Having worked with Antony Cordier since his debut with Douche froide (Cold Shower), selected in 2005 at the Directors’ Fortnight, director of photography Nicolas Gaurin, AFC, returns with Classe moyenne (The Party’s Over!), creating images as cold and confrontational as the characters in this dark comedy. In this closed setting, where it is difficult to tell who is the most malicious or ignorant in their relationships with others, especially when social class differences are at the heart of the relationships, we eagerly follow these seven strong-willed actors—and Laurent Laffite is a master chef! With The Party’s Over!, Antony Cordier returns to the Directors’ Fortnight twenty years later for the 2025 edition of the Cannes Film Festival. (BB)
