EDITORIAL 
The Deauville American Film Festival continues to explore the life of heroes in
American society – those who inspire us, or those with whom we identify. The
movies in competition, the premieres and the documentaries portray heroes
who often seem weary and demotivated, yet who are still curious to
understand what they are going through, and in the course of their trials, seek
to confront themselves. That is the narrative theme of a great many of the
fiction films in this year’s line-up. In search of identity, the characters in
BEHIND THE CANDELABRA, BLUE JASMINE, WHITE HOUSE DOWN, RUSH or JOE
all bear out this idea.
The competition is also shot through with a quest for reference points, probing
the roots of rural America to find meaning in existence, and demonstrating that
having one’s feet in the soil can be as good as therapy.
The theme of heroes revealed in the selection could have been the inspiration
behind the choice of Vincent Lindon as president of the jury, a genuine herald
of this competition. But that wasn’t the case. It was, in fact, the result of a
shared wish on the part of the Festival’s organizers to have him as president for
the past three years, and Vincent’s desire to share with us his ardent passion
for American cinema. It is the first time that an actor has headed the jury, and
similarly, the first time an actress – Valérie Donzelli – will preside over the
Cartier Révélation jury.
We continue to take an interest in the wider world of the moving image,
through the documentary section and Deauville Season 4, the former affirming
the longevity of the genre and its high standards, the latter affirming the future
of original writing and the influence it can have on cinema.
The Festival is always keen to encourage debate through meaningful dialog and
fruitful exchanges, and this will be on offer in abundance through the Film
Corner, the masterclasses, the literary award, the Prix Michel d’Ornano, the
Nuits Américaines, and much more. As we like to say, cinema is always better
when we talk about it.
The many contemporary films on show should not let us forget the history of
this art and those who forged it. We will pay tribute to them in the shape of a
producer without whom the movies would not be what they are today, two
actors and an actress who have all played modern-day heroes, and for the first
time this year, Deauville Legend will provide the occasion to honor a
personality who has visited Deauville, or who has made an outstanding
contribution to cinema before they passed into celluloid legend.

his thirty-nine-foot yacht taking on water after a collision with a shipping

Despite his success in patching the breached hull, his mariner’s intuition and a

TRIBUTE 
DEAUVILLE LEGEND
The continued desire to affirm the historical importance of American
cinematographic heritage has prompted Deauville to pay tribute each year to
a movie legend having left their stamp on cinema, and who honored us with
their presence.
Danny Kaye
Actor
©DR
Danny Kaye was born David Daniel Kaminsky on January 18, 1913 in Brooklyn,
New York. (His actual year of birth was 1911, but the birthday he celebrated
was 1913). The son of an immigrant Russian tailor, his parents spoke Yiddish
and Russian at home and he started “entertaining” when he was about five,
singing and dancing at three-day Jewish weddings. He was a high school
dropout who specialized in pole vaulting and playing hookey.
His official debut in show business began as a “tummeler” at summer resorts in
the Catskill Mountains. “Tummeling” meant clowning around anywhere, at all
hours, for the entertainment of the guests. Further afield, he toured the Far
East in 1934 and since most audiences didn’t speak English, he developed the
signature “Danny Kaye” style of artful communication, a pantomime of body
language and gymnastic face that could express every emotion.
1939 was a year that would change his life. At an audition in a Broadway loft,
he met Sylvia Fine. They eloped in 1940. She was an integral and intimate part
of Danny Kaye’s stardom. A gifted pianist, lyricist and composer, she wrote
67
most of his material for nightclubs, stage and film, and worked throughout his
career, often behind the scenes, as editor and producer. Her credits include
two Oscar nominations for best song and in 1979, she won a Peabody for the
first of three specials she produced, created, wrote, and hosted on PBS,
Musical Comedy Tonight.
As president of the Danny Kaye and Sylvia Fine Kaye Foundation, their
daughter, Dena, is dedicated to continuing her father’s legacy of helping
people around the world.
Danny Kaye first caught the world’s attention in 1941 with a small role in Moss
Hart’s Broadway show, Lady in the Dark. From this platform, Kaye jumped to
star status in his next Broadway appearance, Cole Porter’s Let’s Face It. In 1943,
he made a longer jump to Hollywood, under contract to Samuel Goldwyn. In his
first starring role, he appeared the year after in Elliott Nugent’s UP IN ARMS,
opposite Dinah Shore.
Danny Kaye became an international star with his SRO performances at The
London Palladium.
The early 50s was a fertile time for Danny Kaye, with such definitive films as
Walter Lang’s ON THE RIVIERA (1951), Charles Vidor’s HANS CHRISTIAN
ANDERSEN (1952), Melvin Frank & Norman Panama’s KNOCK ON WOOD (1954)
and his sold-out, one-man shows in New York. In 1952 he hosted the 24th
Academy Awards. Kaye made the timeless film, Michael Curtiz’s WHITE
CHRISTMAS, with Bing Crosby in 1954, a year that opened a new chapter in his
life when he became UNICEF’s first Goodwill Ambassador.
In 1955 he received an honorary Oscar, relating to the documentary,
ASSIGNMENT CHILDREN, about his work around the world with UNICEF. In
1956, he was privileged to star in one of legendary Edward R. Murrow’s SEE IT
NOW SPECIALS. THE SECRET LIFE OF DANNY KAYE won a Peabody Award and
focused largely on his role for UNICEF. “Children are the world’s most valuable
natural resource,” Kaye said. “All you have to do is hold out a hand and
embrace a child and you will have a lifelong ally.”
In the late 50s, before joining the world of television, he made two successful
movies: Peter Glenville’s ME AND THE COLONEL (1958) and Melville
Shavelson’s THE FIVE PENNIES (1959).
The Danny Kaye most familiar to audiences made his foray into television
entertainment in 1960 in the first of three An Evening with Danny Kaye
specials. In 1963, Kaye began his own, Emmy-winning weekly variety hour on
CBS.
He returned to Broadway in 1970 as Noah in Two by Two, with music by
Richard Rogers. Though he injured his leg and hip, he still performed every
night—from a wheelchair.
Kaye’s television appearances included Pinocchio, Peter Pan, The Twilight Zone,
The Muppet Show and The Cosby Show. The Emmy-winning special, Look-in at
the Met, from the Metropolitan Opera, explained opera to children.
68
In 1979, Kaye celebrated his 25th anniversary as UNICEF’s first Goodwill
Ambassador, and made The Guinness Book of Records by piloting a private jet
to 65 cities in the U.S. and Canada in 5 days, stopping at each city’s airport to
greet thousands of UNICEF volunteers for Halloween’s Trick or Treat campaign.
When Danny Kaye died on March 3, 1987, not only had he lived the American
Dream, he had lived a bucketful of dreams. He stood for excellence in his
profession, had reached a level of intellectual, artistic and humanitarian
achievement attained by few individuals. The son of immigrant parents,
product of the streets of New York, ambassador of laughter to an entire world
and Pied Piper to its children, Kaye was an authentic giant of his times.
As part of this tribute on September 4th, which his daughter Dena Kaye will
attend, a selection of three films with Danny Kaye will be screened.

