SCOOP TRUFFAUT, CHABROL AND DEMY

ARRIVE ON NETFLIX

After having acquired, last January, the entire catalog of Ghibli studios,Netflix continues its quest for movie-going legitimation: the American giant has signed an unprecedented partnership with the French production company MK2 founded in 197 4.

Also, from Friday, April 24, thanks to this flagship of auteur cinema, twelve films by François Truffaut, a major figure in the New Wave, will be available on the platform.

Among them his first film, Les 400 coups, a thriller with Charles Aznavour entitled Tirez sur le pianiste, Le Dernier métro, with Catherine Deneuve and Gérard Depardieu or other films such as Les Deux anglaises et le continent or Fahrenheit 451.

This year again, Netflix will broadcast the works of Claude Chabrol and Jacques Demy, author of the Demoiselles de Rochefort and the Umbrellas of Cherbourg, without our knowing yet.

Finally in a few months, other iconic films that are part of the MK2 catalog will be visible on the platform, for our greatest pleasure. Films notably made by David Lynch, Kieslowski, or Xavier Dolan.

A breath of fresh air for the streaming giant, often criticized for its lack of content in feature films.
