Melvil Poupaud had a Caesarized actress… as a nanny!

Melvil Poupaud is in full promotion of the film The Young Lovers, released on February 2. In this fiction by Carine Tardieu, he plays a 45-year-old man falling on his first love, played by Fanny Ardant, fifteen years after their first meeting. If fiction did not exceed reality for the two actors, Melvil Poupaud did not hide all the admiration he had for his partner: “Our great complicity was nurtured during the shooting. I feel like we recognized each other. I admire him even more. I am fascinated by the grace she exudes, by her very original spirit. Fanny is not smooth, she has very clear-cut ideas. His intransigence reminds me of Jeanne Moreau. You don’t meet many women with so much character, who at the same time love seduction“, he told the Women’s Journal. What he had not yet said was that in reality, Melvil Poupaud had already had a similar encounter much earlier. In his early years, the little boy he was, like most children, had nannies. And one of them works in the same field as him!

In As an aside this Thursday, February 10, Melvil Poupaud revealed that a very great actress had kept it “for one or two evening(s)“. This star is none other than Isabelle Adjani: “It’s because my mother knew her very young and to do her a favor, she had looked after us when we were children with my brother. It’s a memory you won’t forget!” At the time, Melvil Poupaud already sensed the full potential of this somewhat special babysitter: “She wasn’t that well known. And then, such a beauty we can only remember, it was obvious that she was going to become what she became“.

Melvil Poupaud does not specify if Isabelle Adjani inspired his career choice but it could be! In 50 years of career, the actress has played for the greatest: François Truffaut, André Téchiné, Claude Miller, Patrice Chéreau and François Ozon soon. She also has no less than five Césars that she won for Possession, The Murderous Summer, Camille Claudel, Queen Margot and Skirt Day. A big track record that the 49-year-old actor must secretly hope to be able to match one day.
