Actress Audrey Tautou won America's hearts when she starred in the title role of Jean-Pierre Jeunet's Amelie in 2001, turning her into an in-demand superstar in her native France. Even so, she mostly shied away from Hollywood, her appearance in 2006's The Da Vinci Code with Tom Hanks being a rare exception, and in fact, she's only had two of her four movies released in the States since then, making many of her fans wonder what she's been up to the last six years. She's back now, starring in David and Stéphane Foenkinos' new romantic comedy Delicacy , adapted from David's bestselling French novel "La Délicatesse," playing Nathalie, a happy and successful businesswoman whose life changes dramatically when her husband of three years suddenly dies, leaving an emptiness...

Audrey Tautou's latest film, "La Délicatesse" -- or "Delicacy" -- encompasses several genres at once. The first part of the film feels like a storybook romance, as we follow her character Nathalie and her first love Francois (Pio Marmaï) as they meet, fall for each other, and get married -- everything is perfect, [spoiler alert] until the day he has an unexpected accident and dies. Then the film transforms into a study of grief and mourning, as Nathalie buries herself in her work and avoids most of the people in her life. But when she abruptly kisses her co-worker Markus (François Damiens), the film changes once again, now becoming a comedy. For Markus, life is now a "(500) Days of Summer"-inspired fantasy sequence, where the world becomes alive, and for Nathalie, it's a chance to begin again -- despite most everyone's shock and disapproval of her choice in partners. ("You can do better,...

Along with Marion Cotillard, Audrey Tautou is of course one of the best known French actresses internationally, and her films are always a safe bet to be wonderful. Her latest film, La Délicatesse, was released in France at the end of last year, and will be coming to the UK and Us in April and March, released as ‘Delicacy’.
We’ve now got the first Us trailer and poster to share with you, courtesy of Apple, and they give us an idea of the romance and comedy that we know and love of Tautou’s roles; it’s something she does perfectly.
“Audrey Tautou is Nathalie, a beautiful, happy, and successful Parisian business executive who finds herself suddenly widowed after a three-year marriage to her soul mate. To cope with her loss, she buries herself and her emotions in her work to the dismay of her friends, family and co-workers.
