Cinema Quiz: 7 Images, 7 French Films to Discover!

It's a new collaboration for Jonathan Cohen and director Quentin Dupieux with the theatrical release last Wednesday of "Le Vertige". This is an opportunity for a quiz on the most mythical of actors with seven films to find.

While one might tend to associate Jonathan Cohen with his famous television characters, such as Serge le Mytho, who first appeared in the short program "Bloqués" and then in the eponymous series, or Marc in "La Flamme" and "Le Flambeau", the actor has also managed to build a remarkable career on the big screen with over forty feature films in fifteen years.

He was seen last Wednesday in theaters, with a new collaboration with Quentin Dupieux, in "Le Vertige", which also features Alain Chabat, Anaïs Demoustier, and Jean-Marie Winling in the cast.

Here are some behind-the-scenes secrets about this film before we offer you a quiz on Jonathan Cohen's filmography.

DID YOU KNOW?

The Work of the Actors
"Le Vertige" was made almost in an artisanal way. The actors were never filmed. They only recorded their dialogues, and then the images were created. "On set, we just did motion capture with an iPhone and a small software. So it’s messy, there are bugs, and that’s what I wanted: something fragile and touching," says Quentin Dupieux.

A Real Film
Quentin Dupieux is the first to be surprised that "Le Vertige" is being released in theaters. When he started making it, he didn’t know if the result would be interesting or suitable for cinema. He was considering releasing it on a platform or Arte, but the film's selection for the Quinzaine des Cinéastes at the Cannes Film Festival disrupted his plans.

A Sequel in the Works?
The director is very eager to make a sequel to "Le Vertige": "If "Le Vertige" does well, I will make a part 2 with a slight improvement in graphics, like video games that evolve from game to game. It would be another "Vertige", with different characters. Maybe more action. I’m not going to make the same joke again!" (Comments collected by Damien Leblanc for Trois Couleurs)
