Jules and Marcel / Raimy - Pagnol
According to the correspondence of Jules Muraire and Marcel Pagnol
They were both destined... It is the story that this character of Jean Destin will tell us, through the correspondence between Marcel Pagnol and Jules Raimu. Thanks to their intimate writings, we will relive with them the backstage of a friendship that will have written the most beautiful pages of theatre and cinema of the 20th century. With an imaginative, contemporary and rhythmic staging, we will go through all these places where their lives have been played: on stage of course but especially in the lodges, offices, restaurants, bars, street... It is in 1h30 the evocation of an intimate and professional complicity, giving life to all these moments as intense as discreet but that thanks to their correspondence have come to us with their true words, true expressions, authentic blows of mouth and their declarations of love and respect as sincere and eternal. We discover very concretely the intelligence and malice of Marcel Pagnol, the franchise and good sense of Jules Raimu; and this third character of “Jean” that will make us live so many others: directors of theatres, restaurateurs, accessoiristes...
Through the little story it is the great one that is drawn in filigrane: from the creation of Marius to the theatre at the birth of the speaking cinema, or from the difficulties to turn the Woman of the Boulanger to the second world war that comes to upset everything. We will also see the consecrations: to the Comédie Française for one and to the French Academy for the other.
The history of a life, the history of a duo, the history of the 20th century.
With: Frédéric Achard, Christian Guérin, Lionel Sautet Light and sound creation: Raphaël Maulny Decors and accessories : Thierry Hett / La divin Quincaillerie Costumes : Maïlis Martinsse Régie : Gaspard Bellet/Raphaël Maulny Production : Compagnie Jacques Biagini
