Costa-Gavras planning a Euro IMDb - The Hollywood Reporter
Berlin International Film Festival jury president Costa-Gavras, in his role as president of the Cinematheque Francaise, is hatching plans to launch a European counterpart to online movie directory IMDb.
The initiative was presented to the Paris-based Cinematheque’s board at a recent meeting and was approved in principle, though details have yet to be hashed out.
“We’re studying the feasibility,” Costa-Gavras said. “We have formed a committee. I think in six months, when I’ve finished my next film, we will have decided how to go about it.”
The initial feasibility committee is currently all French, but the idea is to widen the project out to other European partner archives. The Greek-born writer-director said the on-line directory would be in at least three languages — French, English and one other as yet undecided - and the project would be led by the Cinematheque Francaise.
