Quelques petites modifs :
A special tribute to Marilyn Monroe at the French Residence in Los Angeles ✨

As we approach the centenary of Marilyn Monroe’s birth, the French Residence hosted an event celebrating the publication of La Gouvernante de Marilyn by French author and producer Laurent Morlet.

The afternoon opened with the opportunity to discover a remarkable collection of Marilyn Monroe memorabilia presented by Greg Schreiner, collector and founder of the Marilyn Remembered Fan Club including the iconic dress worn by Marilyn in Let’s Make Love, alongside French actor Yves Montand, personal artifacts, jewelry and photographs.

The program continued with a conversation between Laurent Morlet and Greg Schreiner, moderated by journalist Deborah Laurent, exploring Marilyn Monroe’s life, legacy and enduring cultural influence, followed by a book signing with Laurent Morlet.

Events like this are also an opportunity to bring French and American cultural perspectives together, create conversations around the figures who have shaped our shared cultural history, and highlight the lasting connections between France and the United States through literature, cinema and the arts. 🇫🇷🇺🇸

Thank you to our speakers and guests for joining us at the French Residence!

French cultural calendar for October 🎃🍂

Halloween may get most of the attention in LA this October, but there’s plenty happening beyond the spooky season. Here’s what’s on our list this month:

🌱 On October 13 at UCLA, a conversation on urban ecology brings architecture and climate together to explore a timely question: how can we make our cities more resilient?

🎬 From October 16–19, Animation Is Film returns to Hollywood with some of the best new animation from around the world — including several French productions.

💃 On October 20 & 21, French choreographer Dimitri Chamblas comes to REDCAT with Ulysse Marion, an intimate performance exploring movement, memory and the way our experiences stay with our bodies.

🎤 On October 23 & 24, Mirlitons takes over the Nimoy Theater. Somewhere between dance, concert and performance, the show mixes movement, beatboxing, percussion and vocals.

🎨 Through October 24, discover the work of Paris-based French-Chinese painter Xie Lei at the François Ghebaly Gallery. Dreamlike, slightly unsettling and deliberately hard to pin down, his paintings blur the line between the familiar and the mysterious.

📚 And on October 24, French sci-fi author Alain Damasio comes to Village Well to discuss The Horde of the Counterwind, his cult novel finally available in English.

🔗 More information and RSVP links at the link in our bio.

🍿 That’s a wrap on Films on the Green Los Angeles!

Last Saturday, we gathered at the iconic Hollyhock House for a special screening of Jacques Demy’s Model Shop — his only American film and a true love letter to Los Angeles. 🌴🎬

What better place to rediscover this portrait of 1960s LA than this outstanding sunset, under the stars, right here in the city that inspired it? ✨

A heartfelt thank you to everyone involved for the live performance Jean-Luc Eldenwood, the food trucks ardi’s | food truck | los angeles Secreto and for those who joined us for this beautiful evening, and to our partners for bringing Films on the Green to Los Angeles.

Until next time! 💚
