Yesterday I was reading the as-always-splendid Kim Morgan's piece on Michael Haneke's The Piano Teacher - speaking of splendid - when I was reminded of Mr. Magimel, so so pretty therein as Isabelle Huppert's object d'obsession.

And from there I realized he's never gotten the gratuitous treatment. In my defense, other than Haneke's film and La haine I've never seen anything else of his work. Although that's not much of a defense, I probably should've seen something else of his work by now, he's been around since he was a kid. Oh well. Woe unto the world until this is righted! The no gratuitousness thing, that is. Which is righted. Now. No more woe, then!


















And these last several pics of Benoit hanging out with Romain Duris and Clément Sibony are press pics for 1998's Déjà mort, which I think I might have to see now, with haste.
