We almost wanted to change the name of Christophe Barratier’s fifth film, inspired by Jean-Jacques Goldman’s song, to “Fly away”… Because Victor Belmondo, who has a five-year career and seven films a day, is curious. her first major role with sensitivity as well as humility. So, 26-year-old Thomas, the loony child of an elite doctor (Gérard Lanvin) specializing in party animals and rare diseases, and again “parks” his convertible in the parent pool on an evening of binge drinking. It is enough! Here he is called upon to straighten out his ways: either his father cuts off his food with admirable patience until then, or Thomas agrees to care for one of his 15-year-old patients, Marcus, who suffers from a heart condition. Even when approached for the role, Victor started by following the casting path as he does in every movie. To be smart? Using your last name? No. “ I tried so many times that it failed… I cry with happiness when I’m elected. she admits.
BEBEL’S DNA
When she realized that her desire to be an actress would not fly away with her childhood, she decided to chart her own path. The way in which not a spoiled child, but an industrious person passes the stages one by one, without a piston, without a right transition. She took drama first, then film lessons, directed sets, and before landing her first roles, The Very Private Life of Monsieur Sim, All Inclusive, or My babyBy Lisa Azuelos, who disclosed it in 2015. fly medarkened the pages of ideas about his character. ” In the end, she says, it all happened on set, instinctively, giving of herself. Christophe Barratier invokes an obvious inheritance: “ Beyond family resemblance, he inherits from his grandfather a grace, a thin, almost elastic side, a seemingly indifferent demeanor… But he never falls for imitation. »
A BRILLIANT TANDEM
With his young partner Yoann Eloundou, a novice who turns out to be a little sun, Victor forms the classic tandem with Intouchables model, Omar Sy and François Cluzet, where everything goes against it: here an amateur young adult. he learns to grow up with a more mature youth -necessitating disability-. Between the two actors, the current passes until they create a brotherly relationship that goes beyond the curtain. Their complicity is the value of this initiative story. If it wasn’t for him, he would have stayed on the marked paths of clever feel-good comedy. Since then, Victor’s schedule has been up. We saw that this year against Guillaume de Tonquédec. stop your lies and Bardot as filmmaker Roger Vadim. He will soon be playing an elevator repairman. He & she & the rest of the world, by Emmanuelle Belohradsky. If his career is on the rise, Victor Belmondo has his feet on the ground: I did not ask anything from anyone in my family, I did it on my own. If it’s easy, victory has no taste. »
