After a marathon of 150 advances, Bodin’s, Alias Vincent Dubois and the French Jean-Christian, reveal their new comedy on Wednesday, March 19, their new comedy, their new comedy, their new comedy, Bodin turns back. After the box of Bodin’s in Thailand (1.6 million admissions in 2021), this unprecedented adventure involves them from the Agricultural Fair in Morocco.
Bodin turns back It will be a more political movie than Bodin’s in Thailandthat already addressed the suicide of the farmers. Always done by Frédéric ForestierThis fourth feature film of the Indre-Et-Loire duo evokes the desertification of the villages and their forced industrialization.
When Maria Bodin and her son Christian learn that an industrial cheese plant is preparing to settle in her small town, they are ready to do anything to defend their craft cheese dairy. Blackmail, fight, Chase … Bodin retires to nothing to have this project to the condom and save its values.
“We wanted to put in this movie an important message that was close to our hearts: talk about the desertification of the field, from industrialization. We believe that people are very sensitive to this issue,” explains BFMTV Vincent Dubois, who embodies Mary, the revisable mother.
“We are talking about our experiences”
The subject won immediately after Bodin’s in ThailandUnderline French Jean-Christian. “We both lived in small villages. I still live in the town where I was born. In their forty years, I saw the desert people: more stores and doctors. The schools close.”
“We like to start from a slightly dramatic and deep background and film it in comedy with our characters. We like to trust something quite moving that speaks to people,” continues the humorist. But with his usual friend, “I wasn’t aware of doing something political.”
“We are talking about our experiences, our trips,” says Vincent Dubois. “Our friends of the school, for the most part, are farmers, breeders, peasants. We want to talk about them. We see those who are fighting. With characters like Bodin’s, it would be a shame (not talking about them).”
After the success of his previous adventure, the fourth greatest success in French cinema in 2021 behind Kaamelott, The Tuche 4 AND Northern tankBodin feels comforted. “Success We wanted to redo one, “Confirms Vincent Dubois.”
From Brad Pitt to Maria Bodin
The media are on the screen. The film offers more persecutions, including one, memorable, in a dromedary. “We did almost all the waterfalls ourselves! We were holding,” he insists on Vincent Dubois. “It was exhausting. I underestimated my physical preparation,” says French Jean-Christian.
“This persecution owes a lot to Frédéric Forestier, our director, because it became a specialist in this type of scenes. The ball Where there is a great persecution with the great concorde wheel. He is acute, he knows how to direct these sequences, “exclaims Vincent Dubois.
It is curious, the dromedary used in the film had previously been traveled by Brad Pitt in another production. “The real one, not the false we have spoken recently!”, Haves Jean-Christian French. “We film in Merzouga, at the doors of the Sahara, in Morocco, where there is a lot of filming of very large American productions. It is difficult to move from Brad Pitt to Maria Bodin.”
“The public will give prayer”
However, Maria Bodin is a star. Since the success of his previous film, The Press, who had rejected them in 2021, has now been there. “We have the impression that this time, the media come more easily,” says Vincent Dubois. “But that does not mean that everything is done. It is the public who will give prayer.”
A hearing located mainly in the provinces. In the 1.6 million tickets Bodin’s in ThailandOnly 30,473 had been counted in Paris. “We were thrown when the rooms are reopening. Not all Parisian operators wanted to risk our film. The film was more distributed in the provinces than in Paris. This time, there will be many more rooms in Paris,” promises a Jean-Christian Fraisco.
30 years of career
As the departure approaches, a question arises: what will be the next destination in the Bodin cinema? “This is not what we are looking for,” says Vincent Dubois. “It’s not Martine on the beach! We are not looking for where we are going to bring them on vacation. We are looking for what we are going to tell as a story.”
The rest of the Bodin, for the moment, will take place on stage. This summer, your outdoor show, The Nature Bodinwill celebrate its twentieth anniversary. From September to December, they will defend him during a zenith tour to celebrate 30 years of career. “We couldn’t see ourselves not being on stage for our 30th birthday.”
Will we see you one day to play in other films than those of Bodin? “Of course. Of course. This is more time we are missing. The bodies take a long time. But it is true that we are above all the actors,” says French Jean-Christian. And Vincent Dubois concluded: “The true stars are those of Bodin, we are not us.”
