Sedona News – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of “Just the Two of Us” showing June 21-26 at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre.
When Blanche (Virginie Efira) meets the charismatic Gregoire (Melvil Poupaud) at a party her twin sister Rose drags her to, she thinks she has found the one. The ties that bind them grow quickly, and a passionate affair ensues.
Rose has serious reservations about Gregoire, but against her better judgment, they decide to marry and move in together. Blanche and Gregoire soon relocate far from Blanche’s family where her new life begins; having two children, working as an elementary school teacher, and learning to tiptoe around Gregoire’s unfounded burgeoning insecurities.
Little by little Blanche finds herself caught in the grip of a deeply possessive and dangerous man, desperate to escape his increasingly threatening affections.
Adapted from Éric Reinhardt’s prize-winning novel “L’amour et lesforêts” by Valérie Donzelli and Audrey Diwan, “Just the Two of Us” is a closely observed and tense thriller that doubles as an acute psychological study of a profoundly perilous relationship.
“Just the Two of Us” will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre June 21-26. Showtimes will be Friday and Sunday, June 21 and 23 at 7:00 p.m.; and Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, June 24, 25 and 26 at 4:00 p.m.
