Lafitte and Kiberlain to star in upcoming film

Filming has begun on a dramatic comedy that brings together Laurent Lafitte as a famous singer and Sandrine Kiberlain as his biggest fan, of whom he plans to make an impossible request. Shooting will continue until December 16, 2013 in Paris, in the surrounding region and at the Swiss-French border. The film is due for release in the second half of 2014. Elle l’aime, elle l’adore, a coproduction of Productions du Trésor and Chi-Fou-Mi Productions, will be coproduced by Egérie Productions, StudioCanal and TF1 Films Production, with support from Indéfilms and Cofinova and the participation of Canal+, Ciné+ and TF1. Studiocanal, the film’s co-producer, holds all distribution rights for the film.

Gréco sings Brel

It was written in the stars that Juliette Gréco would one day record an album of Jacques Brel’s songs, but she knew and loved his music too much for this recording to take place either casually or impulsively. Instead, it is at once a work of loyalty, out of friendship for the songwriter, whom she knew, and a true tour de force as a performance. On this album, released by Deutsche Grammophon, we find hits that Gréco has performed onstage (“J’arrive,” “Ne Me Quitte Pas,” “Ces gens là,” “Bruxelles” and others), with an updated sound thanks to Bruno Fontaine’s fresh arrangements, as well as the heart-rending final track, “Chanson des Vieux Amants.” This album is a rare, emotion-filled pearl, a musical gem representing a waking dream for Brel fans and indeed for everyone.
