"Gourmet cuisine is not for the common man." Samuel Goldwyn Films has debuted an official US trailer for a French historic drama titled Delicious, originally Délicieux in French. This premiered at the Rendezvous with French Cinema Festival, and stopped by others including Festival du Cinéma Français in Israel and the Norwegian Film Festival.

Rester vertical
Director: Alain Guiraudie
Writer: Alain Guiraudie
Offbeat auteur Alain Guiraudie has been making feature films since his 2003 debut No Rest for the Brave (which was, until recently, his only film available to see in the Us). Prior to that, he made short films throughout the nineties and two medium length films in 2001. In 2013, he won a Best Director award in Un Certain Regard for his excellent fourth feature, Stranger By the Lake, a title which finally earned him significant international acclaim. He began work on his next film, Rester vertical, in September, 2015, though he’s remained tightlipped about what it’s about, stating “the film will be set deep in the heart of France.” Other statements about the origins had Guiraudie stating the film’s aim is to ‘make the impossible possible.’ We can’t wait to see what he means.
