THE DEAUVILLE AMERICAN Film Festival is set to pay homage to American star Keanu Reeves during its 41st edition which is set to take place September 4-14. As part of the tribute, Deauville will host a retrospective of Reeves's most popular movies. "Forever Neo from Matrix, Jonathan Harker in Dracula or Le Chevalier Danceny in Dangerous Liaisons, Keanu Reeves has demonstrated his ability to take on extremely varied roles during his long and impressive movie career. He has worked with directors such as Gus Van Sant, Francis Ford Coppola, Bernardo Bertolucci and more recently Richard Linklater," the festival said.
Reeves, who will be present in Deauville, made his directorial debut on Chinese/U.S. co-production Man of Tai Chi, a martial arts drama inspired by the life of stuntman Tiger Chen that came out in 2013. Reeves's next pic, Eli Roth's Knock Knock, which premiered at Sundance, will be released in France on September 23. The actor will have a busy 2016 with movies such as Nicolas Winding Refn's The Neon Demon. Reuters
