A trio of actors in Isabelle Carre (Anna M.), Marina Hands (Lady Chatterley) and James Thierree (Vatel) have scored a top-lining acting gig in Claude Miller‘s next feature which will be filmed on both sides of the Atlantic. The production to be set up for sometime in 2010 is titled Voyez comme ils dansent (Watch While They Dance) and is loosely based on Roy Parvin’s short story “Menno’s Granddaughter”, this follows a woman who travels from Paris to a small town in Canada, where her ex-husband has just died. After falling ill she has to seek help from her ex’s widow, the woman he left her for, and they develop an uneasy friendship.

Variety reports that Patrick Godeau (La fille coupée en deux) will produce. Miller has had some luck stateside having his last two pics La petite Lili (2003) and Un secret (2007) find distribution via First Run and Strand respectively. Any Marina Hands fans looking forward to this project?
