ALINE trailer (2022) Valerie Lemercier
After “Marie's Story” and “Take a Chance on Me,” French director Jean-Pierre Améris is re-teaming with Paris-based Indie Sales on his next film, “It Takes Two to Tango,” a romantic comedy starring Valérie Lemercier (“Aline,” “Nicholas on Holiday”).
The film is currently shooting in Geneva and France, and stars Gérard Darmon ("King") and Patrick Timsit ("Brother and Sister"). The plot revolves around Antoine Toussaint (Darmon), a famous and disillusioned 70-year-old crooner who meets Victoire (Lemercier), a kind-hearted fan with a few loose ends, while on a train to Geneva, where he plans to end his life. This unlikely meeting thwarts all of Antoine's plans, for better or for worse.
“It Takes Two to Tango” is produced by Denis Carot and Sophie Revil at France’s Escazal Films and will be released in France by ARP in April 2025.
