On the poster for the film Les jeunes amants, Fanny Ardant confides in her vision of love and passion, but also about deception by the loved one, which she has unfortunately already experienced…
On February 2, 2022, Fanny Ardant is back in theaters with the movie The young lovers. In this feature film directed by Carine Tardieu, the actress replies to Melvil Poupaud or Cecile of France. Here she slips into the skin of Shauna, a free and independent 70-year-old woman who has abandoned her love life. However, when she crosses paths with Pierre, a 45-year-old man, she is troubled. To her surprise, he is also attracted to her, whom he considers desirable and easy to love… Except that Pierre is already married and a father.
In the columns of Madame Figaro magazine, Fanny Ardant talks about his perception of love as part of the promotion of this project. The one who once shared the life of François Truffaut defines what passion represents for her: “It’s the brilliance, the urgency, the absolute necessity. It is an impulse, like the mystical life, from which no one, and especially not reason, can turn you away. But if I meet a couple who’ve loved each other since day one, with no arrangement, so I kneel before them.”

But experience is useless. You start over. There is a sentence in One does not trifle with love (Alfred de Musset, editor’s note): ‘I suffered, but I loved. It was I who lived…’ (…) And this phrase from Pasolini that I really like: ‘You have to burn to arrive consumed at the last fire’.“ An eternal and great romantic…
