LES ACTEURS - LE [US]

(Bertrand Blier, 2000, 104 mins)
Release date: 22 September 2026
Limited Edition Blu-ray (UK and US premiere)

An astonishing ensemble cast, which includes such legends as Jean-Paul Belmondo (Stavisky...), Alain Delon (Diabolically Yours), and Maria Schneider (The Passenger), populates Les Acteurs, a surreal comedy from provocative director Bertrand Blier (Femmes fatales). 

A group of legendary French actors, playing exaggerated versions of themselves, discuss the intricacies of their craft and become involved in a series of bizarre adventures when the distinction between real life and artistic representation gets increasingly blurred.

Filled with allusions to many classics of French cinema, Les Acteurs is a playful, reflexive delight for lovers of cinema history and film craft.
