The Big Picture (2010) sees director Eric Lartigau attempt to adapt Douglas Kennedy's US-based novel of the same name within a French setting. Considering the wealth of well-made thrillers to emerge from the French film industry, it seems like the perfect environment in which to tackle Kennedy's prose. Starring current French heartthrob Romain Duris, The Big Picture is a film built around its multi-layered protagonist, which likes to ask many questions - but which answers very few.
