“Hazanavicius forges his own path… a hilarious meta-commentary on the struggles of making a remake.”
– Mary Beth McAndrews, Dread Central
“Delightfully silly… a salute to cinema so goofy and goodhearted that it is hard to resist.’’
– Tim Grierson, Screen International
“Fun and self-reflexive, while also leaning into its remake status for a few added laughs.”
– Siddhant Adlakha, IGN
“Arguably the goriest film to ever open the Cannes Film Festival, Hazanavicius’ meta zombie comedy is also one of the more clever and giddily entertaining ones.”
– Jordan Mintzer, The Hollywood Reporter
Kino Lorber is pleased to present FINAL CUT, directed by Academy Award® winner Michel Hazanavicius (The Artist) and starring Romain Duris (L’Auberge Espagnole) and Academy Award® nominee Bérénice Bejo (The Artist).
FINAL CUT opens exclusively in theaters on Friday, July 14, including the IFC Center in New York and the Laemmle Noho in Los Angeles.
Oscar® winner Michel Hazanavicius’ remake of Shin’ichirô Ueda’s cult hit One Cut of the Dead follows a director (Romain Duris, L’Auberge Espagnole) charged with making a live, single-take, low-budget zombie flick in which the cast and crew, one by one, actually turn into zombies. Selected as the Opening Night film of last year’s Cannes Film Festival and featuring hysterically unhinged performances from Oscar® nominee Bérénice Bejo (The Artist), Matilda Anna Ingrid Lutz (Revenge), and Finnegan Oldfield (Corsage), Final Cut is a sly love letter to the art of filmmaking and a blood-soaked, hilarious genre farce with a meta-to-the-max premise.
