Love Me If You Dare hits one million admissions

The film Love Me If You Dare has surpassed one million admissions in French cinemas, according to Écran Large. Directed by Yann Samuell, it is his first feature film and he cast Guillaume Canet and Marion Cotillard in the lead roles. The screenwriter rewrote the script more than twenty-five times before teaming up with Christophe Rossignon, producer of La Haine and The Crimson Rivers. Upon its release, it was often compared to Amelie, but Samuell cites influences from Trainspotting, Fight Club, Charlie Chaplin, and Frank Capra. The film opens with the provocation "dare or not dare?", two eight-year-old children who already embark on games with dramatic consequences.
