Robert Pattinson wants to avoid death
All eyes are aimed at the Luxfilm Festival these days: The festival brings some stars to the Grand Duchy, including Tim Roth and Trine Dyrholm, the leading actors of the « Poison » long-feature film government by Désirée Nosbusch. Anyone who hopes to finally see the film and could not get a ticket for the premiere has to be disappointed: the drama officially only starts on the local screens in two weeks.
All the better, Robert Pattinson would think if he found out that « Mickey 17 » the only blockbuster is now going into the race in this country. The 38-year-old, who, as a vampire Edward in the « Twilight » film series, not only twisted Kristen Stewart alias Bella, but also millions of teenagers, is the main actor of the new SCI-Fi comedy.
In the work of director Bong Joon-Ho (« Parasite »), Pattinson slips into the role of a man named Mickey Barnes, who helps with the colonization of the Ice Planet Nilfheim and takes over particularly dangerous jobs. Extremely practical: if something goes wrong, so it bites into the grass, you can simply replace it with a clone. Actually a good concept, if it weren't for Mickey 17, the 17th clone who doesn't want to let his life.
If you prefer it earthly, you can look forward to the second restart of the week: « Le Secret de Khéops ». In the directorial debut of actress Barbara Schulz (« La Dilettante »), archaeologist Christian Robinson (Fabrice Luchini) comes across an inscription that puts him on the trail of Pharao Cheops' treasure. .
The note that Louvre Director Dominique Vivant Denon left more than 200 years ago could lead to one of the most exciting discoveries in archeology in the 21st century. Together with his daughter Isis (Julia Piaton) and grandson Julien (Gavril Dartevelle), he is therefore looking for the search.
Restart number three is « A Bicyclette! » By Mathias Mlekuz, who himself took over the leading role in the autobiographical and documentary tragic comedy: Mathias, the father of a young man who committed suicide, embarks on a journey that his son had already covered – a bike tour from France to Istanbul.
