The clips he\u2019s been able to sneak a look at lead him to fear the worst. With his editor as an accomplice, he manages to spirit away the rushes to his aunt\u2019s place in the C\u00e9vennes, to finish the film as he envisions it. Instead, its completion is constantly postponed, as he creates endless diversions and impasses, which alternate between the comic and the downright disturbing. A semi-autobiographical comedy about a filmmaker struggling to complete his new film,\u00a0The Book of Solutions\u00a0debuted at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, eight years after Gondry&#8217;s previous film. With C\u00e9sar Award-winning actor Pierre Niney\u00a0channelling Gondry\u2019s imaginative, innovative and anxious energy into the role of Marc, the director of a tumultuous film production,\u00a0The Book of Solutions\u00a0provides a tantalising insight into why Gondry took so long to make his next film.&#8221;\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, sans-serif;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>COMING SOON IN US THEATRES AND ON DIGITAL.
