Call My Agent!: Complete Series (DVD)
Call My Agent is a witty and satirical hit series produced by the brilliant Cedric Klapisch (L'auberge espagnol) that takes you right to the heart of the talent management business, and features top-line French actors playing themselves - Nathalie Baye (Catch Me If You Can), Cecile de France (High Tension), Gilles Lelouche, Audrey Fleurot, Julie Gayet and Francois Berleand are just a few of the faces you'll see featured.
The Samuel Kerr Agency is exactly what you would imagine a Paris-based talent agency to look, to sound and to feel like. But the drama of the staff within the agency drives the energy here - after Kerr's death in the opening episode, the key agents have to fight to preserve all that they have built in the business. It's brilliantly framed drama with no shortage of humor or cameo appearances from some of the biggest stars in the world including Juliette Binoche (The English Patient), Isabelle Adjani (Possession), Isabelle Huppert (The Piano Teacher), Sigourney Weaver (Alien), Charlotte Gainsbourg (Nymphomaniac), Christopher Lambert (Highlander) and Jean Reno (The Professional).
