LYON — The 11th Lumière Festival in Lyon, France, opened on Saturday with a celebration of its 10-year anniversary, a tribute to past Lumière Award recipients, and rousing standing ovations …
Dedicated to heritage cinema, the festival was established in 2009 by Thierry Frémaux and Bertrand Tavernier, the Institut Lumière’s respective director and president.
The ceremony capped off with a screening of Bedos’ romantic comedy and recent Cannes screener “La Belle Époque,” starring Auteuil and Tillier, about an aging, jaded cartoonist who rediscovers love.
