  • 12 Big Names from World Cinema in Conversation with Marrakech Audiences
    The 18th edition of the Marrakech International Film Festival runs from 29 November to 7 December 2019 12 BIG NAMES FROM WORLD CINEMA IN CONVERSATION WITH MARRAKECH AUDIENCES Rabat, 14 November 2019. The “Conversation with” section is one of the highlights of the Marrakech International Film Festival and returns during the 18th edition for some fascinating exchanges with some of those who create the magic of cinema around the world. As its name suggests, “Conversation with” is a forum for free-flowing discussion with some of the great names in international filmmaking. These sessions are free and open to all: industry professionals, journalists, and the general public. During last year’s festival, the launch of this new section was a huge hit with Moroccan and internatiojnal film lovers. More than 3,000 people attended seven conversations with some legendary names of the big screen, offering some intense moments with artists, who generously shared their vision and their cinematic techniques and delivered some dazzling demonstrations and fascinating anecdotes to an audience of cinephiles. After the success of the previous edition, the Festival is recreating the experience and expanding from seven to 11 conversations at this year’s event. Once again, some of the biggest names in international filmmaking have confirmed their participation at this major FIFM event. They include US director, actor, producer, and all-around legend Robert Redford, along with Academy Award-winning French actor Marion Cotillard. Multi-award-winning Palestinian director Elia Suleiman will also be in attendance, along with independent British producer Jeremy Thomas (The Last Emperor, Only Lovers Left Alive) and celebrated US actor Harvey Keitel, star of some of the biggest hits in cinema history including Thelma and Louise, The Piano, and Pulp Fiction.

  • L'académie Des César Rend Hommage À Jean-Pierre
    COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE Paris, le 25 avril 2019 L’ACADÉMIE DES CÉSAR REND HOMMAGE À JEAN-PIERRE MARIELLE Un monument du cinéma français vient de nous quitter. Cette carrure massive et ce franc-parler, au travers d’une voix chaude et grave, avaient fait de lui l’un des acteurs les plus populaires du cinéma français. Jean-Pierre Marielle était aussi et surtout un formidable interprète, qui incarnait ses rôles avec cet humour piquant et un certain cynisme qui lui étaient si propres. Jean-Pierre Marielle s’est retrouvé dès son plus Jeune âge parmi les futurs grands noms du cinéma, s’inscrivant lui-même au sein de cette incroyable génération : Jean-Paul Belmondo, Annie Girardot, Claude Rich, Françoise Fabian ou Jean Rochefort, font partie de ses camarades de classe au Conservatoire de Paris. Il se tourne tout d’abord vers le théâtre, avec un premier rôle dans une pièce de Molière, Le Mariage forcé, en 1953. Au cinéma, en 1964, il est aux côtés de Louis de Funès dans Faites sauter la banque de Jean Girault, et de Jean-Paul Belmondo dans Week-end à Zuydcoote d’Henri Verneuil. En 1969, il est auprès d’Yves Montand dans Le diable par la queue de Philippe de Broca. La décennie suivante le consacre comme un acteur incontournable des films populaires : Sex-shop de Claude Berri, La Valise de Georges Lautner, Comment réussir quand on est con et pleurnichard de Michel Audiard, Calmos de Bertrand Blier, Cause toujours… tu m’intéresses ! d’Edouard Molinaro, … Jean-Pierre Marielle ne cesse de tourner tandis que des rôles plus dramatiques s’offrent à lui, avec notamment Que la fête commence en 1975 et Coup de Torchon en 1981 de Bertrand Tavernier, Les Galettes de Pont-Aven de Joël Séria en 1975 pour lequel il est nommé pour le César du Meilleur Acteur lors de la toute première Cérémonie, Quelques jours avec moi de Claude Sautet en 1988, Uranus de Claude Berri ou encore l’inoubliable Tous les matins du monde réalisé par Alain Corneau en 1991, un rôle magnifique qui lui vaudra l’année suivante une nouvelle nomination pour le César du Meilleur Acteur.

  • English Language Notes to April and the Extraordinary World
    STUDIOCANAL and JE SUIS BIEN CONTENT present Original graphics creation Tardi Directed by Christian Desmares and Franck Ekinci Screenplay Franck Ekinci and Benjamin Legrand Based on an original idea from Benjamin Legrand Producers Marc Jousset, Franck Ekinci, Brice Garnier, Denis Delcampe Winner of the Cristal Award for feature film at the Annecy Animation Film Festival 2015 Runtime: 105 minutes FRENCH RELEASE: 4 NOVEMBER 2015 CONTACTS INTERNATIONAL MARKETING INTERNATIONAL PUBLICITY Jane Carter Delphine Vaquier [email protected] [email protected] Brittani Robinson [email protected] Images and Press materials: www.studiocanal.com SYNOPSIS Paris,1941. A family of scientists is on the brink of discovering a powerful invincibility serum when all of a sudden, the parents are mysteriously abducted, leaving their young daughter, April, behind. Ten years later, April is living alone with her precious cat, Darwin, continuing her family’s research. But soon, she finds herself at the center of a bizarre conspiracy. Along with Darwin and her trusted friend, Julius, April embarks on an adventure to find her parents and discover the truth behind their disappearance. INTERVIEW WITH JACQUES TARDI Did you feel that moving into animation with APRIL AND THE EXTRAORDINARY WORLD was an opportunity to see your graphic art and your work as a writer adapted more faithfully to the screen? Of course, provided you stay within the graphic world, and you’re not dealing with a reinterpretation of your character or casting an actress who cannot look like the heroine you drew. That said, in Luc Besson’s THE EXTRAORDINARY ADVENTURES OF ADÈLE BLANC-SEC, they used make-up and fake ears on the supporting cast to make them look like the original characters, which was pretty successful.