Nicolas Cage
Actor & director
© DR
The son of comparative literature professor August Coppola (a brother of
director Francis Ford Coppola) and dancer/choreographer Joy Vogelsang, Cage
changed his name early in his career to make his own reputation, succeeding
brilliantly with a host of classic, quirky roles by the late 1980s.
Cage was raised in Long Beach, California, and lived there until his family
moved to San Francisco when he was 12. Cage began acting at age 15 when he
enrolled in San Francisco's American Conservatory Theater. He later moved to
Los Angeles and while still a high school student, landed a role in the television
film The Best of Times. He made his feature film debut in FAST TIMES AT
RIDGEMONT HIGH in 1982 and truly broke through in RUMBLE FISH (1984) by
his uncle Francis Coppola with whom he teamed back in 1984 for THE COTTON
CLUB. The same year, his portrayal of a tormented Vietnam vet in BIRDY first
established him as a serious actor. Directed by Alan Parker, BIRDY won the Jury
Prize at the Cannes Film Festival. From then on, Cage started multiplying roles.
He played in PEGGY SUE GOT MARRIED (1986), his third film under the
direction of Coppola, RAISING ARIZONA (1987) by Joel Coen, MOONSTRUCK
(1987) by Norman Jewison, for which he received a Golden Globe nomination
for Best Actor, VAMPIRE’S KISS (1988) by Robert Bieman and David Lynch's
WILD AT HEART, in which Cage starred opposite Laura Dern, and which won the
Palme d'Or at the 1990 Cannes Film Festival. His memorable performance as an
alcoholic drinking himself to death in Mike Figgis' acclaimed drama LEAVING
LAS VEGAS earned Cage an Academy Award, a Golden Globe Award and Best
75
Actor awards from the New York Film Critics Circle, the Los Angeles Film Critics
Association, the Chicago Film Critics and the National Board of Review.
During the 90’s, and among the biggest hits of his filmography, Cage was the
lead role in countless successful action-packed films: THE ROCK (1996) by
Michael Bay, CON AIR (1997) by Simon West, respectively first and second of
the seven films with producer jerry Bruckheimer, FACE/OFF (1997) by John
Woo, opposite John Travolta, SNAKE EYES (1998) by Brian De Palma, BRINGING
OUT THE DEAD (1999) by Martin Scorsese, and GONE IN SIXTY SECONDS (2000)
by Dominic Sena.
In 2002, Cage further solidified his leading man status when he received
Academy Award, Golden Globe, Screen Actors Guild and British Academy of
Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) nominations for his dual role as twin brothers
Charlie and Donald Kaufman in Spike Jonze's quirky comedy, ADAPTATION.. The
same year, he made his feature film directorial debut with SONNY, world
premiere at the Deauville Film Festival, and his production company, Saturn
Films, produced the drama THE LIFE OF DAVID GALE by Alan Parker.
In the 2000’s, Cage kept on portraying eclectic characters: fearless adventurer
in NATIONAL TREASURE (2004) by Jon Turteltaub, and the sequel National
Treasure: BOOK OF SECRETS (2007), merchant of death in LORD OF WAR by
Andrew Niccol, witness of history and miracle survivor in WORLD TRADE
CENTER (2006) by Oliver Stone or stunter-rider from Hell in GHOST RIDER
(2007), policeman looking for redemption in Werner Herzog’s THE BAD
LIEUTENANT : PORT OF CALL – NEW ORLEANS (2009) or father-figure superhero
in KICK-ASS by Matthew Vaughn.
The tribute to Nicolas Cage, in his presence, will be held on Monday,
September 2, followed by the premiere of JOE by David Gordon Green, who
will introduce the film on stage. The Festival will also present a premiere of
SUSPECT by Scott Walker, with Nicolas Cage.

