My Wife Is an Actress

Art imitates life in this breezy comedy that casts Charlotte Gainsbourg alongside husband Yvan Attal.

For his feature debut, Attal presents a gentle romantic tale about an ordinary man navigating the milieu of Parisian life and trying to keep his insecurities in check when his actress wife lands a role with a handsome star (Terence Stamp).
