On the poster of Please excuse us for the inconvenience caused, the release of which is scheduled for August 9, Elsa Zylberstein granted an interview to our colleagues from Télé Loisirs. The opportunity for the actress to push a rant about the snobbery which was the subject of her film dedicated to Simone Veil.
When asked about how she portrayed Simone Veil on the big screen, Elsa Zylberstein seems to have given a lot of herself. “It was a crazy job of embodiment. I was her, every second, every breath”, entrusted the 54-year-old actress to the microphone of Anne Elisabeth Lemoine on the set of It’s up to you. In order to embody this emblematic historical personality, the actress has indeed submitted to an important work of incarnation for which she did not hesitate to take ten kilos.
A risk-taking that seems to have seduced the public since Simone, the trip of the century, directed by Olivier Dahan, was the French film in live action which had the biggest success in theaters of the year 2022. The film recorded no less than 2.5 million entries on the counter, underlining the warm reception of the feature film by the public. Despite everything, Elsa Zylberstein does not seem to have touched the heart of the members of the César jury for her interpretation of Simone Veil.

While Virginie Eifira won the César de la Best Actress for his role in See Paris againElsa Zylberstein was not among the nominees.
A lack of love that she still has trouble swallowing, as she confides to Entertainment TV. “It really saddened me, I didn’t understand”she told our colleagues before adding: “Since I was little, I’ve always said to myself that if the Césars should reward an actress, it’s for this type of role. With all the work I’ve done! The Césars are the icing on the cake… who comes or doesn’t come”. The actress explains that she was disappointed not to feel the support of French cinema professionals during this ceremony.
