Cesar Awards Nominations: Thomas Cailley’s ‘The Animal Kingdom,’ Justine Triet’s Oscar-Nominated ‘Anatomy of a Fall’ Lead the Way

Thomas Cailley’s supernatural drama “The Animal Kingdom” and Justine Triet’s Palme d’Or winner “Anatomy of a Fall” are leading the race at the 49th Cesar Awards with 12 and 11 nominations, respectively.

Triet’s movie, which just garnered an impressive five Oscar nominations, and “The Animal Kingdom,” which opened at Cannes’ Un Certain Regard and won a prize, will vie for top Cesar awards including best director and film.

“The Animal Kingdom” is an ambitious film that marks a departure from France’s cinema tradition of social realism. It’s both a creature-filled dystopia and a father-and-son drama (played by Romain Duris and Paul Kircher, both nominated for Cesar Awards), weaving some contemporary concerns over the future of mankind. It’s produced by Pierre Guyard at Nord Ouest Films and co-produced by Artemis.

“Anatomy of a Fall,” meanwhile stars Sandra Hüller — the German actor nominated for Cesar, Oscar and BAFTA awards — as a novelist who is put on trial following the mysterious death of her husband at their remote chalet. The movie, which already won a pair of Golden Globes, is produced by Marie-Ange Lucianiat Les Films de Pierre and David Thion at Les Films Pelleas.

The other major Cesar contenders this year are Jeanne Herry’s “All Your Faces,” produced by Hugo Selignac’s Chi-Fou-Mi and Alain Attal’s Les Films du Tresor, and Cédric Khan’s Cannes Directors’ Fortnight opener “The Goldman Case,” produced by Benjamin Elalouf at MoonshakerFilms. “The Goldman Case,” based on the 1976 trial of radical criminal Pierre Goldman, feels timely as it deals with antisemitism, racial discrimination and flaws in the judicial system. Arthur Harari, the actor-filmmaker who co-wrote “Anatomy of a Fall” with Triet (his partner), also stars in “The Goldman Case” and is nominated for his supporting role in the film.

“All Your Faces,” which also struck a chord among Cesar Academy members, revolves around perpetrators and victims of offenses who confront each other under a restorative justice plan. Four of the five slots in the best supporting female category went to “All Your faces” actresses: Adele Exarchopoulos (“Blue Is the Warmest Color”), Leila Bekhti (“La Source”), Miou-Miou (“The Science of Sleep”) and Elodie Bouchez (“Simone: Woman of theCentury”).

As previously announced, “Oppenheimer” director Christopher Nolan, alongside Agnes Jaoui, a beloved French actor, screenwriter and filmmaker, will receive honorary Cesar Awards during the upcoming ceremony, which will be held at Olympia Concert Hall on Feb. 23.
