Mrs. Halvadjian, how did it come about that you became a stylist actor of the caliber of John Travolta?
- Two weeks ago I called Les Weldon (producer, which led the country stars such as Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger - br). This day was just before John Travolta arrives in Bulgaria.
Actually Les, with whom I worked for his other films, he thought with Maggie (husband Kremena - br) we went to the U.S.. Les called me asking him to recommend a good stylist for Travolta. And understand that we are in Bulgaria, invited me. I refused, because very worried. I am not of those who handle much and want at all costs to achieve something.
But Les made me see an hour after I had already scored the film. Actually I had less than one day available to get into the style of the movie "Killing Season" and decide how to look Travolta. Where the action is set during the war in Bosnia, and Travolta plays Serb. The film was already nearly filmed in Bulgaria and had to shoot 3 more scenes. One was the "Serbian" bar where Travolta teamed up with Diana and Kalin Lyubenova Sarmenov.
Diana was barmaid spoke fluent Serbian, and John Travolta in January boasted that's a great actress. He had to speak in broken English. The role of Robert De Niro is an American who is trying to kill him, but without success.
- How does the John Travolta but underwear?
- I want to emphasize that my meeting with the actors was a real lesson in professionalism! And that Travolta seems perfect in his underwear is safe. But I think that's insulting to comment on this because it is the last thing that is important in my work.
- Were there any claim to the vision that was offered?
- No! During these three days, and he and De Niro filmed 12 hours a day. Morning started work at 7:30 am, do not smoke, eat only healthy food. Their lunch was exactly 13.30 seconds a day before filming Robert De Niro monologue in closeup - a monster. Everyone in the studio was bristling. Became 13.30 pm, he came out of the image, went to eat seconds and then again it was a monstrous character.
And while Robert De Niro arrived in Bulgaria with a hairdresser, makeup artist and stylist, which came from Paris, probably shooting of another film he Travolta rely entirely on the film crew here.
- Were you able to speak something with them?
- They say there's no time for that! But yes, De Niro asked about Vitosha, said that what little is seen of Sofia, he liked. Travolta and Robert De Niro are friends, but for those three days I saw them talking just 2 minutes while waiting to adjust the camera for a scene in the woods. No "let's drink some coffee," not "what you do" - no such thing!
When DeNiro filming the scene in the forest, holding a gun to Travolta, he lay on a stone more than 20 minutes without comment, without fussing without protest ...
The director asked him to remove the least amount of hair. Hairdresser came and began to shape it does not respond. If it had a Bulgarian star psychotherapist will need to convince her that you need to cut hair ... 2
I think actors are native obsession extremely confused director, while they spoke softly, terribly small and just did the work like clockwork. Jump aliens!
- With the exception of two Hollywood aces with any popular person in the country you are tripping easiest?
- I always said that the man with whom my most enjoyable work is Gala. From the first moment we met 12 years ago, she felt that I was the man to consult it for its style, and stopped to comment on anything. Even after so much time, it can and will be dressed just as well as if I intervene (Laughs). Gala approaches everything with great professionalism.