Larry Clark
Director, screenwriter and photographer
© Sébastien Bossi
Born in 1943 in Tulsa (Oklahoma, USA), Larry Clark learned the art of
photography at an early age. He started out assisting his mother, herself a
photographer, specializing in photos of infants. With a keen interest in
underground movements and the blossoming subculture of the 1960s, he
began to photograph suburban America and its disaffected, drug-taking youth
in his home town. He came to critical attention in 1971 with the photo
documentary book Tulsa, composed of self-portraits and photos of his friends
living on the fringes of society.
His subsequent books – Teenage Lust, centered on a Porto Rican hustler in New
York, and The Perfect Childhood featuring photos of naked teenagers and press
cuttings about youths guilty of killings – both feature an unflinching, almostanthropological vision of his contemporaries and youth in particular.
His work has been exhibited in museums around the world, including MOMA,
the Whitney, and the Guggenheim in New York, as well as the Museum of
Contemporary Art in Los Angeles and the Museum of Modern Art in Paris,
which dedicated a major retrospective to him in 2010.
Martin Scorsese and Gus Van Sant acknowledged the influence of Larry Clark’s
work on their respective films TAXI DRIVER and DRUGSTORE COWBOY, and it
was their encouragement which led him to direct his first movie, KIDS, in 1995.
79
Based on a script from Harmony Korine (GUMMO, SPRING BREAKERS), the film
painted an uncompromising portrait of a group of New York teens, involving
sex and substance abuse in the era of HIV. The film caused controversy at the
Sundance Festival, where it premiered.
He followed up with ANOTHER DAY IN PARADISE (1998) – a road movie starring
James Woods, Melanie Griffith and the young Vincent Kartheiser – then BULLY
(2001), inspired by a true story, and which again explored the world of
teenagers and the visceral link with violence.
In parallel, Larry Clark made the TV-movie Teenage Caveman in 2001, an HBO
commission, and published Punk Picasso, a sort of autobiographical scrapbook
tracing his turbulent past.
KEN PARK (2002), again directed from a script by Harmony Korine, was
censored in Australia, the UK, France and the United States, where the film is
still banned and unreleased today.
With WASSUP ROCKERS (2005), he adopted an almost documentary style to
follow the tribulations of a group of skaters upsetting the palm-lined streets of
Beverly Hills.
In 2012, Larry Clark decided to distribute his latest film, MARFA GIRL, via his
own website: www.larryclark.com. The movie won the Best Film Award at the
Rome International Festival.
During summer 2013, he began shooting THE SMELL OF US in Paris, his first film
in French.

Gale Anne HURD
Producer
© DR
Gale Anne Hurd is one of the entertainment industry's most esteemed
producers of Academy Award-winning films and Emmy Award-winning
programs that shatter box office and ratings records. By continually selecting
daring material, championing technological innovations, and remaining handson in her approach, Hurd has carved out a leading position in the previously
male-dominated world of the blockbuster, and become a recognized creator of
iconic cultural touchstones.
After a successful rise from Roger Corman's executive assistant to head of
marketing at New World Pictures, Hurd's production career launched when she
produced and co-wrote James Cameron’s THE TERMINATOR (1984). This
success was quickly followed by James Cameron’s ALIENS (1986), which
received seven nominations and two Academy Awards, and the Academy
Award-winning films James Cameron’s THE ABYSS (1989), TERMINATOR 2:
JUDGMENT DAY (1991) and Stephen Hopkins’ THE GHOST AND THE DARKNESS
(1996). Additional feature credits include the Academy Award nominated
Michael Bay’s ARMAGEDDON (1998), Louis Leterrier’s THE INCREDIBLE HULK
(2008), Karyn Kusama’s ÆON FLUX (2005), Jonathan Hensleigh’s THE PUNISHER
(2004), Andrew Fleming’s DICK (1999), and Neal Jimenez and Michael
Steinberg’s THE WATERDANCE (1992), which won the Independent Spirit
Award for Best First Feature, and the Audience and Screenplay Awards at the
Sundance Film Festival.
81
When Hurd decided to enter into the world of television, she did so with a
bang. Hurd’s record-breaking AMC series, The Walking Dead, currently reigns
as the most-watched scripted drama since 2010, beating all broadcast and
cable series, and is the number one television series among Adults 18-49. With
over 12 million viewers, the show will return for a fourth season and has been
honored by the American Film Institute in both 2010 and 2012 as a “Top 10” TV
program. With the success of The Walking Dead, Hurd now acts as a Consulting
Producer on AMC’s spinoff talk show, Talking Dead (2013).
Hurd also serves as an officer of the Producers Guild of America (PGA) and a
Governor on the Board of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
Hurd's company, Valhalla Entertainment, has an overall deal with Universal
Cable Productions to develop new television and digital series.
Her indie film, Naomi Foner’s VERY GOOD GIRLS (2013), premiered at this
year’s Sundance Film Festival and is selected at the Deauville American Film
Festival.

