Charlotte (and Beck)

funny we were just talking about the Gainsbourgs...

"If you were to draw a line from Serge Gainsbourg to Lars Von Trier to Beck, it would have to pass through Charlotte Gainsbourg.

At 38, the daughter of the legendary French crooner has been sketching out an impressive artistic existence for herself, without ever considering herself an artist.

She won best actress at Cannes this year for her role in Von Trier's controversial new film Antichrist. This Tuesday, she releases her third album, IRM, (MRI in French) the result of a two-year collaboration with Beck."

that antichrist movie sounds so freaky and scary, I can't even read the description wiki.
