Isabelle Huppert Instagram – Introducing our Issue 12 cover star: Isabelle Huppert!
The acclaimed actor has always loved going to the cinema in Saint Germain. And two cinemas in particular have a close place in her heart: Christine Cinema Club and École Cinéma Club, which are both programmed by her son, Lorenzo Chammah. They are rep cinemas, which screen cinematic classics alongside deeper cuts. “It’s really a celebration for movie lovers and movie buffs.” says Huppert. “You could go from an old film by Robert Bresson to an old film by David Lynch or from a classic Orson Welles like Citizen Kane (1941)… It’s really wonderful—you could spend a whole day there and never get bored.”
For our latest issue—themed ‘Sanctuary’—we met Huppert at Cinéma Christine to discuss her undying passion for film as well as her life, philosophies and many roles, from The Piano Teacher to her upcoming part in titles such Asgar Farhadi’s ‘Parallel Lives’. The interview is now available to read online via the link in bio, and available to purchase at a-rabbitsfoot.com
