Enjoyed Call my agent and want to see the actors in their best roles?

I was asked (thanks Dave and Alison) to offer some links to the actors who appear in this wonderful programme and below you will find a list of films I think will fit in nicely to the Call My Agent zeitgeist and display the various actors to their best.

Health warnings though:

  • Quite a few of the ‘stars’ are mainly known to French audiences for TV series, so for instance regarding Audrey Fleurot Spirals/Engrenages will be known to UK audiences but the marvellous Une Village Français won’t be.
  • Some of the films are available only in French such as Camping, Clara et Moi
  • You may have to hunt Amazon. Netflix Mubi.

Happy to receive your own suggestions and send me links to where they can be streamed.

The first table is reserved for the talent at ASK!
