You have to be called Paul Verhoeven to dare, but it’s a bright idea to entrust the role of sister Benedetta at
Virginie efira. The Belgian actress is not only very convincing in the yet not easy role of lesbian nun who also thinks herself for the woman of God.
#VirginiaEfira is at @Festival_Cannes for the official screening of #Benedetta, in Competition this year.

None other than she talks about it as well as she did this morning in 20 minutes : “I needed the character to be as sincere as possible, tells Virginie Efira, to be tough, but touching, especially in her discovery of desire, sex and pleasure that she will use as weapons in a world where suffering and hatred of the body are magnified. Once she has cum, she no longer feels farting! She feels the wife of Jesus to the point of ending up thinking that she is God… She reminds me of certain politicians convinced that they will always benefit from impunity and who are caught up in business. Once she touches power, she can’t let go. She uses her faith to submit people to her will. “
She also confided “without pride” to 20 minutes to have allowed himself a little fitness cure before facing the gaze of the camera in his many sex scenes. Happy readers who can find out Benedetta now: the film is released in theaters today.
Matt Damon and Camille Cottin shine on the Croisette
Matt Damon forms with Camille Cottin a couple as ideal as they are radiant to climb the stairs for Stillwater, out of competition. “It was deeply moving to feel everyone vibrate in unison in front of the film in the legendary hall of the Palais des Festivals,” he confided to our special correspondent. It’s something else than being in front of my TV! “
The American actor impresses as a father who arrives in Marseille when his daughter is imprisoned for a murder she may not have committed. His meeting with Camille Cottin will be decisive and his love at first sight for the Marseille city very real. “I fell in love with Marseille. This city has an incredible energy that has helped me compose my character, ”says Matt Damon.
Blow of heart for a Japanese historical fact
The little pearl of the day is Onoda, in the Un certain regard section. Almost three hours of snorkeling in the Philippine jungle to retrace the thirty years that have passed, for real, a Japanese officer who never believed that the war was over since his superiors had not returned to seek him.
