The feature film jury for the second edition will be chaired by director, screenwriter and actor : OLIVIER MARCHAL

“Given the names of my renowned predecessors, I could not turn down the invitation to chair the Beaune International Thriller Film Festival. When you love cinema and Burgundy wine, there are some pleasures you just cannot decline. I get “from a reliable and undisclosed source”, as cops say, that Brian de Palma and Oliver Stone have emptied out wine cellars in Cognac. Chances are I might do even better this year in Beaune. That’s just too bad for you.
You shouldn’t have invited a former cop…”
