Summary: Charlotte is a famous French actress, married to Yvan, a sports writer. Their social life is full of recognition and best service but also marred by the constant deluge of autograph hunters. Yvan's ego is at stake and he may not be able to take much more...

MY WIFE IS AN ACTRESS is a clever French comedy from Yvan Attal, who wrote, directs, and stars in the film. Jealous and paranoid, Yvan (Attal) is the husband of Charlotte (Charlotte Gainsbourg), a popular young actress who is constantly being cast in starring roles opposite attractive and seductive male actors. This drives Yvan crazy. But because he loves her, he must let her pursue her career dreams. A sports writer who operates in a world that is equally exciting, if not quite as glamorous, Yvan's own career is always secondary to Charlotte's. When she travels to London to work on her latest film, sharing the screen with the studly older actor, John (Terence Stamp), Yvan makes furious and impulsive trips via Eurostar back and forth between Paris and London. He worries that his marriage with Charlotte will not withstand the weight of his heartache. Meanwhile, his sister (Noemie Lvovsky) and her husband (Laurent Bateau) face marital dilemmas of their own as they debate whether to circumcise the baby boy they're expecting. These story lines converge, resulting in some very funny moments and heartfelt commentary on the difficulties of relationships.
