Star power ensures event shines even brighter
THE 13th annual French Film Festival begins on Thursday with a screening of Michael Haneke’s Amour, winner of this year’s Palme d’Or at Cannes.
Other films showing on the 12-day programme at the Irish Film Institute in Dublin include Atomic Age, the much-vaunted debut of Héléna Klotz, which won prizes at Cannes and Berlin; veteran Alan Resnais’ You Ain’t Seen Nothin’ Yet; and Farewell, My Queen, the latest from prolific director Benoit Jacquot, about the last days of Marie-Antoinette’s court.
