Audrey Tautou Remembers Late Filmmaker Claude Miller At Cannes
28 May 2012 1:06 AM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »
French actress Audrey Tautou is upset late moviemaker Claude Miller missed out on seeing his new movie Therese Desqueyroux at the Cannes Film Festival because they planned to attend the event together.
Miller passed away last month, just weeks after he finished editing the movie, which stars Tautou and Gilles Lellouche.
Cannes bosses announced Therese Desqueyroux would close the annual film festival in France in tribute to Miller, and Tautou admits it was a sombre experience walking the red carpet on Sunday without her friend.
She tells the Associated Press, "Claude really gave us a life lesson on the shoot of Therese. When you see the film he made - brilliant and unrelenting - you think how crazy it is that a film like that could be made with such simplicity."
Recalling some of her final conversations with Miller, she adds, "I remember... The thing is, right until the end his eyes would sparkle. He was so bright and passionate.
"We'd talk about movies, about Therese. Oh, we'd talk about Cannes! He said when we go to Cannes, we'll have to dress nicely." »
Therese Desqueyroux Closed Cannes Film Festival

Guess we’re all interested in the upcoming Therese D or Thérèse Desqueyroux movie, which closed Cannes Film Festival, simply because it stars Audrey Tautou, best known to us from the 2001′ French movie Amelie. Directed by Claude Miller, this movie centers on a woman trapped in a disappointing marriage who tries to reclaim her freedom [...]

Bérénice Bejo, who opened the 65th Cannes Film Festival, hosted the closing ceremonies, on the stage of the Grand Lumière Theater, along with Audrey Tautou and Adrien Brody. The big prize went to Michael Haneke‘s Amour (Love), a meditation on old age and loss that was an odd’s-on favorite going into the end of the week. Grand Prix, essentially 2nd place, went to Matteo Garrone‘s Reality causing some strong reactions, positively and negatively in the theater. That film was received variously by critics and some startlingly claimed that the jury president, Nanni Moretti, a fellow Italian, had more to do with Garrone receiving the accolade, than the film itself.

Palme d’Or: Amour (Love) by Michael Haneke

Out of the 22 films in competition, the Palme d’Or was awarded to Amour (Love) by Michael Haneke. Michael Haneke received his award from Adrien Brody and Audrey Tautou.

One day, Anne has an attack. The couple’s bond of love is severely tested.
Winner of 2009′s Palme d’Or for The White Ribbon, Haneke said afterwards at the press conference, “The story I tell is based on the promise my wife and I made to each other: not to separate »

Audrey Tautou Gets To 'The Darker Side Of Humanity'
27 May 2012 2:11 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Cannes, France — Actress Audrey Tautou, known for her sweet and light roles in such films as "Amelie," praised the late director Claude Miller as a "bright and passionate" filmmaker who helped her turn in a darker direction in his final film.
The French star plays a husband-poisoner in Miller's "Therese Desqueyroux," which closed the Cannes Film Festival on Sunday at a special screening celebrating the lauded New Wave filmmaker, who died last month of cancer at age 70.
The contemporary of Francois Truffaut, whose large body of work includes 1998's Cannes Jury Prize winner "Class Trip," helped Tautou to take on the role in the adaptation of Francois Mauriac's novel about a frustrated wife who slowly tries to kill her husband with arsenic to get freedom.
The gritty role, and Miller's acuity and patience, helped her unlock her inner dark side.

