Viggo Mortensen: “I grew up with Westerns”.

An international star, the actor-director came to the Rencontres du Cinéma de Gérardmer to present his film “Jusqu’au bout du monde”, a beautiful romantic western starring Vicky Krieps. “I thought it was interesting to set the story of a free, independent woman in the western United States in the 19è century, where society was a bit savage, dominated by men,” confides Viggo Mortensen.
