These two should never have met… and yet, it gives improbable and sometimes iconic duos of cinema. AlloCiné tests you on some of these successful film tandems. Will you do a no-fault on their titles?
It’s an indestructible recipe for cinema, the films of improbable duos. There are, for example, the essential comedies of Francis Veber. The screenwriter and director imagined a certain number of them, which are still iconic today, like Les Compères, which still makes the big time on the small screen. We no longer count the tandems of cops for multi-broadcast police comedies on TV either…
AlloCiné has concocted a quiz for you – accessible to all – around some improbable and iconic film duos! Try the no-fault!
Recently at the cinema, Artus and Gérard Lanvin played one of these improbable duos, in the comedy I love what you do. As Gérard Lanvin prepares to shoot one of the most important films of his career in the south of France, his path crosses that of Momo Zapareto… to his greatest regret. Because Momo is a fan, very fan, too fan! For Gérard, the nightmare has only just begun…
I love what you do was previewed out of competition at Alpe d’Huez. The comedy with efficient mechanics, and based on a funny and endearing tandem, multiplies the winks to the world of cinema, taking us behind the scenes of the life of an actor, in this case that of Gérard Lanvin, which was of course fictionalized for the purposes of the screenplay.
Gérard Lanvin was recently in Envole-moi by Christophe Barratier, released in May 2021, then we could hear his voice thanks to the character of Clay Calloway in the successful animated film Tous en scène 2, and he is expected soon in the credits of the first French series produced on AppleTV+, Liaison, with Vincent Cassel and Eva Green. As for Artus, he was recently featured in Liar by Olivier Baroux, Si on chantait and Pourris gâtés, as well as the series Le Bureau des legendes on CANAL+.
I love what you are doing is Philippe Guillard’s fourth feature film, after Le fils à Jo (2011), We wanted to break everything (2015), and Papi Sitter (2020). Philippe Guillard is a former rugby union player, who has since become a journalist, screenwriter, director and writer. His latest film will be released on DVD and VOD next September.
