Trivia To make the actors look like the people they're playing, some sacrifices had to be made: * actress Elsa Zylberstein took on 18 pounds for the role, and spent weeks trying to imitate Simone Veil's speech pattern; * actress Rebecca Marder listened to Veil's speeches two hours a day during 5-6 months and watched a lot of archive footage, and had a lot of makeup and prosthetics on her nose, cheeks and eyebrow arches; * actor Olivier Gourmet had to endure five hours of makeup every morning before shooting.
