French “It” girl and actress Roxane Mesquida has made some interesting career choices. In “Rubber,” released earlier this year, she played a woman pursued by a vengeful killer tire. You know, the kind that’s attached to a telepathic car. This spring, Mesquida appeared as a sapphic sorceress in “Kaboom,” a film that was called “a sophomoric exercise in black comedy, supernatural excess and apocalyptic silliness mixed in with straight/gay/bi soft-core porn” by the Hollywood Reporter, but received rapturous applause after an out-of-competition screening at Cannes.

Good to see positive press
Lindsey Says:
It really is! I’m excited to hear she might be working on an ad campaign too.
Marty Says:
Her goal in Hollywood was to work with edgier movie directors. But none of them bothered to hired her. Sounds like she chasing silly Hollywood dreams.

@marty: you always leave mean comments.
what’s wrong with you?
Gregg Araki is an amazing director, you should watch more movies!!!
Marty Says:
I am not being mean. All I am saying is if she can get better connections in France, then she should work on her popularity in that country first. She is getting great fashion reviews over there, and it is increasing her image. And no, I don’t watch B- rated Movies that never hit my local cinemas.

She’s already popular in Europe. She made the best decision moving to the us, she shot three movies there and will have a lot of opportunities.
