00:00How does it feel to be here tonight as a first-time nominee?
00:03Yeah, it means a lot. I'm a little stressed now, but it's okay.
00:09I will manage the day, and fortunately I have Asia to help me.
00:14No, no, it means a lot, of course, for us.
00:17You know, we are a very small movie in France, and to be just a side, this huge production,
00:23we're like, okay, we are so lucky. It's our year, definitely, since Cannes, yeah.
00:27So, Messi, the dog, had such an amazing award season journey.
00:32We're sad he's not here tonight. How much are you missing him on this red carpet?
00:38Yeah, yeah, of course. He stole everything at the lunch for the Oscars.
00:44So, yeah, of course, it was so interesting to work with him.

01:30just, uh, um, down, uh, descend on the scale, sorry, uh...
01:34He needed to come down the stairs.
01:36And take the ball in the, in the, in the mouse and just look at the girls who were talking.
01:43And this day, we had to put the ball in the glue, to slow the ball down, they needed to drench it in glue.
01:51And it was really, I think we did, uh, 30 takes, I didn't remember exactly, but it was so, yeah, yeah.
