    • Trivia
      The crew was given permission to shoot in the Élysée palace, in the entrance court and one of the salons. Even though Emmanuel Macron, the Président of the French Republic as of 2021, appears in the opening sequence, it's only through the use of archive footage and clever editing.

    You get the idea
    You get the idea what they wanted to do here. To put all different aspects of television (news, reality TV, etc.) in a movie and make a bit fun of it.

    But it's just too long and everything keeps on repeating itself. If this movie would be one hour shorter, it would be much better in my opinion.

    Also: Lea Seydoux cries more in this movie than me at home chopping onions!
