Cinema: 'Little Miss sunshine' wins at the Césars

'Little Miss Sunshine', low budget first film by Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris, won another award, this time for best foreign film, at the French Césars ceremony. Ignored by the Goldens Globes, the film had obtained by surprise, end of January, the award for best picture of the American producers (PGA), also after having received the prize for best 'Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture' from the actors syndicate (SAG). I wonder how it will be treated by the Oscars later today, but it would be expecting too much, I guess, that it gets the best film award…

In France, the César for best actor went to François Cluzet in 'Ne le dis à personne', for best actress to Marina Hands in 'Lady Chatterley' (which got 4 Césars!) – and which is coming out soon in Belgium. Guillaume Canet won the award for best director with 'Ne le dis à personne' and 'Lady Chatterley' was crowned as best film (directed by Pascale Ferran). 'Indigènes' won the best original screenplay prize (by Olivier Lorelle and Rachid Bouchareb) and 'Lady Chatterley' won again for best adaptation.

Now it’s just waiting for the Oscars…
