In a major event for cinephiles, moviegoers and actors alike, France’s greatest film actress shares with us for the first time her six shooting diaries, kept during a career spanning forty years while on location for films from Luis Bunuel’s Tristana to Lars von Trier’s Dancer in the Dark. Never intended for publication, they reveal a passionate, thoughtful, intimate, and solitary side to her we’ve never before known. Raw and uncut, they express her innermost doubts, fears and concerns as well as her insights and criticisms of herself as an actress. In addition, we read candid yet surprisingly humble passages detailing the excitement and challenges of working with some of cinema’s greatest actors, screenwriters and directors. Finally, we are provided glimpses into her inner circle of family and friends. An exclusive interview with director and screenwriter Pascal Bonitzer, who has worked on numerous films with Deneuve, is also included. Never gossipy, indulgent or condescending, these diaries are a contribution to the history of French Cinema told in Deneuve’s own lovely, weary, and inimitable voice. To sum it up in her own words, “Some remorse, though no regrets”.
