Hideaway (Le Refuge) will be released in late September

A pregnant woman is fascinating to behold. Her body undergoes a metamorphosis, grows rounder… it’s very attractive, sensual and mysterious. I feel a little bit like the Marie Rivière character, or the man at the café in the film: everyone wants to touch a pregnant woman! I told Isabelle from the start, «I want to eroticize your body, your belly. It needs to be very present, visible. I’m going to film it, caress it, that’s what the film is about.» A new beginning starts through this belly. The relationship between Mousse and Paul takes shape around this belly. It’s the basis for their connection.

Sylvain Chomet is the director of "The Illusionist," the French adaptation of Jacques Tati's story of the same name. The film, which is entirely animated, is released by Sony Classics on Christmas 2010.

Anton Corbijn's "The American," starring George Clooney, is  released by Focus Pictures Sep 1. 

Following the success of his award-winning first feature, the drama Control, director Anton Corbijn was deliberately looking to work on a new film centering on as different material as possible. He reveals, "I started reading thriller scripts. The theme of The American, of a loner trying to find redemption from the deeds he's done, interested me – as did the tension and the romance in the story. Here was something I saw could be not only suspenseful but also thoughtful.

Stephen Frears (High Fidelity, The Queen) is the director of "Tamara Drewe," starring Gemma Arterton. The film, which is an adaptation of the famous Tamara Drewe character as well as a graphic novel, is being released October 8 by Sony Pictures Classics.

“The script makes me laugh, it’s very, very funny, and very sexy and a very contemporary, modern film. And doing an adaptation of a comic strip is terribly liberating. You can sort of do anything; it frees you up in the most wonderful way. Comic strips are normally Superman, or about superheroes, but this is a comic strip which is also intelligent and about things you recognise. I’ve never made a film like this; I had to completely rethink how I do things," says Frears.
