Aurélie Filippetti, Minister of Culture and Communication, learns with sadness the passing of Georges Lautner, the unforgettable writer and director of great unifying films, among whom The Gun Lords, which from its release in 1963 was a huge success, served by actors of inimitable talent and the truculentes dispatches written by Michel Audiard.
Inspired by writers like Simenon, Georges Lautner’s films have been led for thirty years by the most popular French talents of the great «family» of cinema: Bernard Blier, Mireille Darc, Francis Blanche, Paul Meurisse, Lino Ventura, Jean Lefebvre, Miou-Miou, Jean Gabin, Louis de Funès, Jean-Paul Belmondo, Alain Delon and Pierre Richard…
The public will remember the works of Georges Lautner that they were crossed by the whirlwind of life, farce and laughter.
