CANCELED – Free Talk: Louis Garrel
Rendez-Vous with French Cinema 2023
March 2 - 12, 2023
Please note: Please note that due to a scheduling conflict, this Free Talk has been canceled.
By the time multi-hyphenate talent Louis Garrel made his directorial debut with Two Friends (Rendez-Vous 2016), followed just two years later by NYFF56 selection A Faithful Man, he had already cemented his status as one of the most acclaimed French actors of his generation. In this career-spanning conversation moderated by filmmaker Owen Kline (Funny Pages), we’ll explore Garrel’s distinctive sensibility, his thematic and stylistic interests, and the ways in which his work as an actor informs, and is shaped by, his process behind the camera.
See Louis Garrel’s The Innocent on March 4 & 8 and Philippe Garrel’s The Plough, starring Louis Garrel, on March 4 & 12.
