The French have arrived! We bid bienvenue to another star-studded edition of Rendez-Vous with French Cinema last night at the Paris Theatre. On My Way, starring Catherine Deneuve, screened to a packed house that included directors, screenwriters, and stars whose work is featured in this year's critically praised lineup. Film Society was there with camera in hand to capture the night's festivities…
