While accepting the Middleburg Film Festival Achievement in Acting Award this weekend, Léa Seydoux told the crowd that her parents sent her to summer camp in Middleburg. “The first time I came to the United States,” she said, “I flew on my own, and I was eight years old, and I didn’t speak a word of English, which is true. I knew how to say ‘yes,’ ‘no,’ and ‘sorry, I don’t understand.’ So it was it was difficult, but also rewarding. I discovered a new culture. I didn’t know then that I would become an actress, and that this would be my life: traveling, discovering new cultures, and exploring human nature.”
That has become the 41-year-old Seydoux’s hallmark, as she accompanied her Cannes breakout “Gentle Monster” (Netflix) to Middleburg with Austrian filmmaker Marie Kreutzer. Seydoux is in the running for the Best Actress Oscar.

I signed, I heard, and then I saw, counting myself among the few dozen people who’d screened You Can See Everything before the film debuted in the first days of September as a secret addition to the Telluride Film Festival.
