Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Jaoui and Bacri were real-life partners for decades and frequent screenwriting collaborators—this was their final film together before Bacri's death in 2021.
Castro's character mirrors France's obsession with aging celebrities clinging to relevance—think of it as a Gallic 'Sunset Boulevard' for the reality TV era.
