Oooh, You're an Angel: Caro's "The Vintner's Luck"

Can you say, "Haaawwwwwwtt??" French actors Jeremie Renier and Gaspard Ulliel found themselves in a production of New Zealand director Niki Caro's ("Wale Rider") latest, "The Vintner's Luck," which is screening in the Special Presentations section of TIFF. OK, the film is set in France. Ulliel plays an Angel who sort of "guides" Renier's character, a struggling wine grower in early 19th century rural France. Their relationship is complicated, and at one point their quasi-sexual (the one has wings being an Angel and all...) fly-around didn't quite give the full money shot, but it was still nice to see all the same. The two are pictured here over the weekend at a party hosted by the New Zealand Film Commission.
