Quentin Tarantino in Cannes for his film “Inglourious Basterds”
Jaeger-LeCoultre reunites the film’s talented artists alongside the American director
Many enriching encounters take place in Cannes during the Festival. From the inauguration of the Jaeger-LeCoultre Boutique in the presence of Ambassador Diane Kruger, to the red carpet where Jaeger-LeCoultre timepieces grace the wrists of magnificent actresses, the Cannes Film Festival also provides a unique opportunity to assemble the most talented artists of the silver screen, a discipline with which Jaeger-LeCoultre has strong ties.
On 22 May 2009, Jaeger-LeCoultre welcomed director Quentin Tarantino and his team of equally talented actors for lunch at the Carlton Hotel in Cannes to celebrate his latest film “Inglourious Basterds”.
Brand Ambassador Diane Kruger was accompanied by American actor Christophe Waltz, named Best Actor in 2009, Mélanie Laurent, Donny Donowitz, Daniel Brühl and Til Schweiger, all of whom star in the American director’s new film. Jaeger-LeCoultre thus enjoyed an exceptional moment of exchange and discussion during this inspiring encounter, which once again strengthened the ties between the Watchmaker and the Cinema.
