"Response from Ridley Scott to French Media Criticism: Even the French Themselves Don't Love 'Napoleon'"
2023-11-20
Ridley Scott responds to French film critics' lukewarm reception of his latest work "Napoleon," stating that it seems the French themselves have little affection for it. While the UK media praises the film with five stars from The Guardian and four stars from The Times and Empire, French critics express less enthusiasm. Le Figaro suggests renaming the movie to "Barbie and Ken in the Empire," and GQ France finds the American-accented shouts of "Long live France" in the film "awkward, clumsy, and unintentionally comical." When asked by the BBC about the French media's reception, Scott responded, "It seems the French audience doesn't even love their own. I screened it in Paris at the global premiere, and the audience loved it."