John Travolta
Actor
© Rav Holly
John Travolta earned his first Oscar and Golden Globe nominations in 1978 for
his role in the blockbuster SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER directed by John Badham,
which launched the disco phenomenon in the 1970s. He went on to star in the
big-screen version of the long-running musical GREASE by Randal Kleiser (1978)
and the wildly successful URBAN COWBOY by James Bridges (1980) which also
influenced trends in popular culture. Additional film credits include the Brian
De Palma thrillers CARRIE (1976) and BLOW OUT (1981) as well as Amy
Heckerling’s hit comedy LOOK WHO’S TALKING (1989) and Nora Ephron’s comic
hit MICHAEL (1996). Travolta starred in John Turteltaub’s PHENOMENON
(1996) and took an equally distinctive turn as an action star in John Woo’s topgrossing BROKEN ARROW (1996) opposite Christian Slater, and classic
FACE/OFF (1997) opposite Nicolas Cage. He also starred in Simon West’s THE
GENERAL’S DAUGHTER (1999), co-starring Madeline Stowe. In 2005, Travolta
reprised the role of ultra-cool Chili Palmer in Barry Sonnenfeld’s GET SHORTY
(1995) in the sequel BE COOL by F. Gary Gray (2005). In addition, he starred
opposite Scarlett Johansson in the independent feature film A LOVE SONG FOR
BOBBY LONG by Shainee Gabel (2004), which was screened at the Venice Film
Festival, where both Travolta and the films won rave reviews. In February 2011,
he was honored by Europe’s leading weekly program magazine Hörzu, with the
prestigious Golden Camera Award for “International Best Actor” in Berlin,
Germany.
Travolta earned another Academy Award nomination for his riveting portrayal
of a philosophical hit-man in Quentin Tarantino’s PULP FICTION (1994). He also
received BAFTA and Golden Globe nominations for this highly acclaimed role
84
and was named Best Actor by the Los Angeles Film Critics Association, among
other distinguished awards.
He garnered further praise as a Mafioso-turned-movie producer in the comedy
sensation GET SHORTY (1995), winning the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor
in a Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy. In 1998, Travolta was honored by the
BAFTAs with the Britannia Award: and in that same year he received the
Lifetime Achievement Award at the Chicago Film Festival. He also won the
prestigious Alan J. Pakula Award from the US Broadcast Critics Association for
his performance in A CIVIL ACTION (1998), based on the best-selling book and
directed by Steve Zaillian. He was nominated again for a Golden Globe for his
performance in PRIMARY COLORS (1998), directed by Mike Nichols and costarring Emma Thompson and Billy Bob Thornton, and in 2008, he received his
fourth Golden Globe nomination for his role as Edna Turnblad in the big-screen,
Adam Shankman’s box-office hit HAIRSPRAY. As a result of this performance,
the Chicago Film Critics and the Santa Barbara Film Festival decided to
recognize Travolta with a Lifetime Achievement Award for his role.
Travolta was most recently seen in Tony Scott’s THE TAKING OF PELHAM 123
(2009), Pierre Morel’s FROM PARIS WITH LOVE (2010) and in the Oliver Stonedirected movie, SAVAGES, based on Don Winslow’s best-selling crime novel and
presented at the 2012 Deauville American Film Festival.
By honoring John Travolta on Friday, September 6, the Deauville American
Film Festival is bringing the spotlight on the aristocracy of talent, carried into
the firmament. This star is a legend who has played some mythical movie
roles. While some movies owe their success to their director, what would
SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER, BLOW OUT, HAIRSPRAY, FACE/OFF or PULP FICTION
have been without John Travolta?

CARTE BLANCHE 
Since 2011, the Festival has given Carte Blanche to figures from the world of
arts and letters to share their movie preferences - their personal America through a selection of films of their choice.
After the first two editions presented by fashion designers, the Festival is this
year delighted to offer Carte Blanche to the French electronic music duo
© Kim Chapiron
“In music as in cinema, the Americans have a science of entertainment which
we really love, both for its substance and its style. We leapt at the chance to
program this Carte Blanche to share our unabashed passion for the kind of
cinema we grew up with, choosing examples of this entertainment form which
forged our imaginations as children, then as teenagers in the 1980/90s.”
Gaspard Augé & Xavier de Rosnay
87
Ten years ago, the strident beats of “We Are Your Friends” put the spotlight on
Justice, a young French duo signed to the label that Pedro Winter had just
launched, Ed Banger. The album which followed, “✝”, condensed staccato
electro with disco flourishes and the energy of heavy metal. Singles like
“D.A.N.C.E”, “Stress” and “Phantom” and their accompanying videos allowed
Justice to take over the mantle of the French Touch in electro music of the
1990s with its filtered disco loops.
From 2007, following their first album, Justice went on the live circuit with an
arena tour taking in a series of festivals and concert venues around the planet.
This initial encounter with a live audience was the opportunity for the group to
develop a stage show that became more grandiose with every date. The wall of
old Marshall amps placed at the front of the stage, the huge cross, the
lightshow, and the Justice sound which was totally overhauled for live
performance.
In 2012, the tour which followed the release of their second album, “Audio,
Video, Disco”, took them from Australia to the Unites States, Europe, Asia and
South America. The duo are equally at home on the main stage of major rock
festivals (Coachella, Lollapalooza, Les Eurockéennes, Les Vieilles Charrues, etc.)
and electro gatherings (Ultra, Sonar, Melt, etc.), staging around 100 concerts
which has allowed them to hone their performance. As soon as the first notes
of “Genesis” are heard, the crowd is off on a sonic rollercoaster for an hourand-a-half of the duo’s tracks pumped up into megamixes and accompanied by
a frenetic lightshow.
With the album “Access All Arenas”, recorded during their concert in the
Roman amphitheater in Nîmes in July 2012, Justice provides a taste of a tour
which stretched over almost a year, and uses it to revisit the best of 10 years of
existence and three albums (“✝”, “A Cross The Universe” and “Audio, Video,
Disco”), conveying all the effervescence and energy of their live shows.
Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay will attend Deauville on September 4th
to present 3 films as part of their Carte Blanche selection.

