What does it take to create the right household drama?
I believe there must be a secret within the household, rigidity constructing round that secret, and characters who love one another with out with the ability to inform or present it.
What cues did you give actress Izia Higelin for her function?
I primarily requested Izia to carry again her power. Directing an actor is, above all, a matter of belief. Izia and I discovered that belief with one another in a short time.
Inform us about mixing comedy into mundane conditions and balancing that with the movie’s extra critical themes.
I attempt to take every scenario out of the unusual by including fantasy, like Marylou’s lover becoming a member of her in inconceivable disguises. The concept is to at all times search for what may be humorous at any second the characters are experiencing. The road between drama and comedy may be very skinny. When you see a person fall down a staircase, if he dies, it is horrible; if he will get up, it may be very humorous. It is round this border that I weave the staging. For Juliette in Spring, I wrote characters who, too modest to speak to one another, selected to speak with humour, which feeds the dialogues with fixed jokes. Then I selected actors and actresses who’ve a way of comedy.
French movie Anatomy of a Fall recorded various victories in 2024. Does this offer you hope for French cinema to change into extra mainstream?
There’s a nice variety of filmmakers inside French cinema, and lots of expertise. In fact, all these movies have their place everywhere in the world! I’m notably pleased for Anatomy of a Fall since it’s directed by a girl and what a girl.
