Cinema : "Mesrine Killer Instinct" & "Mesrine Public Enemy No.1"
Starring: Vincent Cassel, Cécile de France, Gérard Depardieu Roy Dupois, Gilles Lellouche, Elena Anaya
Inspired by the life of France’s most notorious criminal, "Mesrine: Killer Instinct" and "Mesrine: Public Enemy No.1" chart the rise and fall of the often marvelled, yet utterly ruthless gangster Jacques Mesrine. The films follow the incredible series of hold ups, prison breaks, and kidnappings throughout the 60s and 70s across several continents, assuming multiple disguises and identities which won Mesrine the title “The Man With 1000 Faces”.
Almost 30 years since his spectacular death, shot down in a hail of police bullets, The Award-winning team of writer/director Jean-Francois Richet bring to the big screen the story of the man behind the legend. MESRINE stars Vincent Cassel (Eastern Promises, Ocean’s 13), Gérard Depardieu (Coco, Cyrano de Bergerac), Ludivine Sagnier (Paris, Je t’aime, Swimming Pool) and Mathieu Amalric (Quantum of Solace).
