This year director Mark Cousins is along for the ride and will be filming as they go. Their off-beat grand tour will take in landmarks and people connected to the producer's life and films. From the locations in Paris used in Bertolucci's "The Dreamers", to Lyon, the birthplace of cinema, and on to the Riviera festival.
