OSCAR-nominated screenwriter Julie Delpy is returning to foreign affairs. The indie filmmaker, who starred in and co-wrote Richard Linklater’s Before Sunset, has penned and is directing 2 Days in Paris. She stars opposite Adam Goldberg in the romantic comedy set over a 48-hour period in the City of Light.
Delpy’s original screenplay portrays two days in the relationship of an extremely neurotic New York-based couple. She stars as French photographer Marion and Goldberg plays American interior designer Jack. The stressed-out couple make a misguided attempt to re-infuse their relationship with romance in Paris – Marion’s birthplace as well as the home of several of her ex-boyfriends and high-maintenance, non-English-speaking parents.
