Fanny Ardant DVD

Paris, je t'aime [Blu-ray]

Fanny Ardant, Juliette Binoche, Steve Buscemi, Willem Dafoe, Marianne Faithfull
Paris is a city of light, lovers, art and beauty, and it's been immortalized in paintings, music and fantasy throughout the centuries.

But you've probably never seen so many facets of this city before. "Paris, Je T'aime" explores all the sides of the city in in eighteen very brief films, all set in various arrondissements of Paris, and directed by some brilliantly underrated directors with widely-ranging casts of stars both great and small. And all of these films seem to be about love -- often it's a person, but each one is also an ode to Paris itself.

Ridicule

Charles Berling, Jean Rochefort, Fanny Ardant, Judith Godrèche, Bernard Giraudeau
I just got done watching a delightful movie by the name of "Ridicule". By categorization, this would come under the category of a "costume drama/comedy" and it's pre-revolution setting was a key element to the movie's impact. However, the fancy sets and costumes were not just an excuse to make a movie; the counts and countess's served to display a world of benign ignorance of the world around them (as only the 16th Century French nobility could).

The movie follows a well-meaning lesser noble who seeks to remedy the unhealthy conditions in his estate.

Callas Forever

Fanny Ardant, Jeremy Irons, Joan Plowright, Jay Rodan, Gabriel Garko

I am going to begin with a disclaimer. While I am an avid opera lover, I am not a Maria Callas fanatic. I'm not a Callas hater either. Those who love and loathe Maria Callas know every intimate detail of her life, both on and off the stage, have memorized her recorded legacy, both the official releases and the pirated recordings, and live, breath and die all things Maria Callas. I admire and appreciate her voice, and will admit there are some roles that Callas could do as no one else could, but I would say I have more of a fondness for her than anything else.
