‘Brother And Sister’ Trailer: Marion Cotillard, Melvil Poupaud & Golshifteh Farahani Star In Arnaud Desplechin’s New Cannes Drama

“The Five Devils,” from French director Léa Mysius, captivates from its very first seconds. We see Adèle Exarchopoulos in a sparkling gymnast outfit with other similarly dressed girls, all watching an enormous fire in the background; when she turns around, she is crying — fire, beauty, passion and death all conveyed in one image.

The films of French filmmaker Quentin Dupieux are at their best when they combine his penchant for ludicrous but simple what-if scenarios, with his perceptive eye for humor in everyday life and banal interactions. He would probably hate his cinema to be pinned down in this way: though he has proven that he can subscribe to straightforward storytelling with “Deerskin” (which premieres at Cannes in 2019) and “Incredible But True” (Berlinale 2022), the French director and absurdist also enjoys leaving the demands of logical plot developments behind in favor of a freer style.

There aren’t many artists that can traverse generations as David Bowie did. The artist continued to make music until the day he died back in 2016.

French writer/director Alice Winocour was interested in the connection between the body and the mind before it was cool. Her feature debut “Augustine” (2012) told the story of a supposedly “hysterical” woman and her doctor in 19th century France, while “Disorder” (2015) centered on a soldier-turned bodyguard suffering from PTSD.

There’s a lot happening at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival right now and so many big stars stepped out for photo calls during day five.

“When you want to film a fire, you need to be in the place where the first flame is produced.” So says the disembodied voice of Patricio Guzmán as he recalls a piece of advice received early in his filmmaking career by his mentor, French multimedia artist Chris Marker. In this case, the fire is the Estallido Social, a series of colossal protests and riots that started in the capital city of Santiago and rapidly spread across Chile at the end of 2019.

Arnaud Desplechin’s latest film superficially resembles some of his most beloved and best work, family dramas featuring very colorful, neurotic, sometimes impulsive characters by turn extremely sincere and sardonic, loquacious and secretive — films such as “My Sex Life… or How I Got Into an Argument” (1996) and “A Winter’s Tale” (2008). But unlike them, “Brother and Sister” is also a puzzle, even if the director does not make it easy for us to solve it.

Cannes Film Festival. The French actress, 46, turned heads in a striking head-to-toe Chanel look at the premiere of her new movie Brother And Sister (Frère et Soeur). Marion, who is an ambassador for the luxury French brand, beamed for the cameras in the sheer ensemble, posing up a storm before heading inside to the swanky screening.

Guy Lodge Film CriticWhatever other flaws “Brother and Sister” may have, you absolutely cannot accuse it of being slow to build. Within its first 10 minutes, two estranged siblings bawl each other out at a dead child’s wake, one declaring the other “an indecent monster”; a screechingly staged single-vehicle car crash imperils an elderly couple and paralyzes a teenage driver; then, a barrelling truck at the scene brings further tragedy.

Where to begin with Arnaud Desplechin’s newest drama film Brother and Sister starring Marion Cotillard and Melvil Poupaud. Written by Desplechin and Julie Peyr the story follows two estranged siblings  who haven’t seen each other in years. The movie chronicles their journey from the start of their relationship, to where things went wrong, through the present day and how the tension between them nearly destroyed their family.

Anne Hathaway is channeling one of her most iconic characters. On Thursday, the 39-year-old actress stepped out for a screening of her new flick, , at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival, and gave off serious Mia Thermopolis vibes.Hathaway stunned on the red carpet in a custom, white Giorgio Armani Privé gown that included a train and oversized bow.

Elsa Keslassy International CorrespondentOscar-winning producer and activist Marion Cotillard is joining forces with filmmaker Cyril Dion and producer Magali Payen to launch Newtopia, a production company which will aim at delivering movies, series and shorts with socially relevant themes. The Paris-based company’s first slate of ambitious projects include Dion’s geopolitical thriller “Le grand vertige,” and “Francoise,” a prestige English-language mini-series about the flamboyant life of Françoise d’Eaubonne, a leading feminist writer and activist who created the concept of ecofeminism.

Woody Allen, Gerard Depardieu and Johnny Depp all walk into a restaurant.That’s not the beginning of a bad joke — the three controversial men are looming over a favorite eatery in the South of France, and have been for years.La Pizza Cresci, a famous spot frequented for decades by Hollywood players who have visited the Cannes Film Festival, has immortalized the trio in a large mural of cinema legends.The portrait is on the restaurant’s second floor, opposite sweeping views of the French Riviera.
