- You okay, Guillaume?

- Yeah.

Sure?

Yes, just great.

- Be careful.

- What?

Be careful, riding home.

Sure.

My love, can I talk to you a second?

Don't you think

we're kind of ticking over?

I mean, it's kind of calm.

What's that mean?

I don't know, our life, our routine.

All that.

Sometimes it feels like...

It's not what I imagined as a teen.

I wanted to travel, hit the road,

making music with my buddies.

I kinda think...

If I don't do it now, I never will.

Don't think,

you got a voice like an arse.

If you could string two notes together,

you'd put bacon on the table with it.

Quit gettin yer mind in a muddle, cocky.

It's yer mid-life crisis, s'all.

What's up?

Ya gommel, I feel it.

I feel the character entering into me.

I feel it there.

Du lard thunder 'n' Jesus!

I's not just the woman,

I's the actress!

You're wrong to begin.

What you don't plan to end.

Don't light the flame.

If love's only a game.

People say today.

People say others play that way

I'm not the others, oh no no.

Before becoming attached.

Before the first clash

I have to confess

I'll hold fast to your heart.

Across oceans vast

I'll be there when you dance.

With a never-ending cast

I'll invent a language.

To sing your praises

I'll pack our bags.

For infinite voyages.

The magical aura.

Of holy men in Africa

I'll invoke without remorse.

If you'll love me more

I'll crown myself queen.

So you'll be my king

I'll be all that you need.

Your every thing

I'll play every role.

To give you pleasure

I'll be meek, I'll be bold.

To satisfy your desire

I'll dazzle, I'll rebel

I'll cast a new spell

I'll turn into 24-carat ore.

If you'll love me more.

If you'll love me more.

- Like this?

- Yes.

I don't really see your problem.

You come to talk to your daughter

in her bedroom.

How'd you envision it?

I don't know, just not like that.

It feels flat.

Meaning?

I don't know. Cutesy, naive.

See?

Daddy coming

to tuck his daughter in.

It needs...

I don't know, it's wishy-washy.

It's weird me playing her dad, so if...

Guillaume, not that again.

In the film, you had a kid at 20.

It's not weird.

Seriously, buddy. It's just great.

If it's a problem, tell me earlier.

I have no plan B.

Seriously, you've nailed the role.

- Right, Camille?

- Totally.

We shoot? Or one last rehearsal?

Let's do it.

- Camera.

- Let's go!

Silence on set!

Camera rolling.

Speed.

Slate.

Scene 12, take 1.

Action!

I admire you, Dad.

Seriously, I admire you.

Your dedication.

Your passion for helping those kids.

And me?

What about me?

My mom walks out when I'm 12

and my dad looks after other folks' kids.

For sure. I understand.

But you're special,

you're my li'l darlin'.

You're mah life,

the blood that flows in mah veins.

The apple of mah eye!

Cut!

Why'd you cut? It was awesome!

Are you serious?

What?

You're doing a funny accent.

Not funny, an accent.

Why?

It feels much better for the character.

It's awesome, the sense

he comes from another place.

A sense of mystery,

where's he from?

With that accent, Marseille.

Not necessarily.

Not far though. Toulon, maybe.

The point is, he's from Paris.

So far, he's from Paris.

Why'd he go full Manon des Sources?

C'mon, Philippe, it's easy to dub over.

We're wasting time. Trust me.

Let's go again.

Try things.

It's called filmmaking.

Try stuff.

I don't get it.

We're here to try to...

I don't get it. Honestly.

Let's go again.

I suggest ideas,

interesting suggestions, right?

Super interesting, sure.

Let's go.

- Next take.

- Silence on set!

No accent?

How about a Paris accent?

Camera!

Rolling!

Thanks a lot.

Dude, tonight I'll be at the Montana

in feel-no-pain mode.

Gilles Lellouche: Take your hard hat.

It's been closed 6 months for renovation.

Forget the Palace,

that's shut too.

The Roller Derby

closed in the 80s. LMFAO.

Try Bains Douches, take your trunks.

It's a swimming pool now!

Hey.

How you doing?

Good, and you?

Come have a drink.

Can't. I'm with friends.

I think it's a good idea

for us to talk five minutes.

Five minutes.

Know what?

You're funnier than I imagined.

I know we said no looking back,

but you've been a sh*t

since we started shooting.

- You need a drink in you.

- Yeah.

You've not been easy either.

Buy you another

to make up for it?

It'll take more.

This rockin' enough for you?

I'm not rockin' here?

Yes, punish me! Punish me!

Harder, dammit!

Gilles! Oh yes!

F***, Gilles!

Do it!

Guillaume.

We're ready for you on set.

I'll be right there.

- Hey, Guiton!

- Alright, Max?

- What you doing here?

- I needed a drink.

Lemonade shandy!

Come for a real drink.

I'm with Yarol and some chicks.

Move it.

Goodnight.

How do you know Max?

Max? I don't know him.

- No?

- Mathilde knows him.

Right. How do you know Max?

We partied together two weeks ago.

An after.

An after? Was it a good after?

I like a good after.

Do you have a beau?

No man, no attachments. Just sex.

I've had it with guys.

I have fun now.

You sound experienced for your age.

You wanna talk age?

Evening.

Good evening.

Sorry to interrupt, Mr. Canet.

Let me introduce myself. I'm Kev Adams.

I've seen your work, Kev.

That's so cool, I'm touched.

Just to say, I loved you

in the firefighter movie.

You killed it.

- Gendarme.

- Sorry, the gendarme movie.

A super film.

I appreciate you going to see it.

No, I didn't go see it.

I saw the trailer

and it was the business.

Anyways,

I've been a fan of yours like forever.

When I tell my mom I met you,

she'll freak out.

- Right?

- She adores you.

In fact, she was an extra

on one of your movies.

The one where you hit on your wife.

Love Me If You Bare?

- If You Dare.

- Love Me If You Dare Bare.

She was a huge fan,

and she played one of your classmates.

- Alright. How old's your mother?

- 43.

Right, sure.

A wonderful experience.

Mr. Canet, sorry, I have to go.

It was an absolute pleasure to meet you.

- Thank you, Kev.

- If our paths don't cross...

Sorry for borrowing him a few seconds.

Enjoy a long and excellent

end to your career.

Come on,

he didn't have to.

It was nice of him.

Little jerk.

Check this one out.

She has a booty on her!

Me and babes right now...

I'm quite the player! Madness!

You in your glory days.

Yarol, look.

Nono?

Got a pick-me-up for me?

What?

Easy. Sensitive metabolism.

I know.

How about that! It's Amy Winehouse!

You brought Kurt Cobain?

Buy you a drink

to accept your apology?

Malibu and pineapple!

What's with your mug?

It's my mug that's off now?

What about my mug?

What's wrong with my mug?

You got a problem with it?

Don't like the look of it?

Lameass glasses!

Drinks on me!

So? How you doing?

Good. You're sure you're okay?

I came with buddies,

don't know where they are.

Maybe you should go home?

Go home?

I'm pumped. I did coke.

F***, it's hot!

I'm gonna dance. Don't go anywhere.

I won't.

- Evening.

- Evening, gents.

What happened?
