Cornerstone Boards Parisian Waiter Drama With Poésy & Woodall

Cornerstone has acquired worldwide sales rights to A Waiter in Paris, the feature debut of Peter Hoar, starring Leo Woodall and Clémence Poésy; BBC Film, Curzon, Cineart and Madman back the project with pre-sales to Curzon (UK), Cineart (Benelux) and Madman (Australia). Adapted by Ben Hopkins from Edward Chisholm’s memoir, the Paris-shot drama follows an Englishman who joins Parisian waiters and navigates love, nightlife and the precarity of the trade, with shooting planned on location in Paris.
