A FILM BY Yvan Attal
An enjoyable romantic comedy! A terrifically deft picture about the thick line that separates movie glamour from the real world, and the thin line between common sense and paranoia. Ms. Gainsbourg is a winning performer.

Synopsis
My Wife Is An Actress is a screwball romantic comedy about Yvan (Yvan Attal), a successful sports writer married to Charlotte (Charlotte Gainsbourg), a popular movie star with whom he’s madly in love. The problem is that everyone else in Paris seems to be in love with her too. Her latest film role, opposite John (Terence Stamp), a suave, international star, is enough to send Yvan over the edge, devising all kinds of schemes to test his wife’s fidelity. My Wife Is An Actress makes the directorial debut of actor Yvan Attal who co-stars with his real-life wife Charlotte Gainsbourg in this funny, perceptive look at a peculiarly male form of hysteria. Written and directed by Attal, the film was shot by director of photography Remy Chevrin and produced by Claude Berri with Pierre Grunstein serving as Executive Producer.
