From a screenplay by Patrick Dewitt, based on his novel of the same name, FRENCH EXIT is reimagined for the screen with tantalising detail. Collaborating again with DeWitt, Director Azazel Jacobs (The Lovers) brings the film to life with thoughtful and precise direction.
"My plan was to die before the money ran out," says 60-year-old, penniless Manhattan socialite Frances Price (Michelle Pfeiffer), but things didn’t go as planned. Her husband, Franklin, has been dead for 12 years. With his vast inheritance gone, she cashes in the last of her possessions and resolves to live out her twilight days anonymously in a borrowed apartment in Paris, accompanied by her directionless son, Malcolm (Lucas Hedges), and a cat named Small Frank - who may or may not embody the spirit of Frances' dead husband.
