If I tell you “Blonde wig, yellow shirt, black pants, surfboard, f**k face”who are you thinking about Brice from Nice! Eleven years ago, this timeless spectacle, seen in Jean Dujardin’s sketch, first came to the cinema.
Faced with the success of this comedy, which became a reference for an entire generation of adults and children (more than four million box office releases), James Huth (to whom we owe “Happiness never happens alone”, “New Toy” or “Lucky Luke”. …) decided to continue
its title? Brice 3 (because number 2 is broken)! Hitting theaters eleven years after the first film, this sequel follows the adventures of a defeated surfer (Jean Dujardin). The world has changed, but not him. When her best friend Marius (Clovis Kornilak) calls her for help, she embarks on an epic journey to the other side of the planet…
next to Jean Dujardin and Clovis CornillacWe find the actors Bruno Salomon, still in the role of Igor d’Hossegor, but also Alban Lenoir (Les Crevettes pailletées), Jean-Michel Lahm (Alphonse Presidente), Louis-Do de Lenquesaing (Engrenages) or even the comedian. Noel Perna.
Bris de Nice follows in Bodhi’s footsteps…
And what would a Bris de Nice comedy be without his delicious references to Patrick Swayze from Point Break? Because if this blonde character has developed a passion for board sports, it’s because she’s a Bodhi fan in Kathryn Bigelow’s movie.
Indeed, in the first Bris de Nice, we find the eternal thirty-year-old watching this iconic film over and over and, like his idol, waiting to surf “his” wave in Nice. Nothing has changed in the second movie, he still worships Bodhi.
“The idea was exactly that he is not changing, I am changed, with my 44-year-old body. Brice continues to live in a closed circle, in his yellow bubble, willing the waves, his desire. “The break-counterbreak” and its highly codified life”– the actor confided Jean Dujardin.
And the least we can say is that this sequel once again created a sensation, with more than 1.9 million curious theaters. Moreover, this saga is one of the favorite films of Kelly Slater, the famous American surfer with eleven world championship titles.
Another good news is that this comedy respects Patrick Swayze from Point Break There may be a third sequel. Jean Dujardin confided that he already had ideas in his head. Continue, then!
