On the poster for "L'Avare" by Molière at the Théâtre des Variétés, Michel Boujenah returns to the microphone of Anne Roumanoff, Wednesday in "It feels good", on what is for him a real role of composition, as well as his totally opposite relationship to money.
INTERVIEW
Composition role, role against use ... Whatever the expression, one thing is certain: Michel Boujenah is the opposite of the role of Harpagon in
L'Avare
by Molière, which he plays until January in Variety theater in Paris.
He explains Wednesday to Anne Roumanoff his very generous relationship to money, on the occasion of his invitation in
It feels good

"I've been ripped off my whole life"
Michel Boujenah readily recognizes it: Harpagon is for him "a real role of composition".
"I would have liked to look a bit like him", laughs the actor.
"But I can't: I'm a broken basket and a catastrophic businessman."
If he regrets not looking a little like L'Avare, it is because Michel Boujenah's very liberated relationship to money has caused him some problems.
“I've been ripped off my whole life,” he says. “And I think it's gonna last until the end of days.”
A problem that does not seem to weigh him down too much.

"My kif is the happiness of others"
Michel Boujenah thus recognizes that he is able to give 20 euros to his children if he sends them to buy ... bread.
Without claiming change on his return.
"I know the price of bread, but I can not resist giving, to share", explains the actor.
"My kif is the happiness of others. The happiness of the people I love, first of all. And then even of men, otherwise I wouldn't be doing this job."
Quite the opposite of Harpagon, capable of plotting against members of his own family.
