Your first memory of cinema?
L'Incompris,
by Comencini.
I was with my father.
It was the first time that I saw my father cry, I myself was in tears and I have an absolutely moving memory of this film which is the story of a man and his two sons.
One of the two sons is going to die, and this child is asked to write an essay.
He is going to write an essay where he will talk about his relationship with his father, with whom he has a rather distant relationship, and the father will be completely upset by this writing.
Your worst memory in the gym?
Maybe
La Piece
, with Black M. It was with my son.
Sorry for those who did, I'm sorry, but I couldn't take it anymore.
My 12 year old son was ecstatic and thanked me and then asked me if I would like to see him a second time.
But I let his father do it.
A movie you would like to live in?
Oh no, long live life, the film of my life.
The cult movie you've never seen?
To be or not to be
, by Ernst Lubitsch.
I still have some catching up, but there is a platform called the Cinéthèque, which is absolutely brilliant.
And there, I see all the films again.
It's absolutely amazing, so I'm going to see
To be or not to be
.
On this platform, there are plenty of great filmmakers to choose from and all the movies from around the world.
So it really is an amazing place.
A movie you love, but are ashamed to admit it?
The beach hotel,
by Michel Lang.
I'm not ashamed of anything, but my father had taken me to see
Les Misérables
by Harry Baur and the condition was that if I saw
Les Misérables
, I had the right to take him to see
L'Hôtel de the beach
.
So, I told him but there is no picture, it is obviously the
Hotel de la Plage
which is much better.
He was desperate for his daughter.
Which movie have you seen the most?
Out of Africa
, for the music, for the love story, it's so beautiful.
I saw it for the first time with my grandmother, we were crying.
I love to cry, I love it.
In life, much less.
But I love to cry in the cinema, I love that a film takes me in that way.
Which movie would you recommend to your best friend?
Mina Tannenbaum
, with Elsa Zylberstein and Romane Bohringer.
Because at one point, I don't know if it's one or the other who turns to the other and says: 'I really tried to replace you, I'm not there come'.
So when we were a little angry with my best friend, we were like 'we're going to see this movie'.
Which film would you recommend to your worst enemy?
Clairvoyance and Manigance
(by Éric Fourniols)
,
a film I made with Dieudonné and Anémone, because it is absolutely abominable.
I've never seen it again, but it's, I think, the worst movie you can make in your career.
The soundtrack that has marked your life the most?
Out of Africa
.
I have this music in my head as I tell you about it.
And I can also say that I really like the trailer for
L'Étreinte
, because I find David François Moreau's music very, very beautiful.
