During a visit in Tehran by Juliette Binoche, Abbas Kiarostami told Binoche the synopsis of Certified Copy as a casual anecdote, which she said that she fully believed until he confessed to having made it up. According to Kiarostami, studying the reactions of Binoche as she listened to the story was a vital part of the film's further development.
In her acceptance speech for Best Actress at the Cannes Film Festival, Juliette Binoche took the opportunity to highlight the plight of another Iranian director, Jafar Panahi, who is under house arrest by the Iranian regime.
Abbas Kiarostami on why Juliette Binoche and William Shimell speak directly to the camera: "My aim was to have Juliette speak directly to the male spectators in the audience - it was as if I wanted them seated just in front of William - and to do the same with him and the women in the audience."
Abbas Kiarostami is normally known for making films with amateur actors and almost no budget, but said he had no difficulties in making the transition to European cinema: "This was the simplest film for me to work on-even more simple than the work I've done on my shorts, because I was working with a professional team both in front of and behind the camera." He also noted how he for once felt free to express whatever he wanted in the film.
William Shimell initially baulked at the idea of taking part in the film as he was nervous about the number of lines and monologues he'd have to memorize.
"James Miller: It seems to me that the human race is the only species who have forgotten the whole purpose of life, the whole meaning of existence is to have fun, to have pleasure. And here is someone who's found their own way to do it. We shouldn't judge them for it. If they're happy and enjoying life, we should congratulate them, not criticize them."
"James Miller: I'm afraid there's nothing very simple about being simple."
