valeria bruni-tedeschi special

France | 2007 | col | 107 mins | dir. Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi, with Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi, Louis Garrel, Noémie Lvovsky, Mathieu Amalric

In her second directorial outing, Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi is Marcelline – a radiant presence on stage, but in real life a guarded, single 40-year-old yearning for a child and a lover. Set against rehearsals for a production, with Mathieu Amalric as the egotistical director, and a smoldering Louis Garrel as the young, handsome costar, Actrices is delightfully personal, offbeat and uproariously funny.

Followed by Q&A with dir. Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi and lead actor Louis Garrel
