Alexandra Lamy dreaded the filming of the comedy “Return to my mother”, impressed to give the reply to Josiane Balasko.
Released in theaters in 2016, the comedy Back to my mother, which tells the eventful cohabitation between a 40-year-old woman and her mother, sees Alexandra Lamy give the reply to Josiane Balasko for the first time. And the least we can say is that she was impressed…
Long before Return to my mother, Alexandra Lamy was a fan of Josiane Balasko, and vice versa. “Immediately, we recognized each other, because we come from the same school”declared Lamy at the microphone of AlloCiné during the promotion of the film. “We both come from the school of comedy, a school with rhythm. Right away, it ‘matched’ between us, it was great.”
However, also “owl” was their collaboration, it was not without a certain fear for Alexandra Lamy. “I was happy to work with Josiane, it was almost a dream”she told us in an interview to discover in full in the player above. “But suddenly, I was a little apprehensive. I asked the director Eric Lavaine “So, Josiane, do you think she’s going to be…” And he said to me, “No, you’ll see, she’s great!”
“If I had known that, I would have made a joke of you, I would have made the face on your first day”, then replies Josiane Balasko, hilarious. A nice moment of complicity between a “mother” and her “daughter” to be found in our video player, and a result on the screen to discover this evening on TF1.
