Omar Sy\u00a0Star\u00a0of the Untouchable&#8217;s a huge success in France with over 19,000,000 viewers, although a very fine comedian and actor should not (in my humble opinion) have won the award.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/O8K9AZcSQJE\" height=\"315\" width=\"590\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n Cesar Award<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is an extremely important film industry political decision to show consensus and not to show fragmentation by supporting your artists, especially so close to the Oscars. I guess those judging the outcome do not think it is COOL that the Americans gave Dujardin so much credit. I suspect they think he is not sophisticated enough. Well, that is how one adds to the destruction of a vibrant and thriving industry. By not supporting their own artist they cast a very negative shadow on their own home grown talent and industry! France is in the process of killing their Fashion Industry in the same way!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Americans are confident enough in their own industry that they can reward Non-American films without feeling threatened. As a caveat, there is a similar\u00a0problem\u00a0in the Music Industry in France, where what is left of the major labels are just\u00a0remnants\u00a0of what was once a thriving industry. Some of the most successful French acts have left France for greener pastures as have many of the best talent in Fashion, Photography and Creative Internet Development Industries.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As Fr\u00e9d\u00e9rique Renaut, our Fashion Director so aptly stated:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Americans and The Brits are allowing foreign films to compete in the same categories. How interesting to see &#8220;Hugo Cabret&#8221; an American film, talking about the Paris of the 30&#8217;s and &#8220;The Artist&#8221;, a French film,\u00a0talking about\u00a0Hollywood in the 20&#8217;s and both competing for an Oscar. At the Cesar, &#8220;Hugo Cabret&#8221; was able to be nominated once only, in the Best Foreign Film category. So yes the restrictions in France are quite clear indeed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The doors have been opened in the US to a film that everyone rejected when it came to financing it.\u00a0Yes, France will be the only country that did not recompense Jean Dujardin (if he wins the Oscar tomorrow night), as I consider the Prix d&#8217;Interpr\u00e9tation from the International Film Festival of Cannes, an award given by an International Jury, presided by Robert De Niro, thus an International and not French Award.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Good Luck to the Arts and the Artists in France!!!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Vive la France, because they need it now more than ever!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_30798\"
