Valérie Bonneton is doubly honored to close the 9th edition of FIFCL: honored at the Awards Ceremony at the Orchestre Philharmonique Royal de Liège, followed by the World Premiere at the Cinéma Palace of her latest film ” Les Boules de Noël “, directed by Alexandra Leclère.
She is one of the most popular actresses in French cinema. Valérie Bonneton first appeared on television in the hit series Fais pas ci, fais pas ça, and has since tried her hand at a wide range of roles, including Ivan Calbérac’s “Venise n’est pas en Italie”, in which she co-stars with Benoît Poelvoorde, and Guillaume Canet’s ” Les Petits Mouchoirs “, which earned her a 2011 César nomination for Best Supporting Actress.
She has also played crazy characters alongside Dany Boon in “ Eyjafjallajökull “, ” La Ch’tite Famille ” and ” Supercondriaque “. More recently, she co-starred with Kad Merad in ” Les Boules de Noël “, Alexandra Leclère’s latest film, which closed the Liège International Comedy Film Festival and will be released in cinemas on November 27, 2024. Valérie Bonneton is undoubtedly one of the great names of French cinema, and a key figure in French comedy on the silver screen.
She will receive an honorary Golden Bull at the festival’s Palmarès ceremony, and a slab bearing her name will also be unveiled on the festival’s Walk of Fame on Sunday November 10 at 8.15pm, on rue Pont d’Avroy, right in the heart of the Cité Ardente!