DEAUVILLE SEASON 4 
DEAUVILLE SEASON 4 will once again feature TV series and their creators
during the festival’s closing weekend. The line-up includes many PREMIERES,
EXCLUSIVE SERIES and MEETINGS on the theme of writing. The programming
of Deauville Season 4 sets out to confront, analyze and explore the various links
between
European

 MASTERCLASS VINCE GILLIGAN
creator of BREAKING BAD
© Frank Ockenfels 3/AMC
After inviting renowned screenwriters such as David Chase (creator of The
Sopranos), Clyde Phillips (showrunner* for the first four seasons of Dexter),
Tom Fontana (creator of Oz and Borgias) and Shawn Ryan (The Shield), the
Deauville American Film Festival and Deauville Season 4 are this year
delighted to be hosting an exceptional masterclass from American director,
producer and screenwriter Vince Gilligan.
Born in 1967 in Richmond (Virginia, USA) and raised in Farmville and
Chesterfield, Vince Gilligan is a graduate of the esteemed Tisch School of the
Arts at the University of New York. During his studies, he wrote Home Fries, for
which he received the prestigious Virginia Governor’s Screenwriting Award in
1989 and which would be made a decade later by Dean Parisot, starring Drew
89
Barrymore and Luke Wilson. During the same period, he wrote Wilder Napalm,
made in 1993 by Glenn Gordon Caron. This story of two pyromaniac brothers
attracted the attention of screenwriter Chris Carter, who invited Vince Gilligan
to join the group of screenwriters working on the cult series The X-Files. The
Soft Light episode (season two, episode 23) marked the start of a fruitful
collaboration that would lead him to producing and/or writing 143 episodes of
the series.
The X-Files entered the annals of US TV series, with spectacular ratings,
growing from an average of 14 to 20 million viewers per episode, and garnering
record audience figures for certain episodes, including season four, episode 12
which was watched by 29.9 million viewers in the US. From 1993 to 2002, nine
seasons of the series screened, with 202 43-minute episodes. It won five
Golden Globes including Best Drama Series in 1995, 1997 and 1998; 16 Emmy
Awards; and almost 50 other international awards.
Gilligan went on to drive the X-Files spin-off, The Lone Gunmen, which, despite
the quality of the show, was cancelled after one season in 2001.
While demand for his writing skills was limited, Gilligan spent his time devising
humorous ways of making a living, including working as a mobile drug dealer,
traveling across the USA in an RV. This provided the inspiration for Breaking
Bad and the preliminary sketches for the character of Walter White.
Given the cautious approach of the TV networks, Gilligan was contacted by
AMC, an American cable channel newly involved in the content creation
process following in the bold footsteps of HBO and Showtime. Breaking Bad,
Mad Men and The Walking Dead all enjoyed very successful debuts on the
channel.
The black humor of Breaking Bad, its off-beat tone and violent writing have
been met with growing international audience and critical acclaim. The series
has won four Golden Globes, seven Emmy Awards and many other honors,
including the Writers’ Guild Award for Best Series in 2008, 2012 and 2013. With
this series, Vince Gilligan has confirmed his unique writing talent and found his
place among the most powerful and influential showrunners of the moment.
The masterclass will be moderated by Olivier Joyard from the French weekly
newspaper Les Inrockuptibles on Saturday September 7th

 PREMIERE: THE CURSE OF EDGAR
From 1960 to 1963, the presidency of John F. Kennedy embodied everything
that the long-standing head of the FBI detested. J. Edgar Hoover saw his
traditionalist, Protestant and conservative vision threatened by the Kennedy
clan’s version of a free, Catholic, colorful America.
Clyde Tolson, Hoover’s right-hand man and lover, was the last survivor of this
bitter power-struggle in the highest offices. Over 90 minutes, between fiction
and archive footage, this insider witness reveals all about Hoover and his
political strategy, and manages to penetrate as never before the enigmatic
personality of Edgar, a man consumed by his demons at the most critical
moment in his extraordinary career.

 CONFERENCE:
THE FATAL CHARM OF THE SERIAL KILLER
Friday, September 6 - 2.30pm
The Festival is pleased to be hosting the Identities and Cultures Research
Group of the University of Le Havre (GRIC) to provide a platform for the
scientific and educational expertise of the academic research world, and
make it accessible to a wider audience.
As DEXTER is coming to a close and HANNIBAL is just starting, we will explore
these stories and characters that cast such fascination despite their horror.
Like Joe Carroll in THE FOLLOWING, serial killers have their own disciples.
They are part of a narrative heritage, and are each adapted to a storyline that
they attempt to control and fashion. What are the narrative and reflective
mechanisms of these stories with their plot twists? What is their cultural
significance?
The Festival is delighted to welcome the following academics:
SYLVAINE BATAILLE (Lecturer, University of Rouen) is the author of several
articles about series (BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, ROME, SONS OF ANARCHY), and
co-wrote the second issue of the review TV/Series.

Télé pour les Nuls (First, 2009); Sériescopie: Guide Thématique des Séries
Télévisées (Ellipses, 2011, with P. Sérisier and J. Bassaget); Cold Case: la
Mélodie du Passé (PUF, 2013); and also writes columns for Phosphore and
Today in English.
SARAH HATCHUEL (Professor, University of Le Havre) is head of the Identities
and Cultures Research Group. She is the author of Lost: Fiction Vitale (PUF,
2013) and with Monica Michlin is co-writing a book on dreams in TV series

