In Marianne, Marilou Berry embodies a judge with atypical methods. For her character that she plays in the series on France 2, the actress was inspired by the Belgian Anne Gruwez. Who is she ? Answer.
He is an explosive and quirky character that Marilou Berry embodies in Marianne. For France 2, the actress has agreed to play the role of an investigating judge who goes into the field of humans and crime scenes. A “tragi-comedy” series, as France Télévisions calls it. “The very essence of Marianne’s job is to do with the dark side of humanity: murder, violence, lies, greed, deception… Her humor allows her to stay at the right distance from things and serves as her electroshock to destabilize, take the opposite course and make its way towards the truth”presents the group.
To camp the judge, Marilou Berry was inspired by a Belgian: Anne Gruwez. This Belgian investigating judge, now 56, has investigated thousands of cases during her career. In 2018, Netflix followed her in a documentary titled Neither judge nor submissive. in front of the cameras, Anne Gruwez has no filter… and especially not his tongue in his pocket. “I feel like I’ve opened the door to more freedom in language: yes, I speak like everyone else and I don’t have a broom up my ass”she tells the Parisianin an article published on Wednesday.
A judge’s book to tell about her career
His experience, Anne Gruwez transcribed it on the white pages. In 2020 she published her book Shut your mouth ! If justice was told to me, where she recounts her experience as an investigating judge in Brussels. In the press, she speaks without taboo, evoking in particular this electric saw accident which forced her to have four fingers amputated.
Marilou Berry has met Anne Gruwez after taking on the role of judge. At Parisianshe tells : “I met her only a few days ago, and not before. It’s always difficult to embody someone who exists, even if here the desire is not to make a biopic or to look like her, but to create a character from scratch.” A program to discover at 9:10 p.m. this Wednesday on France 2.
