The American Film Festival begins this Friday, September 2nd. Despite the defection at the last minute by Michael Moore, many stars are expected on the red carpet where the hero of the saga Harry Potter .
Deauville on the Normandy coast, is preparing to host from 2 September the 42th festival of American cinema, with enhanced safety, starring
in this film, whose release is scheduled for August in the United States, the actor 27 years embodies an FBI agent infiltrated a very delicate environment: that of a neo-Nazi group. The actor’s mission to turn the plans of these violent fanatics to avoid laying a bomb. But the task seems much more perilous than planned for the young officer.
With this new role, Daniel Radcliffe still cut a little bit the cord with its image of sorcerer’s apprentice, who pursues him for years after the saga Harry Potter (2001- 2011). However, the actor has since held other roles in films such as The Woman in Black (2012), Horns (2013), or Elusive 2 (2016) .
enhanced security
given the terrorist threat in France, the festival is the subject of a security enhanced this year. The building which hosts the main events was isolated by large concrete blocks, preventing traffic in its surroundings. Spectators attending the films will be systematically excavated.
Showcase of the 7th American art in all its facets, but increasingly turned to auteur cinema, the festival in this seaside town west of France will be held until Sunday, September 11 and present to the public 37 films, including 14 in competition. He had registered 66,000 entries last year.
Michael Moore, conspicuously absent festival
This should be the case on Sunday night for Michael Moore, but a “family problem” the forced to cancel his trip, obviously eagerly awaited. “We are sad to announce that Michael Moore had to cancel his visit to France. A family emergency occurred, and Michael could not leave her family in the event that it passes through, “said the Dark Star in a statement.
Like many other stars of American cinema, his name will still put on a Deauville beach cabin, facing the sea. Michael Moore won the Palme d’Or at Cannes International Film Festival (south of France) in 2004 for his film Fahrenheit 911 , an indictment vitriolic against the foreign policy of the US president at the time, George W. Bush.
However, a preview screening of his new film Where to Invade Next? , the retrospective of his work and the homage it should be made by Luc Jacquet (Academy Award for best documentary Feature in 2006 the march of the Emperor ) are maintained, said the press service of the festival.
