The international film community is in mourning for the one who offered them Dallas Buyers Club, Wild and Big Little Lies, among other great successes.
On Instagram, actress Shailene Woodley shared, late Sunday evening, her dismay following the announcement of the death of filmmaker Jean-Marc Vallée. “I’m in shock, complete and utter shock. My God, death is the worst thing, ”she wrote.
The text is accompanied by an intimate photograph of the director of Big Little Lies – in which Shailene Woodley played – which can be recognized by her silhouette and her silvery hair.
“That doesn’t make sense, man. It does not make sense. Maybe when we wake up tomorrow you’ll be there laughing and saying it was just a satirical short. It is not real. ”
Broadcaster HBO, which produced the hit series Big Little Lies and Sharp Objects, said he was also upset by his sudden death.
“Jean-Marc Vallée was a brilliant and fiercely dedicated filmmaker, a truly phenomenal talent who infused every scene with a deeply visceral emotional truth. He was also an extremely caring man who fully invested himself alongside each actor he directed, ”the broadcaster said in a statement.
On the night of December 25, Jean-Marc Vallée died suddenly in a chalet in the Quebec region. He was 58 years old.
