Juliette Binoche obviously really did not appreciate the volley of green wood launched by Jamel Debbouze on Friday, at the start of the Cesar evening.
"I don't agree with letting you denigrate this cinema, nor those who take the risk of doing it, it's too easy," the
actress wrote on Instagram on Saturday, addressing the humorist and actor she had interrupted the day before, during the first speech of the 48th Cesar ceremony.
"Even with all the liberties that stand-up comics can take, auteur films are fragile, difficult to make"
, reminded Juliette Binoche on the social network, reaffirming
"all the respect and love"
qu she wears to the comedian.
“We are lucky to be able to have a tremendous diversity of films in France thanks to the various financial aids that the world envies us.
All diversity must be expressed,”
she added.
