Bad Buzz (2017)
Directed by Stéphane Kazandjian

Comedy

Film Synopsis

Eric and Quentin are a pair of hip television presenters who are at the height of their popularity.  They have hit upon a formula that has won them a mass audience among the younger generation and it seems that they can do no wrong - until the fateful night when they both get blind drunk at a wild party and start behaving like a pair of lobotomised crazies.  Their ludicrous exploits would probably have been forgotten and forgiven were it not for the fact that someone had the bright idea of filming them and uploading them onto the internet.  This surfeit of 'bad buzz' is something that the cool duo could have done without and might well herald the sudden and ignominious end of their TV careers.  Their producer appears more than willing to see the back of them - she gives them just 48 hours in which to redeem themselves.  Eric and Quentin are naturally delighted to have a reprieve, but fate seems not to be on their side.  No matter what they do in their increasingly desperate attempt to regain their reputations the result is always the same: total humiliating disaster...

sb-img-20
Is there any period of history that has not been vividly brought back to life by cinema? Historical movies offer the ultimate in escapism.
The best French war films ever made
sb-img-6
For a nation that was badly scarred by both World Wars, is it so surprising that some of the most profound and poignant war films were made in France?
The brighter side of Franz Kafka
sb-img-1
In his letters to his friends and family, Franz Kafka gives us a rich self-portrait that is surprisingly upbeat, nor the angst-ridden soul we might expect.
The history of French cinema
sb-img-8
From its birth in 1895, cinema has been an essential part of French culture. Now it is one of the most dynamic, versatile and important of the arts in France.
