It argues that the biopic is a necessary category because producers, reviewers and cinemagoers have significant investments in biographical subjects, and because biopics construct a ‘public history’ for a broad audience.

S.A.R. La Princesse de Hanovre, Présidente de la Fondation Princesse Grace, a demandé à son ami Karl Lagerfeld d’imaginer cette nouvelle édition du Bal de la Rose. Ensemble, ils ont composé un univers Art Déco, célébrant ainsi l’un des plus élégants mouvements artistiques et architecturaux. Indissociable de l’univers du luxe, le style Art Déco incarne une délicate alchimie entre l’art et l’artisanat. Il vise avant tout élégance, sobriété et rareté, séduisant ainsi une clientèle raffinée durant les années 30. Le Bal de la Rose 2015 se réinvente sous le prisme d'une esthétique Art Déco et retranscrit les grands principes distinctifs de l’authentique Salle des Arts du Sporting d’Hiver de Monaco: mariage d’une simplification des formes, à la stylisation des motifs à la fois entremêlées et purement géométriques.

    A Sony Pictures Classics Release Official Selection: 2010 Cannes Film Festival | 2010 Telluride Film Festival 2010 Toronto International Film Festival Total Runtime: 111 minutes | MPAA: Rated R | Release Date: 10/8/2010 (NY &LA) East Coast Publicity West Coast Publicity Distributor IHOP Block Korenbrot Sony Pictures Classics Jeff Hill Rebecca Fisher Carmelo Pirrone 853 7th Avenue, #3C Melody Korenbrot Lindsay Macik New York, NY 10019 110 S. Fairfax Ave, #310 550 Madison Ave 212-265-4373 tel Los Angeles, CA 90036 New York, NY 10022 323-634-7001 tel 212-833-8833 tel 323-634-7030 fax 212-833-8844 fax 2 SYNOPSIS Summary Based on Posy Simmonds’ beloved graphic novel of the same name (which was itself inspired by Thomas Hardy’s classic Far From the Madding Crowd) this wittily modern take on the romantic English pastoral is a far cry from Hardy’s Wessex. Tamara Drewe’s present-day English countryside—stocked with pompous writers, rich weekenders, bourgeois bohemians, a horny rock star, and a great many Buff Orpington chickens and Belted Galloway cows—is a much funnier place. When Tamara Drewe sashays back to the bucolic village of her youth, life for the locals is thrown upside down. Tamara—once an ugly duckling—has been transformed into a devastating beauty (with help from plastic surgery). As infatuations, jealousies, love affairs and career ambitions collide among the inhabitants of the neighboring farmsteads, Tamara sets a contemporary comedy of manners into play using the oldest magic in the book—sex appeal. Synopsis Stonefield and Winnards are neighboring farms in the lush, lovely West country of England.
