We all consume content differently. Some on television, others on platforms, still others in cinemas. Like every year, the CNC unveiled in May 2024 the 2023 results of the audiovisual industry. In particular, we learn that “Fiction is the most watched genre on television and 99 of the top 100 audiences for fiction are French. HPI, high intellectual potential (TF1) records the best audience for fiction et Spoiled Rotten (TF1) the best film audience“we learn. As for video, it is subscription-based on-demand services that are driving the sector, and “You is the most viewed series on [plateformes]all nationalities combined”. But what about movies in general?
And the most rebroadcast film on French television since 1957 is…
“The offer of films in the first part of the evening on the channels of the France Télévisions group increases in 2023 to 173 films (154 films in 2022), but at the third lowest level since 2004 (150 films)”we can read in the report. THE “TF1 group is stable in 2023 at 521 broadcasts (523 in 2022)”, “M6 in the first part of the evening represents 474 broadcasts”the score of “Canal+ in the first part of the evening increases from 16 broadcasts to 432”, “118 film broadcasts are scheduled in the first part of the evening on NRJ Group channels”et “Arte devotes three regular slots to cinema in the first part of the evening, totaling 178 broadcasts”. Cinema boxes which therefore allow viewers to have the choice, but also broadcasters to renew themselves. However, it is not uncommon for people to say that programs repeat themselves. How many times did the channels broadcast Tanned people go skiing ? Red ? THE Fantomas ? The Great Mop ? The different aspects of Sissi ? So much so that you probably feel like you’re stumbling upon it every time you skip. And yet, none of these is the most rebroadcast film in the history of French television since 1957. In the ranking, we find The Big Blue, Kirikou and the wild beasts, A quarter to two hours before Christ, or even Asterix and Cleopatrabut the one that sits at the top of the ranking with 70 broadcasts is Delphine1, Yvan 0.
For what Delphine1, Yvan 0 is only broadcast at night?
This film by Dominique Farrugia, released in 1996, tells, like a football match, the crazy romance between Delphine (Julie Gayet) and Yvan (Serge Hazanavicius), followed for a year by sports commentators Thierry Roland and Jean-Michel Larqué. This comedy, in which Gustave Kervern makes his debut in a secondary role, is notable for its atypical genre. A work “everything”tour “very quickly”with “not much money”as revealed BFMTV. “It’s a real thirty-year-old film with everything a thirty-year-old has in their head. I think it’s the most autobiographical film I’ve been able to make in my career with Bis”Dominique Farrugia then confided. Unfortunately, the reviews for this film are negative. However, it will have its chance on free channels, in a somewhat original way, since it was only broadcast once during the day, five in the first part of the evening, two in the second part of the evening and 62 times a night. “I sold my shares in my company to my former partner who sold all the films that were in his company and in our company to TF1. So this film belongs 100% to TF1. It is one of the films that they can watch again at night without any problem, without it costing them 1 euro. […] I’m quite happy because this film which had been somewhat forgotten is coming back.”confides the director to our colleagues.
