*** #tafffcinema *** WATCH IT AT HOME THROUGH THE TAFFF LIBRARY, STARTING TOMORROW (7/26): STAY WITH US: A docu-comedy co-written and directed by Gad Elmaleh, starring Gad Elmaleh, Régine Elmaleh, David Elmaleh, Judith Elmaleh, Pierre-Henry Salfati, Delphine Horvilleur, Rony Kramer, Roschdy Zem. Official Selection The French Comedy Club in Los Angeles. A Film Movement release. In US theatres since May 10. Available on digital in the US starting on July 26. In French with English subtitles.

(After three successful years living and working in America, French-Jewish actor and comedian Gad Elmaleh decides to move back home to Paris. He misses his family and friends. Or, at least that’s what Gad tells his loving yet overbearing parents, Régine and David. However, it’s not long before his parents find out the true reason for their son’s return — after a long period of ambivalence towards his own Jewishness, Gad has officially decided to convert to Catholicism. Dumbfounded by his sudden obsession with the Virgin Mary, and with only five weeks before his baptism, Gad’s family endeavor to bring him back to Judaism for fear of losing him forever. Inspired by the director’s own fraught relationship to the Jewish faith and starring Elmaleh’s real-life family, Stay With Us is a heart-warming and charming story about faith, family and acceptance.)

*** #tafffcinema *** CLASSIC OF THE WEEK (#2) *** SPECIAL 40TH ANNIVERSARY - PALME DOR WINNER CANNES 1984 *** WATCH IT AT HOME THROUGH THE TAFFF LIBRARY: PARIS TEXAS  (1984) a Drama, Romance, Classic written by Sam Shepard & L.M. Kit Carson. Directed by Wim Wenders. Starring: Harry Dean Stanton, Nastassja Kinski, Hunter Carson, Dean Stockwell, Aurore Clément, Bernhard Wicky, Edward Faytown, Sam Berr. Official Competition Cannes International Film Festival 1984 (Palme d’Or winner) & 2014 (30th anniversary presentation). Official Selection COLCOA 2015 (Classic Series – Restored version). In English. A Century Fox release.
.
* Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9e590FeeGCM
.
(Harry Dean Stanton disappears into the role of Travis, a forlorn and grizzled loner who emerges from the Texas wastelands after years of despair and penitence for an unnamed misdeed. Emotionally dead and unable to speak, only a phone number in his pocket connects him to a brother in Los Angeles. Travis is like a ghost walking through the rusted junkyards of his past, always on the cusp of vanishing back into the barren terrain from which he came, but as he slowly recovers his strength, he is possessed of a mad dream to put the shattered pieces of his life back together. Nastassja Kinski, in her most important role since Tess, portrays Jane, the unsophisticated Texas girl who escaped a troubled childhood by marrying too young. This fable of alienation and redemption features a spare but evocative score by Ry Cooder and spectacular sprawling vistas by the influential cinematographer Robby Müller. Restored for its 20th anniversary in 2014, Paris Texas casts a European’s eye for intimacy on the epic horizons of the American West.)

(Harry Dean Stanton disappears into the role of Travis, a forlorn and grizzled loner who emerges from the Texas wastelands after years of despair and penitence for an unnamed misdeed. Emotionally dead and unable to speak, only a phone number in his pocket connects him to a brother in Los Angeles. Travis is like a ghost walking through the rusted junkyards of his past, always on the cusp of vanishing back into the barren terrain from which he came, but as he slowly recovers his strength, he is possessed of a mad dream to put the shattered pieces of his life back together. Nastassja Kinski, in her most important role since Tess, portrays Jane, the unsophisticated Texas girl who escaped a troubled childhood by marrying too young. This fable of alienation and redemption features a spare but evocative score by Ry Cooder and spectacular sprawling vistas by the influential cinematographer Robby Müller. Restored for its 20th anniversary in 2014, Paris Texas casts a European’s eye for intimacy on the epic horizons of the American West.)

It was for "La Môme/La Vie En Rose" in April 2007 at the DGA! I remember it very well because I was there! 🎬🫶🏻💥🥰 Michael Mann was there too in the company of Olivier Dahan & Marion Cotillard! The film was the opening film of the festival! Unforgettable night! I truly miss this amazing festival that used to be called "COL-COA"! 🫶🏻🎬🌠😎

*** #tafffcinema *** WATCH THE TRAILER! *** OPENING IN US THEATRES ON AUGUST 30, BEFORE A DIGITAL RELEASE: THE FALLING STAR, a Comedy written & directed by Dominique Abel, & Fiona Gordon. Starring Fiona Gordon, Dominique Abel, Kaori Ito, Bruno Romy, Philippe Martz, Bruce Ellison, Mélanie Depuiset, Jimmy Assandri.

.
(Fiona Gordon and Dominique Abel (THE FAIRY, LOST IN PARIS) delight audiences with their blend of slapstick and burlesque. Their latest “crime movie” transmutes the codes of film noir through their characteristically colorful palette and clownish plot twists. Abel plays Boris, a former activist hiding from his dark past, keeping in the shadows as a barkeeper, until a one-armed vigilante finally hunts him down. The fortuitous appearance of a double—the depressive recluse Dom (also played by Abel) seems to offer the perfect decoy. But his tenacious and loopy ex-wife, the private eye Fiona (Gordon), could foil their master plan. Abel and Gordon’s memorable dose of hilarity seems perfectly calibrated to the social mood; each deceptively minimalistic set piece brims with a cinematic intelligence that recalls Tati and Keaton. The cast features Philippe Martz and Bruno Romy and the Japanese dancer Kaori Ito, who plays a willful and hilariously unpredictable femme fatale.

The fortuitous appearance of a double—the depressive recluse Dom (also played by Abel) seems to offer the perfect decoy. But his tenacious and loopy ex-wife, the private eye Fiona (Gordon), could foil their master plan. Abel and Gordon’s memorable dose of hilarity seems perfectly calibrated to the social mood; each deceptively minimalistic set piece brims with a cinematic intelligence that recalls Tati and Keaton. The cast features Philippe Martz and Bruno Romy and the Japanese dancer Kaori Ito, who plays a willful and hilariously unpredictable femme fatale.
