Jean Gabin and Michèle Morgan in Quai des brumes (1938), by Michel Carné - GINIES / SIPA

As of Monday 11 May, France 2 is also on the decline. The channel will once again welcome its new afternoon shows, in particular  It starts today and I love you, etc. Consequently, exit the diffusion of cinema films at 2 p.m., an appointment to which the televiewers had taken taste. Sunday, France 2 will therefore broadcast its last film of the afternoon, La Folie des grandeurs. So yes, the sad minds will note that Gérard Oury's comedy with Louis de Funès and Yves Montand has already been broadcast twice in recent weeks. And more generally, we will have had the right to many films with Funès on this cinema box.

Switching to black and white

But may film buffs, even those who have never seen The Godfather , be reassured. France 3 takes over. From Monday, May 11, the channel will offer a French heritage film every day, with a predilection for thrillers featuring Jean Gabin. The actor will be present in nine of the ten films released in the next two weeks ...

Let us quote, in bulk, The Human Beast (1938) by Jean Renoir on Tuesday 12, Quai des Brumes (1938) by Marcel Carné on Thursday 14, or  Un Mone en hiver (1962) by Henri Verneuil on Friday 22. Amateurs great classics of French cinema will be delighted. For the others, France 2 keeps its hand over the weekend with its popular comedies. Next Saturday and Sunday, we will be entitled to Les Apprentis by Pierre Salvadori with François Cluzet and Guillaume Depardieu, then  Deux Heures minus the quarter before Jesus Christ  with Jean Yanne, Coluche and Michel Serrault.
