London co-stars as Paris in JE T'AIME JOHN WAYNE, the story of a young man who lives out his dream of being French cinema icon Jean Paul Belmondo, star of Jean-Luc Godard's new wave classic A BOUT DE SOUFFLE. He’s got the sharp suit and a pack of Luckies, but will he find the perfect girl to complete the picture? This first film from director Toby MacDonald and producer Luke Morris was a hit at film festivals around the world, was BAFTA nominated and won the European Film Award for Best Short in 2001. Shot in 35mm in black and white, it stars Kris Marshall (LOVE ACTUALLY, FOUR FEATHERS) and Camilla Rutherford (GOSFORD PARK, THE DARJEELING LIMITED). Luke Morris and Toby MacDonald were recently BAFTA nominated for the second time for HEAVY METAL DRUMMER, a film about a young heavy metal fan in the Middle East. "One of the great things about the film is how London substitutes for Paris. The script lets us make London look romantic, it lets us make it look cool. If you have black and white it can look really beautiful at times. London looks how we wish it looked." Toby Macdonald on Je t'aime John Wayne
