This is more than a little late, but several film clips and a making-of for “La Rafle” were released. You can watch them at Allocine.fr! Mélanie is featured in the first and fourth, as well as the making of. I’ve made screencaptures of those three videos and added them to the gallery.

For the release of “La Rafle”, Mélanie was interviewed on talk show “L’Invité” as well as the website Cinefil.com. You can watch the videos here and here and also view captures below. Enjoy!

Mélanie was interviewed after the Césars yesterday by Canal+. I’ve screencapped it for the site below, but you can also watch the original here! Worth noting is the unfortunate news that Mélanie will not be at the Academy Awards next Sunday with the rest of the “Inglourious Basterds” cast. Still, at least we did get to see her at the Golden Globes!

Here is a video covering the shooting of an upcoming — or current? — feature on Mélanie in L’Express Styles. I’m not sure when the magazine hits stands, but it looks like it’ll be a beautiful shoot! I’ll be capping the video for our gallery later today, but as with Madame Figaro, we would love donations of scans of the actual feature! Credit is always given. EDIT: Thanks to Melfan for the heads-up: the issue hits stands tomorrow!

A full length trailer has been released for Mélanie’s upcoming film “La Rafle”, to be released March 10th in France. She’s featured very briefly, but you can view screencaptures in our gallery and the video itself embedded below. Enjoy!

I was right — we didn’t have to wait long at all for more “La Rafle” content! A teaser trailer has been released, which you can view below, as well as screenaptures that have been added to the gallery. I’ve also added some belated “Le Concert” screencaptures from the full-length theatrical trailer and a brief making-of.

There’s a nice little feature on Le Figaro’s website about Mélanie which summarizes her career from her discovery up until the present day and then her future projects. No breaking news, but she does talk briefly about her character in La Rafle. I’m rusty with translating and not fluent in the first place but I am hoping in the future after I brush up we’ll be able to bring you (amateur) translations of some of her French press for readers who don’t speak the language. It’s better than nothing, right?

En ce moment, c’est l’actrice française que tout le monde s’arrache. Cet été, pas moins de trois films sortent en salle, affichant son joli minois, sa fine ­silhouette fluide et sa peau diaphane. À 26 ans, ­Mélanie ­Laurent enchaîne les rôles avec bonheur et ­détermination. Vingt-deux films en dix ans de carrière. Tout semble sourire à cette comédienne, César 2007 du meilleur espoir féminin, à l’instinct sûr et au grand regard vert.

Also, I happened to stumble upon a newly-posted teaser trailer for her next post-Basterds film, Le Concert! It’s only 30 seconds long, but Mélanie-centric, and we finally learn the name of her character: Anne-Marie Jacquet. I’ll add screencaptures to the gallery soon, but in the meantime, here’s the video of it. Enjoy!

Time for another quick round-up of Inglourious Basterds material! I’ve made video captures of Mélanie’s appearances in the teaser trailer, American trailer, international trailer, and a film extract and added them to the gallery. In all clips released so far, she’s featured all too briefly for a character that’s the focus of a third of the film — I guess we’ll have to wait til it’s officially in theaters to see any more.

Also, there are some nice pictures of Mélanie featured on the film’s official website, alongside quotes of Shosanna’s dialogue. I’ve taken screencaptures of all I could find and added them to the gallery as well. Enjoy!

Finally, if you have yet to watch any of the trailers, here’s the international one embedded for your viewing pleasure. Mélanie has the most screentime in this one out of the three, although that isn’t saying much!
