About Jean Rochefort, l'irrésistible
If Jean Rochefort remains so dear to our hearts, it is because this extraordinary actor alone embodies a cinema and a France imbued with freedom and carelessness. Through his films, archives and the testimony of those close to him, we discover a complex man, a sad clown saved by his taste for words and for fun.
Directed by Yves Riou, Jean Rochefort, l'irrésistible leans on a strong ensemble — Jean Rochefort, Guillaume Canet, Jean-Paul Belmondo — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2020.
