Isabelle Huppert and Sandrine Kiberlain in a satirical duel in All About Corinne

A French corporate comedy where Huppert plays an anonymous extra opposite Kiberlain playing herself in the satire All About Corinne.

Isabelle Huppert plays an anonymous extra alongside Sandrine Kiberlain, who appears as herself, in the satire of the French film industry All About Corinne. The film, directed by Marc Fitoussi, relies on the contrast between a prestigious actress reduced to an extra role and a star who plays herself as a “someone” from the industry. The first gag, Huppert’s staging as an indefinite article, opens a series of jokes about status and recognition. The performances, perceived as devoid of vanity, give weight to what remains a light but well-executed exercise. according to Variety
