Mitterand Film
A film about the French President Mitterand, who died in 1996, opens in Paris tomorrow. It’s the first time a modern-day French leader has been portrayed on film because of the strict French privacy laws. Le Promeneur du Champ-du-Mars was made against the wishes of Miterrand’s family and supporters and certain scenes have had to be cut. Caroline Wyatt reports on the film and the fuss it has caused.