 THE ROUND TABLE
FROM PAGE TO SCREEN, THE GENRE IN
QUESTION
Saturday, September 7 – 10: 30am
Building on the success of the three previous editions, Deauville Season 4 this
year continues its exploration of screenwriting mechanisms through a round
table which will compare the working methods of writers for the small and
big screens.
This year, authors, screenwriters of feature films and writers for TV series will
examine the crossovers between their different styles of writing: from page
to screen, from big to small screen, from documentary to fiction, from one
genre to another.
Their different points of view, esthetics and intentions promise a rich dialog.
Moderated by STÉPHANE FOENKINOS, this discussion will bring together:
MARC DUGAIN
French novelist born in Senegal, he drew inspiration from his childhood,
especially his maternal grandfather who fought in WW1, to write his first novel
published in 1998, The Officers’ Ward. The novel was a bestseller and was
adapted as a movie in 2001 by the director François Dupeyron. With AN
ORDINARY EXECUTION, he adapted his own work for the cinema in 2009, based
on the first part of his eponymous novel. He also directed an adaptation of part
of his novel The Curse of Edgar in the form of a documented fiction.
FABRICE GOBERT
He began his career as a director for television. Switching between drama
series and documentaries, he worked on the documentary series for Arte,
Lettre à un jeune cinéaste, and directed several episodes of the series Âge
sensible for France 2. After the well-received short film CAMILLE, he directed
his first feature film, LIGHTS OUT, selected for the Cannes sidebar Un Certain
Regard in 2010. The film attracted the attention of Canal + and the production
company Haut et Court, who hired Gobert to direct the supernatural series The
Returned, an unprecedented critical and popular hit.
ÉRIC OVERMYER
American screenwriter, producer, and showrunner, he has also written for the
stage, notably the play On the Verge which has been widely performed in
English-speaking territories. He mainly works in movies and TV, as both
98
producer and screenwriter. He has written episodes of Homicide, created by
David Simon, who also called on him to write for the fourth season of the hit
series The Wire. Their collaboration gave rise to the HBO series Treme, which is
set in post-Hurricane Katrina New Orleans.
FRANK SPOTNITZ
American screenwriter, producer, and showrunner, he is best-known for his
work on series such as The X-Files, or more recently Hunted. He co-wrote 40
episodes of The X-Files for TV, and was the producer and co-writer of two
feature films adapted from the series (The X-Files in 1998 and X-Files: I Want to
Believe in 2008). He is currently writing a series adapted from the
TRANSPORTER hit movie franchise, and is writing and coproducing an
adaptation of Philip K. Dick’s The Man in the High Castle for Ridley Scott.
* STÉPHANE FOENKINOS has worked as casting director on around 60 movies.
His credits as screenwriter include co-writing the series Vénus & Apollon (2009)
for Arte, and Hard 2 (2011) for Canal +. Along with his brother, the novelist
David Foenkinos, he directed the feature film DELICACY adapted from David’s
novel, LA DÉLICATESSE, starring Audrey Tautou and François Damiens.

 INNOVATION vs. CREATIVITY?
The digital revolution affects, impacts upon and transforms all facets of
filmmaking, from a film’s conception, its writing, the scale of its ambition
through to its distribution and consumption by the audience. It has also
prompted every section of the industry to question what it does, and how this
is changing. Two decades after it began, can we today measure the real impact
of this revolution on the movie production process? Does the growth in
distribution platforms indeed open the way for new financing models? And
have technological changes facilitated the emergence of new areas for
creation, capable of meeting the needs of filmmakers, whether producers or
directors?
These questions and others will be tackled by Gale Anne Hurd, Thomas
Anargyros and Marc Missonnier in an effort to get to grips with the new
challenges facing cinematographic production. (Le Film français)

TRIBUTE TO GALE ANNE HURD
The Deauville American Film Festival will pay tribute to the US producer Gale
Anne Hurd, saluting her audacious work throughout a visionary career that
includes seminal hits such as ALIENS, THE WALKING DEAD, THE ABYSS and THE
TERMINATOR.

DEAUVILLE AMERICAN FILM CORNER 
A dedicated space for sellers and buyers to discover and (re)consider the best
of current US movie production.
The Deauville American Film Festival and the CINANDO Video Library are
reteaming for another edition of the DEAUVILLE AMERICAN FILM CORNER,
initiated in 2011 and designed to encourage acquisitions of “made in USA”
movies. Part of the line-up of the 39th edition, as well as certain new films for
which French rights are available and which drew our attention during the
selection process, will be presented in this professional space exclusively
reserved for buyers and sellers.
The Festival is thereby reaffirming its wish to act as place of culture, where
the acquisition of films is part of the artistic economy.
At the end of the Festival, subscribers to the Cinando.com platform can watch
or rewatch all or part of the line-up of the 39th edition, and potentially acquire
one of the films screened. This was the case in previous years for THE
DYNAMITER (Summertime) by Matthew Gordon and UNA NOCHE by Lucy
Mulloy, Grand Jury Prize in 2012, both securing French deals thanks to the
DEAUVILLE AMERICAN FILM CORNER.

 MASTERCLASS
BEASTS OF THE SOUTHERN WILD
Thursday, September 5 - 5:30 pm
The Festival is delighted to program an exceptional masterclass given by
Christopher Vogler, who will provide a filmic analysis of BEASTS OF THE
SOUTHERN WILD by Benh Zeitlin, which won the Grand Prize at Deauville
American Film Festival last year.
The American expert in narrative Christopher Vogler will use his expertise on
the heroic figure to question the codes of this enigmatic, vibrant and moving
film. His reading will attempt to reveal the links between the film and an
astonishing, primitive mythology that is peculiar to American culture.
According to him, “BEASTS OF THE SOUTHERN WILD is a film that brings people
together, provoking strong reactions and defying narrative conventions through
its dreamlike style. Is it a fable, a work of magical neo-realism, a modern myth,
whether reflective or primitive, or a representation of the subconscious?”
Christopher Vogler is a regular advisor to Hollywood studios for major US
productions, and an internationally renowned professor of film. His bestseller
The Writer’s Journey investigates modern storytelling through the prism of the
narrative structures of mythology. His analysis has become a reference in
movie and TV production and his work is included in several academic
programs in cinema and literature. He contributed to the writing of Disney
films like THE LION KING and ALADDIN, worked with David Fincher on FIGHT
CLUB, Terrence Malick on THE THIN RED LINE, and with Darren Aronofsky on
THE WRESTLER and his next film, NOAH.
The ESRA group is the largest private training organization in France in the field of cinema and television. Since
it was founded in 1972, the group has trained more than 4,000 working professionals.
It comprises the film and TV school ESRA, the sound engineers’ school ISTS, and the ESRA 3D school of
animated film. Since 2007, ESRA has offered an optional fourth year in New York. The school offers professional
master’s degrees in screenwriting and production, as well as initiation internships in the audiovisual sector
under the JUNIOR scheme.
The group, which has premises in Paris, Nice and Rennes, also includes a department of further training.
The program for the fourth year in New York involves professors from various prestigious film schools such as
Columbia, Tish School and the New School for Drama.

