Fan of Tom Hiddleston? This ad should interest you! Before playing in the Thor franchise, the British actor went into more independent cinema and collaborated three times with one of the most prominent English directors.
It is the filmmaker Joanna Hogg, whose retrospective in Paris in recent days created an event and sold out the Center Pompidou. For the occasion, Tom Hiddleston even made the trip to discuss his collaboration with Joanna Hogg and share his generosity with the large crowd.
Good news: three of the films featured in this retrospective are being released in cinemas in France for the first time. The first one from 2006 shows a very young Tom Hiddleston, very charming in his first film role! In the second film, Archipelago (2010), an insular and rather suffocating film, he finds himself at the mercy of a strained family reunion. And finally in the third feature film, Exhibition (2013), made before Thor, it’s only a small role, more of a wink. He plays a real estate agent in this film that revolves around art and architecture. The exhibition was presented in competition at the prestigious Locarno Festival. Three movie offers, all interesting!
