The world of the 7ᵉ art is stamping with impatience… And for good reason, on May 16, 2023 the 76ᵉ edition of the Festival will be launched on the Croisette! France 2 will have the chance to broadcast the opening ceremony presented by Chiara Mastroianni. A stain that is not the least. The actress succeeds Virginie Efira as follows: “I love the Cannes Film Festival, I had the chance to come there very young and to occupy different places. When I was offered this challenge, I was very happy. I was surprised but very happy, entrusted the happy mother of two children to our colleagues from “RTL”, the day before the event.
Out of sight, the artist has worked a lot “his text”. She is visibly ready for the big day even if the stress is starting to point the tip of her nose. “Oh yes, a little bit anyway. I’m not hiding from you that it’s still the biggest international film festival in the world, so I try not to think about that aspect too much”, added the star. To seduce the crowds, Chiara Mastroianni has obviously put the small dishes in the big ones.
“It’s a bit like a sporting event. It’s true that there is a certain solemnity that is necessary for this ceremony and at the same time, what I hope to achieve is to be sufficiently simple and natural. It’s more of a welcome message than a grand speech.”, analyzed the daughter of Marcello Mastroianni, an emblematic figure of cinema who died in 1996. At the same time, Chiara Mastroianni obviously spoke with other media, in particular “France Bleu”. Or even “Brut” who asked her about her mother, the iconic Catherine Deneuve who was honored on the Festival poster. A sublime shot of her that the latter did not know…

“It was not exceptional…”
“My cinephilia, it is to her that I owe it”, revealed Chiara Mastroianni. “When I was a child, she had a collection of VHS tapes. She recorded all the films that were shown. Midnight Cinema, and all that stuff, so I finally discovered cinema through that. The opportunity for her to say more about her parent: “She’s a funny, mischievous woman, and really very far from the image we have of her, which is probably due to this blondness, this beauty etc. […]. But she’s a much simpler woman than that in her life. in its relationship to the world.
Word “curiosity” would be in his eyes perfect to define it. It was at the age of seven that Benjamin Biolay’s ex-girlfriend became aware of his immense notoriety: “I knew she was an actress, of course, […] my father was an actor […] for me, it was something natural, it was not exceptional”, said Chiara Mastroianni, recalling one of her shoots for a prestigious magazine with “Miss Piggy from the Muppet Show”.“Me, I was crazy about the Muppet Show, and I said to myself ‘Ah yes anyway, she poses with Miss Piggy’ so still there is something”.
On the Web, some of his secrets have had the merit of intrigue Internet users. “We must not be many to have had our two parents on an official poster of the Cannes Film Festival”, has also relayed one of the Twittos on the lookout for the slightest scoop. It is said !
