A month before Kevin Costner puts the first installment of his multi-chapter Western “Horizon: An American Saga” into theaters, the actor-director came to the Cannes Film Festival to unveil his self-financed passion project.
LIVE RADAR: Isolated strong storms move inland and beaches during Saturday afternoonThis week’s Insider Deals are so good you’ll want all of them Kevin Costner poses for a portrait photograph for the film 'Horizon: An American Saga' at the 77th international film festival, Cannes, southern France, Saturday, May 18, 2024. “Two of my boys are out fishing right now,” Costner said with a grin in an interview at the Carlton Hotel. “And the three girls found their way onto a boat.
“I thank God for Cannes. I’m an independent filmmaker, essentially, and I’m here by myself," said Costner, whose film was to premiere Sunday."So this is a high moment for me because it’s helping me create awareness for a movie. I don’t have all the money in the world to expose this movie. But I have my time and a platform here.
COSTNER: No, it wasn’t an easy decision, but it was the decision I needed to make. It’s like, wow, why am I having to do this? I think I’m making mainstream entertainment. I don’t know what you felt about the movie but I felt like it’s really mainstream. I don’t feel that I’m an avant-garde type of a person. But yet I think my things are a little off. I’m willing to see a woman bathe because her desire to be clean was so pronounced.
AP: In dramatizing the drive West of settlers, what was the Native American perspective you wanted to consider? COSTNER: When they weren’t useful, they were just cast away. And they had to create a sense of community and they came en masse. They came together and they were very industrious. They’ll be the wealthiest people in that town until there’s a tipping point and racism kicks in and suddenly they’re gone, too. You watch. That’s what would happen in real life.
