She didn't need a long speech to send a shocking message.

During the Cesar ceremony on Friday, Corinne Masiero presented the prize for the best costume.

And the heroine of the

Captain Marleau

series

took the opportunity to get naked in order to support intermittent entertainment workers particularly affected by the coronavirus, with a culture and live performance sector mobilized with the movement to occupy theaters.

"No culture, no future."

The actress arrived on stage at the Olympia in a

Donkey Skin

costume

, before removing it to reveal a bloody

Carrie

dress underneath

at the Devil's Ball

.

The stripping ends with "Who wants Roger's skin ... the intermittent".

On the back, the inscription "No culture, no future".

On the front side: "Give us back the art, Jean", a well-felt play on words addressed to the Prime Minister, with a reference to François Fillon.

“Now we're like that, all naked,” concludes Corinne Masiero.

A performance that divided Twitter but managed to cross the Atlantic, to the Hollywood site Deadline.

"My children can go to Zara but not to the cinema"

In a more or less civilized style, several personalities from the big screen also took advantage of the platform to share the concern of the cinema, and other cultural places still subject to closure.

“My children can go to Zara and not to the cinema… It's incomprehensible!

We need a political will so that the cinema continues to evolve, you must bear this responsibility as minister ”, declared for the Minister of Culture Stéphane Demoustier while receiving the César for best scenario for

The girl with the bracelet

.

“What we lack is what binds us together, the emotions we experience together […] So yeah, we can't wait to see you!

", Declared for her part the mistress of ceremony, Marina Foïs, to viewers in her introductory speech.

In front of her, a half-empty room in the Olympia, where only the nominees and a handful of other personalities, obviously masked, could take place, for health reasons.

For her part, the Minister of Culture Roselyne Bachelot had sent "a message of hope": "We are in the process of building with the sector the conditions for reopening of rooms", she assured before entering at the Olympia.
