To get aesthetic and intellectual pleasure
It has been about nine years since Marianne left Abel for his best friend Paul. After Paul's death, Marianne returns to her former lover with her little son. The witty melodrama about a love triangle in French "The Honest Man" became the second directorial work of the famous actor Louis Garrel ("Friends"), who also starred. Together with him, his wife Laetitia Casta and a very young Lily-Rose Depp starred in the film. Today, one of the most famous French actors of our time, Louis Garrel, is celebrating his birthday. This charming brunette first appeared on the screen at 6, at 20 became known around the world for his role in the movie "Dreamers", and at 23 he received the Cesar award in the "Most Promising Actor" nomination. And despite the fact that the names of the films can give the impression, that Louis starred in films for adults - "Prelude", "My Girl Doesn't Want ...", "That Summer of Passion" - in the frame he always looks like a disheveled French Apollo, and all his roles are frank, deep and dramatic. We recall 5 films with his participation that everyone should see.
