Laurent TUEL at ESRA Thursdays!

February 2016

To date, Laurent TUEL has directed six feature-length films, all very different from one another in terms of genre or filming.

The best known is " Jean-Philippein which Fabrice LUCHINI was confronted with Johnny HALLYDAY. But this is his latest opus, " Le Combat ordinairewhich was shown to the students, a film adapted from a four-volume comic strip.

Many questions focused on the film, and on how to adapt a comic book for the screen. But it was on the filmmaker's career that the evening found its rhythm, on the choice of subjects, on the desire for cinema, on the worry of no longer being able to shoot, and so on. Convivial, even warm-hearted, Laurent TUEL also answered those who wondered about the future of those who aspire to enter his career, thus finding an echo to personal doubts that are nonetheless no match for his irrepressible desire for cinema.
