They smile, they ask, they kiss, but it’s not quite as usual. Friday 25 February, in the aftermath of the invasion triggered by the Russian army in Ukraine, the 47 e ceremony of Caesars was forced to make low profile and to curb his ardor. Apart from a pair of buttocks curiously exposed on stage by a “humorist” probably little by the international news, she even made in the most total austerity, as evidenced by this black-ended ceremonial screen.
Sculptural silhouette
In this table of a great sobriety, four Caesars appear well in sight. If you like unnecessary data, be aware that each statuette, totally hollow, weighs 3.5 kilos and requires fifteen hours of work to the craftsmen of the Babel foundry, in Normandy, responsible for their realization since the second ceremony in 1977. Indeed, the statuettes representing a masculine silhouette wrapped in a film coil designed by Caesar for the inaugural edition, in 1976, made long fire …
Precious Satin
Benefits from this rare concentration of smoking, to remember that if the jackets have lapels adorned with satin (those of Cate Blanchett are particularly imposing), it is not by chance. Historically, this finish even has a very concrete and practical goal: in case of smoking accident, it allows the ash to slide on the jacket without burning the fabric.
Ingenious velvet
Valérie Lemercier A, she, had the good idea to choose a dress carved in a palatal velvet featuring the particularity of not improving smoke odors. Since she did well, the laureate of the best actress’s Caesar for her interpretation in Aline, inspired by Celine Dion’s life, also had the good idea to position himself on this photo so as to hide the view of the Man in skinny jeans located just behind her, in the background. Thank Valérie.
Pencil Mustache
The Mustache of Ron Mael, the founder of the sparks group with his brother, Russell, rewarded for his work on the film Annette, from Leos Carax, was also coming out of the lot. The composer has long had a Hitler Mustache that he ends up shaving for more restraint. Let’s admit it, this pencil mustache is not much more discreet, but it is much less provocative.
