The Alésien, an 18-year-old actor, is showing, Wednesday October 16, in Gilles Lellouche‘s latest film “L’amour ouf“. A dense and deep role obtained after long casting work and unfailing commitment in a feature film with a five-star cast: Adèle Exarchopoulos, François Civil, Benoît Poelvoorde, Alain Chabat, Élodie Bouchez, Karim Leklou…
For Malik Frikah, doesn’t everything know how to play on instinct? Precisely during a final casting session when he sets up a chair on a table in order to play, seated, the scene of a loud-mouthed show-off. Surely, but not only that.
On display, Wednesday October 16, in the film “L’amour ouf” directed by Gilles Lellouche, the young actor, 18 years old, from Alès, bursts onto the screen at the heart of a galaxy of five-star actors: Adèle Exarchopoulos, François Civil, Benoît Poelvoorde, Alain Chabat, Élodie Bouchez, Karim Leklou…
On screen, Malik Frikah plays Clotaire, an unloved kid who, from the roof of a car (this is the reference to the casting), strives to act tough and meets the gaze of Jacqueline played by Mallory Wanecque, a girl from a good family.
The scene is an anthology and these two teenagers who are separated by everything, with just one look, will see their hearts set ablaze. Before being separated for ten years… A rhythmic film, with crafted dialogue, uniting the cinematic genre of love and that of the gangster.
A contemporary “Romeo and Juliet” offering a dense character both physically and emotionally to the young actor. A role landed after seriously insisting with Elsa Pharaon, casting director and author of the announcement on the networks.
The boy, for six months, pursues his dream and will definitely embrace it during this final casting session which dazzles the director. Gilles Lellouche, guest on Kyan Khojandi’s show Hot Ones insists about the young actor: “He is strong in everything, when he fights, when he cries, when he is intense, when he is gentle, in love or angry.”.
In response, Malik Frikah guest of Mathilde Serrell on France Inter, ensures you have “been 4,000% to defend his character’s point of view […] “ and measure “the chance that Gilles gave me at that moment.” All this with the aim of pursuing his passion “the art of interpretation”.
The amazing love of Gilles Lellouchebased on the novel “Jackie Loves Johnser OK?” by Thompson Neville, Wednesday October 16, on the big screen.
