This short is a tribute to famous French actress Danielle Darrieux ,who died a few days ago ,age 100, after an extraordinary career,probably the longest (1931-2010) in the French cinema .
A director plans an (imaginary) movie with the famous actress ;she suggests Cecile De France as her co-star ;Unfortunately, she is not free ;but her great-grand-son ,Julien, would do nicely in the part of her grand-son.
A voice shouts "action" ,but we do not see Darrieux ; the eight-minute film lets us in her house in the country with many photographs of her films hanging on the walls.On the other hand, her voice over is heard during the whole film.
A farewell to a Grande Dame.
