Marcello Mio is a 2024 comedy film written and directed by Christophe Honoré. In the film, actress Chiara Mastroianni confronts living in the shadow of her real-life father Marcello Mastroianni's legacy. She portrays a version of herself alongside her real-life mother, French actress Catherine Deneuve. Several other actors support the cast and play versions of themselves as well, including Fabrice Luchini, Nicole Garcia, Benjamin Biolay and Melvil Poupaud.[3]

The film had its world premiere in the main competition at the 77th Cannes Film Festival on 21 May 2024, being theatrically released in France on the same day by Ad Vitam Distribution.

Plot

[edit | edit source]

Chiara is an actress and the daughter of Marcello Mastroianni and Catherine Deneuve. One summer, she tells herself that she should rather live her father's life. She now dresses like him, speaks like him, and imitates his physical presence, and she delivers it with such command that others around her end up believing it and begin calling her "Marcello".[1]

Cast

[edit | edit source]

In the scene of an Italian TV reality show (Da noi... a ruota libera), the presenter is played by RAI television host Francesca Fialdini.[4]

Production

[edit | edit source]

Principal photography began on 21 August 2023 in Paris, and continued in Rome,[5] then in Latina and Formia, the latter of which was a city dear to Marcello Mastroianni.[6] Filming was scheduled to be completed after eight weeks, specifically on 13 October.[7] The film uses French, Italian, and (for the scenes with Colin) English.

The diverse[clarification needed][according to whom?] soundtrack consists of songs by Benjamin Biolay ('La Ballade du mois de juin' and 'Comment est ta peine?'), Alex Beaupain ('Dì, Marcello', 'Perché ridi' and 'Toccata tromba'), and excerpts from songs and instrumental works by Luigi Tenco, Rameau, Étienne Daho, Christian Badzura, Puccini, Sibelius, Wagner, Gianni Marchetti, Rota, Fabio Concato and Andrew Bird.[8]

Release

[edit | edit source]

Marcello Mio was selected to compete for the Palme d'Or at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival,[9] where it had its world premiere on 21 May 2024.[10] Ad Vitam Distribution theatrically released the film in France on the same day.[1] Lucky Red theatrically released the film in Italy on 23 May 2024.[11]
