The 2024 Tribeca Festival held the premiere of ‘The French Italian’ recently. The film has been in the news ever since it was announced. The film already had made an impact and started trending on social media from the time it was picked for a premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival. The cast and crew were present for the film premiere, and the movie received immense appreciation from all over.

For the unversed, ‘The French Italian’ revolves around Doug (Aristotle Athari) and Valerie (Catherine Cohen) who have committed a mistake. They have a hate-fueled fixation with the jerks downstairs — who constantly appear to be singing karaoke in a brownstone. This recently drove them to depart the city for Doug's parents' house upstate, foregoing a wonderful bargain on a rent-stabilized apartment in the process. Their pals are outraged, and regret has set in. They begin preparing their retribution, and before they realize it, they are creating an off-Broadway play starring their rival.

Writer-cum-director Rachel Wolther's caustic wit sets ‘The French Italian’ in the tradition of hipster comedies like ‘Girls And Search Party’, riffing on the art of Googling, lesbian double engagements, and New York City apartment politics. Add a bit of theatre dramatics to it, and you have cringe humour at its most hilariously self-centred best.

Here are a few pictures from the grand movie premiere:
