VINCENT LINDON

BOTH SIDES OF THE BLADE (2022)
Starring Juliette Binoche, Vincent Lindon, Grégoire Colin, Mati Diop, Hana Magimel, Bulle Ogier, Issa Perica, Alice Houri, Bruno Podalydès and Lola Créton. Directed by Claire Denis.

Public radio presenter Sara and Jean are in love, and have been living together for a decade. When they first met, Sara was in a relationship with François while Jean, a pro rugby star, was married with a son. Their relationship has been relatively secure, even surviving a stint in prison by Jean for shady business dealings.

One day, seemingly out of the blue, François returns to Paris and contacts Jean, suggesting he come work for him; he’s starting an agency for sports stars and wants Jean’s expertise in identifying talent. When Sara first sees Francois again - in the distance, across a car park - she’s overcome with emotion. Soon, things rapidly spiral out of control.

ANOTHER WORLD
Starring Vincent Lindon, Sandrine Kiberlain, Anthony Bajon, Marie Drucker, Olivier Lemaire, Guillaume Draux, Christophe Rossignon, Sarah Laurent, Joyce Bibring and Olivier Beaudet. Directed by Stéphane Brizé.

Lindon plays Philippe Lemesle, an executive who oversees the regional factory of an industrial multi-national. He has dedicated his life to the company, balancing relations with his employees while placating his bosses and their American overlords. But it’s come at a high personal cost - he and partner Anne are separating, and his relationship with troubled son Lucas is also foundering. So when the already-frayed Philippe is tasked by management with a downsizing operation, he faces a major crisis of conscience.
