After a very disappointing first teaser, Love Phew carried by Adèle Exarchopoulos and François Civil is revealed in an impressive trailer.
Who will stop Hugo Sélignac? The producer is chaining festivals and successes, and does not intend to stop there. While his film Their children after them of the Boukherma brothers and with Gilles Lellouche won the Marcello Mastroianni Prize for Most Promising Newcomer for Paul Kircher, he also presented two films at the last Cannes Film Festival, The Second Act by Quentin Dupieux in the opening and Love Phew directed by Gilles Lellouche, also in competition for the Palme d’Or.
Hugo Sélignac had already produced The Big Bath and so he teamed up again with Gilles Lellouche, this time with even greater resources, to Love phew. While the two friends, after North Bacare working on the filming of Cédric Jimenez’s new film Chien 51, a trailer of Love Phew has been unveiled and frankly, it makes you want it.
A crazy trailer
If the teaser of Love phew showed very little, the new trailer clearly reveals the stakes of this tragic romance mixed with action, notably with the voice of Adèle Exarchopoulos and the dramatic music. We feel here better the scale of this fresco, the images taking full possession of the screen. This trailer also gives a better taste of the genre mix. and the gangster movie aspect is clearly accentuated. This is particularly the case thanks to the mafioso character played by Benoît Poelvoorde.
Rightly so, the trailer capitalizes above all on the star cast, probably in the hope of attracting viewers. Thus, the main duo Adèle Exarchopoulos and François Civil are in almost every shot, as are their young versions with Mallory Wanecque and the lesser-known Malik Frikah. We also see Raphaël Quenard, Alain Chabat, Vincent Lacoste, Elodie Bouchez and Jean-Pascal Zadi.
As a reminder, the film will tell the story of Jackie and Clotaire, two teenagers who grow up between the benches of high school and the docks of the port. She studies, he hangs around. And then their destinies cross and it’s mad love. At least, until life separates them… forever? To really experience this very ambitious French fresco, you won’t have to wait too long. Love phew will be released in theaters in France on October 16.
