Magnolia fall victim to ‘The Girl From Monaco’

The films that usually wash up ashore among French filmmaker Anne Fontaine’s filmography usually contain large doses of male fantasy. As we had previously witness with Nathalie…, eye candy is a label that newbie actress Louise Bourgoin wears well in The Girl From Monaco. After a successful run in French theaters, Magnolia Pictures are looking to turn a few heads with a deal that would see the film make it to screens sometime next year. 

A brilliant and neurotic attorney goes to Monaco to defend a seventy-year-old criminal. But, instead of focusing on the case, he falls for a beautiful she-devil who turns him into a complete wreck… Hopefully, his zealous bodyguard will step in and put everything back in order… Or will he ?

Fontaine is now working on Coco avant Chanel – Audrey Tautou will star as Coco Chanel in a biopic about the legendary French fashion designer.
