Eleanor Coppola’s feature film directorial and screenwriting debut at the age of 81 — “Paris Can Wait” — stars Academy Award-nominee Diane Lane as a Hollywood producer’s wife who unexpectedly takes a trip through France, which reawakens her joie de vivre.

Anne (Lane) is at a crossroads in her life. Long married to a successfully driven but inattentive movie producer (Alec Baldwin), she finds herself taking a car trip from Cannes to Paris with a business associate of her husband (Arnaud Viard).

What should be a seven-hour drive turns into a journey of discovery involving mouthwatering meals, spectacular wines, and picturesque sights.

“A cinematic treat. A film worth savoring. A celebration of food, wine and stopping to smell the roses.” — Katie Walsh, Los Angeles Times

“Buoyant and light-hearted. Diane Lane is a pleasure throughout.” — Todd McCarthy, The Hollywood Reporter

“A delicious romantic bon bon. Diane Lane is irresistible. A road trip that shimmers with so many enticing temptations you may want to lick the screen.” — Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
