As we await his next feature-length film, set to star Adam Driver and Lea Seydoux, and shooting this fall, Leos Carax premiered his 40-minute self-portrait “C’est Pas Moi” at Cannes. A June 12 release is settled in France, with U.S. distribution yet to be announced.
The film, met with a lot of praise at its Debussy screening, now has a trailer. Many recurrent Carax characters show up in this one — it’s said to be a “chaotic and fascinating patchwork” of a film. Sadly, there was only one screening on the Croisette, which quickly sold out, and I wasn’t able to see it. Maybe I’ll request a screener.
Carax tends to take years between making films. His filmography is literally composed of just six films: 1984’s “Boy Meets Girl,” 1986’s “Mauvais Sang,” 1991’s “Lovers on the Bridge,” 1999’s “Pola X,” 2012’s “Holy Motors,” and 2021’s “Annette.”
Edward Berger seems to have settled on what comes next. His Lance Armstrong biopic, starring Austin Butler, is now holding casting calls, with production eyed for January.
