I am a fan of Romain Duris

When you really take a closer look at them, many praised actors become famous over night and then keep to a certain type of role: the heartthrob, the baddy, the action man, the comedian...

Romain's range of acting is so rich that I am always exited whenever I see his name appear on a film's credits: I never know if he will be the hunk (think of The Spanish Hotel), or the tortured soul of Gadjo Dilo, (one of my top 10 films, thanks Ed for introducing me to this gem), of course that is not all....very few actors achieve that...

So, for me here, all the way away in america....I wished to spend some time with Romain:)

In the States, we are often at the mercy of the hype ...the buzz...the sensational marketing surrounding the "launch" of THE "new stars" who haven't got the time to build themselves...one night wonders.

I can't wait for Persecution with Romain Duris and Jean-Luc Anglade, two of my favourites,... what a treat!
