Caesar 2018 – 6 things to know about the nominations Gala

Ceremony of Caesar

The revelation of the appointments at the next ceremony of Caesar, which will take place on 2 march next year, has reserved a lot of surprises, of injustice, of crispy.

– two major favorites collide : 120 beats per minute, and goodbye up there ! Each has collected 13 nominations, a record never surpassed, but already reached by Subway, Cyrano de Bergerac, Le fabuleux destin d’amélie Poulain, A prophet, Polisse, or Camille redouble. It should be noted that the young Nahuel Pérez Biscayart is the poster of the two feature-length films , but that it has been selected in the category best hope male for his role in 120 beats per minute.

– an evening rich in emotions for Yvan Attal and Charlotte Gainsbourg : the couple will be present at the salle Pleyel on march 2, and will have the opportunity to vibrate several times since Charlotte Gainsbourg is named in the category of Best actress for her role in The promise of the dawn, and that Yvan Attal, director of the Brio have been in the category for best film, will support Camélia Jordana, selected from the revelations of female, as well as Daniel Auteuil, who will try to win his third César for best actor.

– the Caesar at the time of the iberian. Penélope Cruz will receive a Cesar of honour during the evening. The Academy has decided to celebrate one of the greatest Spanish actresses, which has already toured five times with Pedro Almodovar and has been able to illustrate both in blockbusters and in films.

– the great forgotten: like every year, big names are conspicuous by their absence as were not retained by the Academy. Thus, Rodin does not appear a single time, not even in the category of best actor which could have been Vincent Lindon, nor The lover double of François Ozon, nor The ghosts of Ishmael Arnaud Desplechin. Not Catherine Deneuve (Just between us), Marion Cotillard (in a Rock ‘ n roll) or Nathalie Baye (The guardians), nor Pierre Niney (The promise of the dawn) or Vincent Cassel (Gauguin). Nothing to Valérian and the city of the 1000 planets who would have deserved his place for his costumes and sets.

– the cold then the hot to Doria Tillier :Nicolas Bedos was moved in November that the Academy has not retained Doria Tillier in the category of Revelation for his role in Mr. and Mrs. Adelman, that he has made. It would have been better to be silent and Caesar have not shown anger sincethey have appointed the former miss weather Canal+ in the category of Best actress. Phew !

– the Caesar is brightened. For the first time, without doubt to mitigate the critics, who each year complain that the César awards honour films that have not necessarily been seen by the largest number and ignore comedies, a genre that ultra-popular, the Academy has created a price to the public which primera the film that has made the highest number of admissions in 2017, namely Raid Crazy Dany Boon, and its 4.6 million tickets sold.