“My earliest memory of my mother dates from when I was four or five: she
called my two brothers and me to the table saying, "Boys, Guillaume, dinner!"
and the last time I spoke to her on the phone, she hung up saying, "Take care,
my big girl." And, well, between the two there were quite a few
misunderstandings”. (Guillaume)

 Guillaume Gallienne entered the Comédie-Française in 1998, where he
performed Marivaux, Feydeau, Shakespeare, Molière... He has also been
seen on television and in such films as Sofia Coppola's MARIE-ANTOINETTE

the play ME MYSELF AND MUM, for which he won several awards and which
he is adapting for his filmmaking debut.
Created in 1991 by the member companies of the Motion Picture Association
and dedicated to the memory of Michel d’Ornano (former minister, mayor of
Deauville and co-founder of the Deauville American Film Festival), the Prix
Michel d’Ornano grants a first French film in order to help support its
recognition, promotion and exportation.
The Prix Michel d’Ornano is supported by the Franco-American Cultural Fund.
Founded by the SACEM and the two professional guilds in the United States
representing original creative artists working in the film and television industry

Composed of Frédéric Beigbeder (writer, editor and journalist), Adélaïde de
Clermont-Tonnerre (journalist and writer), François Forestier (writer and
journalist), André Halimi (journalist, writer and director), Jean-Claude Lamy
(journalist and writer), Eric Neuhoff (journalist and writer) and Gonzague Saint
Bris (journalist and writer), the Jury of the Lucien Barrière Literary Award,
during the Deauville American Film Festival, awards the 2013 prize to: CANADA
by Richard Ford (published in France by Les Editions de l’olivier and translated
by Josée Kamoun).
THE NOVEL I CANADA
Great Falls, Montana, 1960. Dell Parsons is 15 when his parents carry out a
hold-up, in the desperate hope of paying off a threatening creditor. But the
heist fails, his parents are arrested, and Dell finds himself faced with a choice
between running away or life in an orphanage. He decides to flee, crossing the
Canadian border into Saskatchewan. There he is taken in by Remlinger, a man
who makes him his apprentice and factotum. Remlinger is a libertarian”, a
believer in total individual freedom, who lives according to his own laws whilst
organizing hunts.
Canada is the tale of these years of apprenticeship against a magnificent
backdrop of nature, amongst men for whom only brute force counts, which is
underlined by a savagely violent final episode. Years later, Dell, now a
university professor, looks back on those years which marked him for life.
This novel of exceptional power and beauty will remind fans of Richard Ford of
his earlier book published in France by Éditions de l’Olivier in 1991, Wildlife.

THE AUTHOR I RICHARD FORD
Born in 1944 in Jackson, Mississippi, Richard
Ford is a major figure of contemporary
American literature. After publishing two
novels in 1976 and 1981 (A Piece of My Heart
and The Ultimate Good Luck), he temporarily
abandoned writing and dedicated himself to
journalism for the US magazine Inside Sports.
The Sportswriter (published in France by
Éditions de l’Olivier, 1999), a caustic satire on
the American middle-classes, won him wider
acclaim. It was also the first tome of an
ambitious literary project built around the
character of Frank Bascombe, who would
appear in two more of his novels. The first of
these was in 1995 in Independence Day, a
broad sweep combining personal history with
the political history of the United States, and
which won the Pen/Faulkner Award and the
Pulitzer Prize in 1996. Then Lay of the Land
(2006) closed the cycle based on Bascombe,
this character who some compare to John
Updike’s Rabbit, and who reflects 30 years of
American life.

39th American Film Festival in Deauville
The 39th American Film Festival will be held on the Deauville boardwalk from 30th August to 8th
September 2013.
Once again, and ever since it was first held in Normandy, Lucien Barrière Hôtels & Casinos will be
hosting this wonderful festival from the other side of the Atlantic. There will be a film screening room
for the world’s greatest film industry to inspire the public’s imagination. Screenings will cover period
dramas and films of contemporary life and the future. The festival will celebrate the dreams of the
movie industry and those of its stars.
The American Dream seen through American films.
Films to move us deeply
Naturally we will be moved even more this year with the festival’s spectacular opening feature of a
preview open to the general public of Behind the Candelabra, the magnificent film directed by Steven
Soderbergh starring Michael Douglas and Matt Damon.
39th year of proud partnership
Being a sponsor means taking the time and care to provide the best support requiring constant
patience and active participation at all times. Which is why this long-standing partnership that has
run for 39 years and is still going strong, means so much.
Lucien Barrière Hôtels & Casinos is proud to team up with this wonderful festival that rounds off the
summer like a director puts the finishing touches to a well filmed scene.
Lucien Barrière Hôtels & Casinos sponsors the Arts & Culture
Being a sponsor to the Film Industry is not just about providing services: it is a deliberate, long-term
investment and the result of many years work, making it one of Lucien Barrière Hôtels & Casinos’
annual events to rank alongside the French Film Awards (les César) and the Cannes, Deauville &
Dinard film festivals (covering the British, Asian & American works). Not forgetting the Diane &
Lucien Barrière Foundation annual awards that promote worth-while first works from young writers
and directors for the stage or screen.
For nearly 40 years now, the annual American Film Festival in Deauville has also been a stage where
new young American directors can be introduced and raise their profile.
This 39th Festival in Deauville will be like the previous, number one on the curiosity chart and a
precious time for all film lovers!

