Murder She Notes: Efira, Amalric, Lacoste & Luana Bajrami Join Zlotowski’s ‘Vie Privée’

Date:

Last week, we got the confirmation that Jodie Foster and Daniel Auteuil were toplining Rebecca Zlotowski’s Vie Privée and now we have a more complete picture with further casting announcements and a proper logline. Along with new team members in Mathieu Amalric, Vincent Lacoste and Luana Bajrami (who directed her feature debut in the Cannes preemed The Hill Where Lionesses Roar in 2021 – read our review), Zlotowski is re-teaming with her Other People’s Children star Virginie Efira. Production began in late September and will run all the way into late November in Paris and Normandy. We’re putting this down as a Venice Film Festival possibility. Goodfellas are handling sales.

This follows renowned psychiatrist Lilian Steiner (Foster), who mounts her own private investigation into the death of one of her patients, whom she is convinced has been murdered.

Ken Russell’s The Devils – 2010 Fantasia International Film Festival

Iconic director Ken Russell was in town to receive a lifetime achievement award from Fantasia for his 50-plus years in the business, a career that has spawned many genre classics including Altered States, Gothic, and The Lair of the White Worm. But it was the little-seen and hard to find The Devils from 1971 that proved to be Russell's most controversial work, and Fantasia managed to snag a copy to be screened on Russell's big night. In the video, Russell discusses the true story behind the film and receives his award with the grace befitting one of the great filmmakers of all time.
