Above all, Laurent Delahousse likes to offer interviews who think outside the box. The famous presenter often seeks to establish a close relationship with his guests so that they speak in more depth. During his Sunday show, he received Vincent Lindon. The actor was invited to a completely different setting from the usual 8 p.m. set on France 2.
He was therefore present opposite Laurent Delahousse in the intimate setting of a Parisian bistro. Over a glass of red wine, the two men discussed numerous subjects, including the life and career of Vincent Lindon. It is however a slippery slope that the actor refused to take to the great dismay of the journalist.
Vincent Lindon and his relationship with politicians
Vincent Lindon is a bon vivant, a great lover of good meals and good wines. At 65 years old, he is not the man to be fooled by questions that are a little too intrusive from a journalist. Despite the intimate setting as an invitation to confide, Vincent Lindon did not let himself be coaxed when the presenter tried to take him away on the ground of his political opinions.
“You have this dimension of actor, through your choices, sometimes through your speeches, engaged politically. Do you like politicians? » Laurent Delahousse tried this. “I loved them, and I admired them. In the past » the actor then replied. A response that did not fully satisfy the presenter who wanted to know more with names. He was finally given a dismissal. “No, we’re not going to start. I don't want to go into details at all. That doesn't interest me at all. I am very frank. There, I have to put four brains into action to know what I can say and what not to say. It's going to tire me out and I don't want to ».
Laurent Delahousse is insistent
Far from being discouraged by this very clear response, Laurent Delahousse, as a good journalist, will try to pull the worms out of his guest's nose. He will give him a long list of names of politicians. From Descartes to Bayrou, via Chirac or Hollande, in the hope of provoking a reaction in Vincent Lindon. But the latter as an experienced man not going to let yourself be fooled.
-“There, I recognize the fantastic journalist, who, through a sentence where he tells him namesmanages to wait for a response from the person opposite. […] But there, that doesn’t make you want it.” Seeing that he will get nothing out of his guest, the journalist will finally decide to move on. He will finally pay the bill before inviting Vincent Lindon to go to the Pitié Salpêtrière hospital, a center of medicine in France. The actor has always dreamed of being a doctor.
