Park Benches
Bancs publics (Versailles rive droite) (original)
With over 86 speaking parts, Bruno Podalydès has assembled an all-star, ensemble cast including Catherine Deneuve, Mathieu Amalric, and Chiara Mastroianni in this film about the everyday lives of Parisians living in the wealthy suburb of Versailles. Park Benches is a witty, incisive examination of contemporary France and urban alienation that was a huge success on its theatrical release in France. The film is the final entry in Podalydès' "Versailles Trilogy," which also includes A Night in Versailles and Only God Sees Me. Denis Podalydès plays the protagonist in all three films, but each stands on its own and can be seen without being familiar with the others.
Starring Denis Podalydès, Florence Muller, Pierre Arditi, Hippolyte Girardot, Josiane Balasko, Michel Vuillermoz, Didier Bourdon, Chantal Lauby, Chiara Mastroianni, Claude Rich
