Rust & Bone

French writer and director Jacques Audiard delivers another terrific film with this gritty drama. A single father down on his luck bonds with a whale trainer after she suffers a life changing accident. Audiard brings another original film with compelling and fully developed characters. Marion Cotillard and Matthias Schoenaerts deliver stellar performances as the leads which is the heart and soul of the film. While Cotillard proves again her worth as a great actress, Schoenaerts continues to impress and pave the way for greater stardom. 1001 Films' coverage of the 65th Festival de Cannes.
