“A family resemblance”
The film of several generations: “The Spanish Inn”
Romain Duris and Audrey Tautou
Bac Films – Mate – What Moves Me Motion Pictures
The Erasmus university exchange program, the energy of youth and the horizon opened by intra-European meetings, all of this worked very well together in this cult comedy. A huge success in theaters, it also influenced student morals, and became a manual of etiquette for many of its fans!
At 9:05 p.m. on Chérie 25. Film by Cédric Klapisch (France / Spain, 2002). 115 mins. With Romain Duris and Judith Godrèche. Rebroadcast.

“The Spanish Inn”
Funny stand-up: “Paul Mirabel: Zebra”
Swiss comedian Paul Mirabel has established himself in the stand-up landscape since 2018 when he was the big winner of the Campus Comedy Tour. Olympia Production
His offbeat tone made him a real curiosity of the one-on-one, then a darling of the stage: this show recorded at the Théâtre Sébastopol, in Lille, is an opportunity to discover the tasty comic Paul Mirabel, or to taste even more his falsely subdued humor. Beneath an astonishing masculine gentleness, comic daring.
At 9:20 p.m. on C8. Show by and with Paul Mirabel. 80 mins. Rebroadcast.
