarded worldwide sales on The Yellow Tie, a biopic about the famed Romanian conductor Sergiu Celibidache starring John Malkovich, Sean Bean, and Ben Schnetzer.

Scott Freije and Julie Paquit at VMI are handling sales and will introduce the pic to buyers at the forthcoming Cannes market. The film is directed by Celibidache’s son, Serge Ioan Celebidachi, who also co-wrote the screenplay with James Olivier. The cast is rounded out by Kate Phillips, Miranda Richardson, and Charlie Rowe.

The film’s synopsis reads: The Yellow Tie follows the extraordinary life of Sergiu Celibidache, one of the most celebrated classical music conductors of the twentieth century. Brilliantly portrayed by John Malkovich and Ben Schnetzer, he was a unique artist, revered and misunderstood in equal measure. From his childhood in Romania under the draconian authority of a disciplinarian father (Sean Bean), to his painful flight from home to pursue his dream of a career in music, his struggle for survival in wartime Germany, and his rise, fall, and rise again, in an unimaginable career and life path, spanning seven decades and all four corners of the globe. This is the true story of a singular individual with a remarkable destiny. An artist’s battle against prejudice, compromise, convention, and commercialism. A man’s inspirational, lifelong quest to follow his dream and win the elusive acceptance of those dearest to his heart.

The film is produced by Adela Vrinceanu Celebidachi, Cristina Dobritoiu, Andrei Boncea, James Olivier, and Robert W Cort. The deal was negotiated by Jessica Bennett and Andre Relis on behalf of VMI and by Adela Vrinceanu Celebidachi and James Olivier on behalf of the film’s production company Oblique Media.

“The Yellow Tie is a harmoniously constructed picture telling the true journey of renowned artist Sergiu Celibidache,” Andre Relis, CEO of VMI Worldwide, said.

“What sets this film apart from all of the other classical movie biopics is the universal story-telling that is understood by all regardless of your music taste. The Yellow Tie deals with betrayal, love, and the journey of a man who craves validation from a father who has utter disdain for his son’s dedication to a career in the arts, many can relate to that. The film encompasses an impressive all-star cast each giving award-worthy performances. The Yellow Tie will be one of the many sought-after films at the market.”

Adela Vrinceanu Celebidachi added: “The Yellow Tie was a labor of love of almost six years. A labor that we feel has delivered the movie we had dreamt about. For this, we are grateful to a magnificent cast and crew that poured their hearts and souls into its making. Their commitment and dedication to helping us bring this incredible story to life is matched only by the inspirational, steadfast integrity of our main character in the pursuit of a dream. We believe audiences will feel equally uplifted. At a time of conflict and polarization, few stories have the power to unite and inspire. We are delighted to have found in VMI Worldwide a partner with similar beliefs that The Yellow Tie is a movie of universal appeal that belongs to the widest and most diverse audiences.”

John Malkovich Dons White Tie to Play Romanian Conductor Sergiu Celibidache in First Look Image from ‘The Yellow Tie’ (EXCLUSIVE)
Quote
John Malkovich has transformed into Romanian conductor Sergiu Celibidache in first look images from biopic “The Yellow Tie.”

“The Yellow Tie” is part of a new spate of conductor biopics that also includes “Tar” and “Maestro.” The film, which VMI Worldwide will introduce to buyers in Cannes, spans seven decades of Celibidache’s life, with Ben Schnetzer (“3 Body Problem”) playing the musical virtuoso in his youth as he battles personal and global instability to become the youngest ever conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra and eventually one of the world’s most celebrated conductors.
For the role, Malkovich conducted a concert in Bucharist surrounded by 4,300 extras.

“The Lord of the Rings” star Sean Bean plays Celibidache’s harsh father, who throws out his son after discovering he wants to pursue a career in classical music, while Miranda Richardson (“Good Omens”) appears as Celibidache’s wife Iona. Kate Phillips (“Wolf Hall”) plays Iona in her youth.
