Despite its meticulous organization, the César ceremony reserves its share of surprises each year.
A tradition that Juliette Binoche, nominated for the prize for best actress thanks to her performance in
Ouistreham
, honored this Friday, February 24, by engaging in an offbeat exchange with Jamel Debbouze.
The comedian, who was among the nine presenters of the ceremony, first launched into a speech on streaming platforms and cinema, carried by blockbusters.
Before deploring, jokingly, that French films do not rely more on special effects.
"If you don't have the budget for Avatars or fighter jets, put in ninjas," he suggested.
But from the screenplay you have to put them in.”

A ninja attack
And the actor to continue: “Because when I read, I am sorry: “Vincent Lindon walks languorously towards Juliette Binoche”, to “languidly” we emptied the room.
If you replace "languorously" not ninjas the life of my mother it is not the same film.
Can you imagine Vincent Lindon languidly walking towards Juliette Binoche and he gets attacked by ninjas from both sides?
There something is happening, there we are making entries!
The main interested party hastened to express her disapproval.
"I don't agree!" She exclaimed, all smiles, getting up.
Something to destabilize the comedian, who “did not expect this intervention”.
“You add ninjas Juliette, on the life of my mother we make a misfortune”, he assured.
To which the latter replied: "You haven't seen the film!"
And the actor to ensure the opposite, arousing the hilarity of the assembly and the main interested party.
“But what is happening to her?” muttered Jamel Debbouze.
Before going backstage: “Did you write this text to him?”
What a great way to start this carefully scrutinized ceremony.