Or will someone we've barely heard of and paid almost no attention to sweep to victory? Join us to find out who will win the Cannes film festival's most prestigious prize, the Palme d'Or
6.23pm: Hello and welcome to the climactic moments of Cannes 2012, which will reach its crescendo in little over an hour from now, when the Palme d'Or, the Golden Palm, is bestowed by Nanni Moretti and his panel of jurors.
Rather appropriately, the skies have opened over Cannes: thunder and lightning are crashing over the Croisette and rain is pounding on the Palais. It's a suitable backdrop for the anointing of a new presiding genius, a magician of cinema. Will it be Michael Haneke, whose Amour has wowed the critics? Or might Leos Carax, »

Cannes Review: 'Therese Desqueyroux' Starring Audrey Tautou Is A Banal Version Of 'Masterpiece Theater'
26 May 2012 12:45 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
"Therese Desqueyroux," the closing night selection for this year's main competition lineup at the Cannes Film Festival, is not the nuanced period drama it should be but rather a banal, pseudo-thoughtful and monotonous episode of "Masterpiece Theater." Co-adapted by director Claude Miller ("A Secret," "Class Trip"), the latest adaptation of Francois Mauriac's acclaimed novel reduces the titular heroine's story to a troubled individual's struggle to remain autonomous as a member of her oppressive husband’s family. The phrase, "For the family" is bludgeoned into viewers' heads to the point where it's very easy to ignore the fact that Therese (Audrey Tautou) is more than just a proto-desperate housewife. In fact, she's a fatalist because she's also an atheist, a complex concept that Miller sets up but doesn't follow through on.
Ultimately, Miller's Therese rebels against her boorish husband Bernard (Gilles Lellouche) and his insensitive family simply because she needs to do something--anything, »

New Trailer, Poster & Images For Michel Gondry's 'The We And The I'; Wacky Set Photos From His Next Effort 'Mood Indigo'
15 May 2012 9:27 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
Update: The trailer has now arrived for the film and it actually looks like a warm, tender and funny character piece. In short, it looks great.
After dipping his toes in studio waters for "The Green Hornet," Michel Gondry is headed to Cannes to unveil his much more lo-fi/indie "The We & The I," a mysterious project that will follow a group of high school kids on the bus home on the last day of school. But the ever-busy helmer is also in the midst of shooting his next effort, "Mood Indigo, " which -- if the set photos are anything to go by -- will see Gondry firmly in his unique and creative wheelhouse.
Set to premiere on Thursday in the Directors' Fortnight sidebar, "The We & I" has mostly been kept under wraps, with rumors of time-travel and sci-fi elements kicking around. We'll soon find out how it all adds up, »

Top 20 Alternative Picks for Cannes 2012: Gyorgy Palfi’s Final Cut – Ladies & Gentlemen
15 May 2012 7:20 AM, PDT | ioncinema | See recent ioncinema news »
Final Cut – Ladies & Gentlemen – György Pálfi
Buzz: Once upon a time, György Pálfi made a splash at the Toronto International Film Festival with an elegant, plotless film called Hukkle. When he followed it up with the divisive but still acclaimed Taxidermia, all of a sudden Béla Tarr wasn’t the only active Hungarian filmmaker that your Average Joe cinephile could name off the top of his head. A few years passed, he whiffed big time with I am Not Your Friend, and now a few more years have past. György who?? That this newest work has been relegated to the Closing Night duties of the Cannes Classics sidebar hopefully won’t deter too many from giving it a fair shot, because at the very least, it’s already confirmed that this very talented man is continuing to push himself in new, experimental directions with his work, refusing to go with »

'The Raven', 'Five-Year Engagement', And More: Double Feature Friday!

This week at the movies may be remembered by future generations as "the weekend before 'The Avengers' came out," but there are a few movies worth checking out this weekend, "Sound of My Voice" being the clear standout of the group. If you're looking for some movies to watch this weekend, we've got your playlist.
Check out this week's Double Feature Friday!
Perhaps before heading to the theater to learn about Edgar Allen Poe's favorite bird, you can check out a different gothic feathered friend. Director Alex Proyas made a name for himself as a visual stylist with this comic book adaptation. The story of a murdered rock star, who rises from the dead for revenge, is remembered most for being the movie where Brandon Lee died. (The commercial for the Blu-ray re-release grossly brags that it's Lee's "final tragic performance.") Lee's performance is definitely one worth seeking out, »
