ANORA: Behind the Scenes of the 2025 Oscar Winner for Best Picture
Podcast: Hollywood GoldPublished On: Wed Mar 05 2025
Description: Producer Alex Coco takes us behind the scenes of the making of the Cannes Film Festival Palme d'Or winner and recent winner of the Acadamy's Best Picture award, Anora. Alex reflects on his collaboration with director Sean Baker, revealing how flexibility with the script led to a more authentic and organic storytelling experience, including a spontaneous real-life double rainbow that was written its own scene. He also discusses one of the most important components behind Anora’s success: handpicking the right cast, focusing on who was truly suited for each role over star power. This approach led to the critical casting of Mikey Madison, who played a pivotal role in earning the film the highest honor at Cannes. Congratulations to Anora for its Oscar success! Hosted on Acast.
