Trailer and Poster: My Best Friend
French filmmaker Patrice Leconte has had the fortune of having a good chunk of his films get theatrical distribution on this side of the Atlantic and this summer is no different.
Starring Daniel Auteuil, this tells the story of François, a middle-aged antique dealer. He has a stylish apartment and a fabulous life, but at a dinner with a group he considers his dearest acquaintances, he is blindsided by the revelation that none of them actually likes him. He’s arrogant, self-centered and harsh, and they don’t believe he knows the meaning of friendship. His business partner Catherine makes him a bet: if he can produce his best friend, she will let him keep the massive Greek vase he acquired that afternoon on the company tab. If not, it’s hers….
IFC Films releases the film on July 13th, and Universal Pictures apparently thinks that there is some value to the film as Brian Grazer will produce the remake. Here’s a look at the poster one sheet (you can click it and get straight to the trailer) or scroll below and find what suits you best.
