The Apprentices / Les Apprentis
Thirty years after its release in France, (re)discover Pierre Salvadori’s cult black comedy, starring François Cluzet and Guillaume Depardieu as two young adults searching for love and success. Antoine (Cluzet), a failed, depressed writer, and his best friend, the aimless Fred (Depardieu) move from menial jobs to disastrous burglaries, and from epic erotic adventures to disappointing relationships. While Fred fixates on Agnès (Claire Laroche), Antoine spirals further, and the two learn the sometimes painful lessons of a life in which love and friendship might be all they have in a film described by one reviewer as “a French _Withnail And I_”.