Air France Partner of the 39th Deauville American Film Festival
From 30 August to 8 September 2013, Air France will be an official partner of the 39th Deauville
American Film Festival. To mark the event, the Company will propose a selection of movies screened
on board its long-haul flights during the festival.
In all cabin classes, all Air France passengers have access to a rich and varied entertainment offering
brought to them on an individual screen. In all, there are some 600 hours of programmes available,
including 85 to 125 full-length movies and a juke-box of 200 to 300 CDs with around 3,000 music
titles. Every month, the Company adds new features to its in-flight entertainment programme,
including a selection of the latest American movies along with a renewal of the classics.
Enjoy a movie as soon as you board the aircraft

Boeing 777-300 and 747-400s. The system will ultimately equip the entire Air France long-haul fleet.

dollars in 2012. This joint-venture offers customers the benefits of a vast network, numerous frequencies,
competitive fares and a streamlined service on transatlantic routes.

On the footsteps of Johnnie Walker…
The vision and ambition of the Walker family has been inspired by progress and great achievements
for almost two centuries, turning a modest company into a global and successful business. The art of
blending created by John Walker is carried on by generations of Walkers, with knowledge and
passion.
Undeniably rich and smooth, Johnnie Walker blends, and mostly BLACK LABEL, are acclaimed as
masterpieces of blending craftsmanship. Built on roots from the four corners of Scotland, the brand’s
legacy is as diverse as these areas that create one of the richest stories of all kinds.
The Walker establishment has always demonstrated a pioneering spirit. Since 1870, the Brand identity
is created: oblique label and square bottle. But it’s only in 1909, when the Red Label was launched,
that the Dandy or The Striding Man was drawn, a caricature of its founder, John Walker. This
Gentleman embodies the brand spirit: the pioneering spirit, success, dynamism
The Man Who Walked Around The World.
Proud of its origins and codes, Johnnie Walker asked the famous actor Robert Carlyle, born and raised
in Scotland, to discuss the entire story of Johnnie Walker in one sequence shot, walking through a
Scottish landscape in a 6 minutes commercial broadcast worldwide.
This movie, shot near Loch Doyne (Perthshire) reveals the brand’s heritage but it also reveals how
close the brand is to the world of cinematographic art.
For this reason, Johnnie Walker is very pleased to meet you each evening on the terrace of the Casino
Royal Barrière and also in every places of the city for this 38th American Film Festival.
Keep Walking.

RENAULT, OFFICIAL PARTNER OF 39TH DEAUVILLE AMERICAN
FILM FESTIVAL
Renault, a faithful partner of the Deauville American Film Festival, is partnering the
event for the 14th consecutive year. This year’s festival will be held from Friday August
30 to Sunday September 8, 2013.
Renault Latitude and Grand Espace Initiale will be escorting US movie stars and the
members of the jury to the feet of the red carpet.
Renault and film: a love story dating back over 110 years
Automotive pioneer Louis Renault was one of the first industrialists to see cinema as a new
tool for communicating on his products. In Boulogne-Billancourt, west of Paris, the studios of
the Lumière brothers were located just a few streets away from his workshops. This
closeness engendered a unique relationship that has made Renault a preferred partner to
actors and directors. Today, more than 200 TV and movie productions are filmed each year
with a special fleet of 40 Renault vehicles.
In addition to its long-standing commitments to TV and cinema production, Renault
also partners the biggest movie festivals and awards ceremonies, including Cannes, the
Césars, Deauville, Alpe d’Huez, Marrakesh, London and many more across Europe.
Renault and the Deauville Festival: a 14-year partnership
Renault has been the exclusive automotive partner to the Deauville Film Festival for 14
consecutive years. Renault Latitude and Espace – now entirely familiar with the red-carpet
world – will from August 30 to September 8, 2013 be escorting the leading lights in US
cinema and the members of the jury, chaired this year by French actor Vincent Lindon.
Renault is also taking advantage of the event to present its latest products to the celluloid
stars. The brand’s new SUV, Renault Captur, will move into the spotlight in a fleet of three
vehicles. And following on from 2012, the French carmaker will also be electrifying the
festival nights with a fleet of Twizy and ZOE models.
Renault is proud to uphold the values of the Deauville Film Festival, which every year
seeks to reveal new, talented directors representing independent US cinema. Renault is
also benefiting from the growing awareness of the Deauville Festival, now the second
biggest in France in terms of media impact, behind Cannes, and the only film event in
the world to screen movies 24/7 for ten days – to the delight of the public!

Since 1949, year of the brand creation, Gant’s core values are founded on the
spiritual heritage of the East coast American way of life.
Many celebrities from the USA have become throughout the seasons followers of the
emblematic brand which is a synonymous of the unique, chic and casual way of life.
That is thus quite naturally that Gant, which allies subtly European elegance with the
American casual style from its origins, goes with the 39th edition of the American film
