Here’s the new trailer for a film that our new recruit Nush Davies is going to see tomorrow night. POTICHE is a new film that stars Catherine Deneuve and Gerard Depardieu and is directed by Francios Ozon.
I don’t know a huge amount about the film, but Nush seemed really excited about the possibility of reviewing it for the site. Here’s the synopsis.
Synopsis: North of France, Sainte-Gudule, 1977. Suzanne (Catherine Deneuve) is the submissive, housebound wife of wealthy industrialist Robert Pujol, who oversees his umbrella factory with an iron fist and is equally tyrannical with his children and ‘trophy housewife’.
When the workers go on strike and take Robert hostage, Suzanne steps in to manage the factory. To everyone’s surprise, she proves herself a competent and assertive woman of action. But when Robert returns from a restful cruise in top form, things get complicated…
Check out the trailer below, and come back to THN for a full review nearer the release date, which is set for 17th June in the Uk.
