Apres Lui

French cinema icon Catherine Deneuve gives one of her most unusual and startling performances as a grieving mother in this intimate and sophisticated drama from filmmaker Gaël Morel and cowriter Christophe Honoré (Ma Mère; Dans Paris). After her son is killed in a car accident, a bookshop owner (Deneuve) becomes increasingly fixated on his friend (Thomas Dumerchez), the driver in the fatal incident. It’s a rare chance to see Deneuve shed her chic icy screen persona. At one point she even attends a rock concert wearing jeans, beer in hand.
