Les Bien-aimés by Christophe Honoré Out of Compétition at the Closing Ceremony of the 64th Festival de Cannes

Christophe Honoré’s film, Les Bien-aimés, will be screened at the Closing Night of the 64th Cannes Film Festival, on Sunday May 22, 2011, after the ceremony in which Robert De Niro and his jury will attribute the awards.
 
First time in Competition in Cannes with Les chansons d’amour, Christophe Honore returns in 2011 on the red carpet of the Palais des Festivals, accompanied by his faithful musician Alex Beaupin and the film’s actors: Catherine Deneuve, Ludivine Sagnier, Chiara Mastroiani, Milos Forman, Louis Garrel, Michel Delpech and Paul Schneider.
They embody characters that draw us into Prague of the sixties, London of the ’80s, the world of Sept. 11 and Paris of today in a singular, melancholy and romantic work of art.
 
With this movie, by one of the world’s most talented and original young filmmakers of his generation, who wrote the screenplay and dialogue of the film, the Cannes Film Festival closes its 64th edition with a bang.
