Family Weekend: Eric Judor in a completely different role
It is difficult to find good comedies despite a substantial offer in the world of streaming platforms. Disney + bets on sure values of comedy with the director PEF and the one who is a real troublemaker for a few years thanks to productions like Platane, Eric Judor. We were present at the conference given by some members of the film crew. Here are some of PEF's comments on this project. "In a series, you have an obligation to make people laugh quickly. The Family Weekend project is a unique experience. Everything was done in a supercharged atmosphere. Eric has created a family with his daughters." A more relaxed shoot than Canadian shoots because of the presence of children since the days were shorter. They were able to have more time to play the sequences, reinvent and make the children laugh. Eric Judor (PLATANE, PROBLEMOS, LA TOUR MONTPARNASSE INFERNALE) plays the role of Fred, the father of a completely reworked tribe. An eternal jokester, he strives to be up to the task for 15-year-old Clara (Liona Bordonaro), 12-year-old Victoire (Midie Dreyfus) and 9-year-old Romy (Roxane Barazzuol). A very different role for Eric. A great learning for him since he had to learn to make people laugh with a character different from his usual standards. Plane tree enthusiasts will have the pleasure of seeing him with Chafid, his lifelong friend.
