10 more days without mom: this very funny detail that you may not have noticed!


Following “10 days without mom”, “10 days again without mom” was released in theaters. On this occasion, here are five things to know about this family comedy with Franck Dubosc.

What is it about ? After his dismissal, Antoine, former HRD of a large DIY brand, chose to stay at home to take care of his 4 children. A new job that he does most of the time alone, because his wife Isabelle is very busy with her new activity as a lawyer.

For two years in the Mercier family, the roles have therefore clearly been reversed and Antoine is beginning to hold out less and less in the face of the energy that his small family demands of him. That’s why 10 days of vacation in the mountains promise to be a godsend for the stay-at-home dad he has become.

Alas, an unexpected affair for Isabelle’s firm falls from the sky. She has no other solution than to let Antoine go skiing alone for 10 days with the 4 children, and above all: without mom!

Various winks

Ludovic Bernard slipped, in 10 days still without mom, a nod to Camping (2006). So we can hear Franck Dubosc say “So, aren’t we expecting Antoine?”referring to the famous sentence of the character of Patrick Chirac in the comedy of Fabien Onteniente (“So, aren’t we expecting Patrick?”). The filmmaker specifies about the other tributes present in the film: The Bronzed it’s the bible of comedy in the mountains! Patrice Leconte and the Splendide, we will never do better.”

“For shining, the idea came about a bit by accident when seeing these twin sisters in the casting. We dressed them like in the movie Kubrick and makes Franck pass in front of the famous room 237. I like to have fun with the codes of cinema which are also known to spectators. These shared references make it possible to unite a room. In the same way, the few glances in front of Franck’s camera, which I find delicious, are intended to establish a bond with the spectator, to link him directly to the film as a form of communion.”

Birth of this sequel

Ludovic Bernard had the idea of ​​making a sequel to 10 days without mom during the filming of this comedy released in February 2020 (and which was a great success in theaters with nearly 1.2 million admissions). With Franck Dubosc, the director quickly asked himself the question of what he was going to be able to tell if there was an extension to this story, and where could he take all this family:

“Of course, the success helped clarify things and we immediately started the writing phase. What we wanted to do was effectively reverse the roles. Antoine fired from his job finds himself a housewife so that Isabelle took over a full-time activity as a lawyer and created her company: it was this imbalance that interested us, we wanted to see how it took us into comedy.

2 years later…

10 Days Without Mom again takes place two years after 10 Days Without Mom. In the meantime, the young actors of the first film have changed a bit… “I’m lucky that Mathieu Oullion have sons who are roughly the age of the characters. But I also took the time to see the actors together several times, to listen to what they could say to each other, the little nonsense they could talk about.

“They were happy to meet again and their complicity and their solidarity impressed me a lot. We were inspired a lot by them. Swann And Violet have matured, Illan is always twirling and Evan is even more touching than it was in the first film. His role is also more important and the text to learn did not scare him. This child is very gifted.recalls Ludovic Bernard.

Direction Courchevel!

Ludovic Bernard and his team shot in Courchevel, a famous Savoyard winter sports resort. The director remembers: “Shooting in the mountains is not particularly complicated, especially since we all live in the same place. The only difficulty to manage was the weather, which we had to scrutinize every day. We had to juggle with its constraints, modify the days of filming, because I wanted sunshine and blue skies on the screen, the ideal and sublime conditions for a stay in the mountains.”

Reverse roles

In this sequel, Antoine never manages to say that he is unemployed. The character is indeed subjected to the social pressure that those who have lost their jobs must face. Ludovic Bernard entrusts : “To avoid this feeling of downgrading he actually never says that he is unemployed but that he telecommutes, a notion which has become a source of jokes – “more in front of the TV than work” – and which we have fun.

“Having a job is also a reason for satisfaction, it’s good for the ego. When you have to do without, I talk about it because I love my job and I thrive in it, it’s obviously difficult Antoine no longer has these feelings. He really wants to find them again but we can see that he wants to take revenge. Our point lies in the fact that we want to see Antoine undergo but that we also want that ‘he fights, let him come back positive.”
