Hollywood star Juliette Binoche prepared for her role in new thriller A Few Days in September by meeting with real-life secret agents.

The Santiago Amigorena-directed movie sees Binoche star as a member of the French secret service, and she made sure she had first-hand espionage experience for the role.

She says: "I was able to understand that you can never really retire as a secret agent, because you will always have secrets. I think an actor needs a certain realism and truth to be real on the screen."
