emiliedequenne portraits
@filmfestivalgr 2018
It was with great sadness that I learned that Emilie is no longer with usβ¦
An excellent actress, a beautiful girl with a lot of promise still in the 7th Artβ¦Only 43 years old!
What a shame, what a shameβ¦
She was discovered in 1999 by the drama Rosetta, directed by the Dardenne brothers, which gave her the award for best actress, while the feature film received the Palme d'Or
She starred in the major production Brotherhood of the Wolf (2001), then shared the bill in the comedy A Housekeeper (2002) with Jean-Pierre Bacri.
In the following years, she returned to social issues as the protagonist of the social dramas The Girl on the RER (2009), To Lose Her Reason (2012), Not Her Type (2014), Chez Nous and Men on Fire (2017).
She received the CΓ©sar Award for Best Supporting Actress in 2021 for her role in Les Choses qu'on dit, les Choses qu'on fait, after four nominations in the categories of Most Promising Actress, Best Actress and Best Actress.
I realized her portraits at the Thessaloniki Film Festival. With the theme ''Give me a kiss''
Of course we had met at Cannes⦠What a good actress!
We were in Thessaloniki every day and when she left we promised to meet again in Cannesβ¦ A promise that remained unfulfilled, since death stops real timeβ¦ Only the imaginary remains to remind usβ¦
Bon voyage Emilie, soon and we'll talk about itβ¦
