Interesting guy and also an interesting actor in that he is extremely reactive rather than an actor who forwards the momentum........not only an actor but a director, an original screenwriter, an adapter of novels, etc Kings and Queen (2004) another Desplechin film is a good place to get a handle on him - though he dabbles in so much getting a handle on him can be difficult Like all kind hearted workaholic people........ a coffee addict in his movies often actually  |

I watched My Sex Life... or How I Got Into an Argument and while I loved Amalric and Emmanuelle Devos in it (they're even better in Kings and Queen), I didn't necessarily buy the characters or the relationships... But one thing to say about Desplechin - the soundtracks for his films are always incredible.  |

Definitely not for all tastes........his pacing is a ......always a problem for me ............btw: Desplechin making a movie with my beloved Léa Seydoux and Sofia Coppola cousin Jason Schwarzman: A report from Ecran Total confirms that Léa Seydoux, Jason Schwartzman, John Turturro, and Golshifteh Farahani will star in “The Thing That Hurts,” which has just secured financing with Belgian money. |

The *that guy!* of European cinema. Have you liked what you've seen of his acting?  I guess his most essential performances as an actor would be... My Sex Life... or How I Got Into an Argument
Alice and Martin
Late August, Early September
Kings & Queen
Munich
The Diving Bell and the Butterfly
A Christmas Tale
Quantum of Solace
The Grand Budapest Hotel
Venus in FurEdit: pacinoyes Mattsby HELENA MARIA - Are there others you guys would definitely recommend? I'm particularly fond of his work in Xavier Giannoli's Cannes- and César-winning short film, L'Interview - it's a must for fans of Giannoli, Amalric, and Ava Gardner.  |

He's one of my favorite authors films Emmanuel Carrère's La Moustache - though not the lead - and that's a better story (absurist btw) than a film.......though everybody shoudl read or see everything by Emmanuel Carrère - who wrote imo the greatest true crime book of all time (The Adversary) which was turne into a pretty good film with Daniel Auteuil..............he's IN a lot of stuff like that where he's not the lead but makes the most of a few scenes..........he even pops up in An Officer an A Spy too.........all those are interesting - even great films but you have to be on La Moutrache's absurdist wavelength......... |
