Frank Dubosky: Patrick Chirac from Camping, that’s not him!

Camping 4, it’s not tomorrow! Actor, comedian, author and director Frank Dubosky, who is currently in full promotion for his next feature film ‘Rumba la vie’, is back JDD About his original intentions with the camping films that became a landmark franchise in French cinema.

The translator of Patrick Chirac refers to his adolescence and first writings, he began to add humor to broaden the audience, but at the beginning they were seduced by emotions, which are more like his personality:

When I worked on my own camp, which was called “July 14 – August 15”, I emphasized the social aspect. Then, with Fabien Onteniente, we took it more towards comedy. If we had shot my version, of course I would have touched fewer people, the film would have been less family friendly.

However, the actor seems to indicate that the 100% comic atmosphere of the camping films is behind him, now rekindling this saga, which lasted almost a decade as “The Nail”:

I will not deny this nail a little more in my career… Oh, I don’t want to be vulgar, it would be too much. When I signed everyone, my relatives said: “Ah, well, it’s you!”. My wife can’t stand it when I make some serious jokes.

With each upright, his first staging, Frank Dubosk really showed a more sensitive side of his acting and responded to the impeccable Alexandra Lam register, which was closer to dramatic comedy.

The comedian returns with a film in the same genre, Rumba la vie, the story of a father whose health is weakened by a heart attack, who tries to connect with the daughter he abandoned twenty years ago. It’s out in theaters this Wednesday.

Frank Dubosk has already finished writing the next piece and will be in several films over the next couple of years, but there will be no Camping 4 on the horizon. And given his recent remarks, it’s not for tomorrow either!
