This music is not playing for anyone, on France 4 at 9 pm
In a port city in northern France, Jeff (François Damiens), a local scoundrel, is married to Katia (Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi), but falls for Roxane (Constance Rousseau), a cashier. He declares his love for her through his henchmen Neptune (Ramzy Bedia), Poussin (Bouli Lanners), and Jesus (JoeyStarr), who are both tough and clumsy. After a series of increasingly improbable events, they find themselves in hilariously absurd situations.
For his 7th film, Samuel Benchetrit brought together a 5-star cast with François Damiens, Ramzy Bedia, Vanessa Paradis, Gustave Kervern, JoeyStarr, Bouli Lanners, Vincent Macaigne, and Valeria Bruni-Tedeschi, to name a few. They all traveled to northern France to shoot this deliciously absurd comedy. It was partly filmed in Dunkirk in the Hauts-de-France region, and in the surrounding areas, including the town of Bray-Dunes. Duration: 1h50
Charles I of England: from the throne to the scaffold, on Arte at 8:55 pm
In 1625, a young 25-year-old monarch ascended to the throne of England, Charles I, the second son of James VI Stuart. An absolutist in conflict with the members of Parliament, he suffered from a bad reputation among the population, who believed he was manipulated by his favorite, George Villiers. Charles I of England: From the throne to the scaffold decrypts the reasons for his unpopularity, starting with disastrous decisions. He lost a war against Spain, alienated the French monarchy, and eventually dismissed Parliament, beginning a period known as tyranny, as described by several historians and specialists. This documentary about the beheaded king, sentenced to death in 1649, is followed by a second one titled Marie and Elizabeth Tudor: sisters, rivals, and queens, which explores the five years of Mary Tudor’s reign, marked by significant persecution of Protestants and her strained relationship with her father, Henry VIII. Duration: 1h30 and 55 min
