Deauville 2021: Johnny Depp on why he prefers making films in France

ENCORE! © FRANCE 24

US actor Johnny Depp has always felt like an outsider in Hollywood, despite starring in box office hits like the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series. The actor took to the red carpet at the Deauville American Film Festival on Sunday to present his film "City of Lies". It tells the story of an LAPD detective investigating the murders of hip-hop legends Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G.. Johnny Depp tells FRANCE 24 why it's so different making films in France compared to the US.

Also in this live update from Deauville, our reporter Clovis Casali tells us about jury president Charlotte Gainsbourg and her new documentary "Jane by Charlotte". It explores the incredible life of her mother Jane Birkin, the muse of late singer-songwriter Serge Gainsbourg, Charlotte's father.
