Marine Vacth is not a new face in the fashion industry, as
she her delicate features and huge blue eyes have seen her starring in
campaigns for Yves Saint Laurent and Luois Vuitton, among others. But now the
22 year old French model is launching her acting career with the lead rols in
Francois Ozon’s new film, Jeune et Jolie, which translates as Young and
Beautiful.
The film is about a teenage girl who voluntarily decides to
take up prostitution as a career told in four seasons and four songs. She lies
about her age to rich older men, and hides it from her parents and friends,
until an unexpected event forces her to face the real world.
Vacth has already been compared to several legendary French
actresses, such as Marion Cotillard and Brigitte Bardot, but she is quick to
brush off any ego-building, saying she is flattered, but she is only at the
beginning of her career and just wants to take it one day at a time.
Another steamy French film has been released this week to
high critical acclaim – Blue is the Warmest Colour a love story between two
women, which explores in intimate detail the journey of first love.
