New US Trailer for B&W Thriller 'The Stranger' with Benjamin Voisin

"I do wonder if I love you. You're a strange man... Different." Music Box Films has unveiled a new official US trailer for the French film The Stranger, the latest film from acclaimed filmmaker François Ozon, following last year's When Fall Is Coming. This first premiered at the 2025 Venice Film Festival last fall and opened in France last year - coming to the US this spring to watch in theaters. Set in 1930s Algeria, the film stars Benjamin Voisin as the apathetic Frenchman Meursault who displays total indifference to life. His emotional detachment leads to a murder, followed by a trial that scrutinizes both the crime & his character. It's an adaptation of the famous Albert Camus novel of the same name (L'Étranger), first published in 1942 by the French philosopher. Ozon states for the record: "It was an immense challenge to adapt a masterpiece that everyone has read and that every reader has already staged in their own mind." Starring Voisin, with Rebecca Marder, Pierre Lottin, Denis Lavant, and Swann Arlaud. The film is presented in B&W as an intriguing tale of murder, but also as a look back at France's connection with Algeria. Have a look below. // Continue Reading ›
