This NSFW French-language trailer (via TwentyFourBit ) for JoannSfar's Serge Gainsbourg: A Heroic Life makes us want to see the film. Mainly because Eric Elmosnino seems to inhabit Gainsbourg the way Sam Riley made like Ian Curtis in Control . Also: Nudity.
... Marvel like Sky Doll , not to mention other talented European artists like Posy Simmonds and JoannSfar. Jacques Tardi is one of the greats and I'm happy that Fantagraphics has undertaken the project of bringing his works to American audiences.

The first full trailer for JoannSfar’s biopic Serge Gainsbourg (vie héroïque) launched yesterday, and—what a shocker—there’s a naked chick in the first twelve seconds.

We may be losing the pounds that contain our genius, our humanity, our love, and honesty!" - Woody Allen "We either make ourselves happy or miserable. The amount of work is...

Yes, Louisa May Alscott, who was no slouch herself when it came to a thriller , is collaborating with one Lyn Messina on a new edition of Marmee’s girls’ story, undead meeting up with pickled limes this time round. The title immediately made me think of JoannSfar’s Little Vampire...
