PIERRE RICHARD: THE QUIET ONE BY GRÉGORY MONRO
Who is Pierre Richard? Is he, as is believed by some, the veritable double of
François Perrin, a cult character he invented and for whom he often successfully
donned the costume and assumed the blunders? Can he simply be reduced to
the unlucky hero of La Chèvre (Knock on Wood) or to the Grand Blond (The Tall
Blond Man with One Black Shoe)? Focusing on Pierre Richard the author, the
film draws the portrait of a discrete poet whose complexity, artistic desires and
commitments have disappeared behind the immensity of his success.

One of the most important artists of our era, Ryuichi Sakamoto has had a
prolific career spanning over four decades, from techno-pop stardom to
Oscar-winning film composer. The evolution of his music has coincided with

Japan’s social movement against nuclear power. As Sakamoto returns to music
following cancer, his haunting awareness of life crises leads to a resounding
new masterpiece. RYUICHI SAKAMOTO: CODA is an intimate portrait of both
the artist and the man.

JAMES STEWART / ROBERT MITCHUM:
THE TWO FACES OF AMERICA BY GRÉGORY MONRO
With his gauche manner and his slender figure, Stewart embodies a successful
life. Mitchum, with his legendary nonchalance and his hangdog look, is more
like the naughty kid. When they shared top billing in the 1978 film The Big Sleep,
these two actors, certainly did not suspect that they would both embark upon
eternal sleep on almost the same day in 1997. What heritage have these two
Hollywood legends left behind, and how did their particular qualities feed the
