"Oh putain!" It's Jean Dujardin
Tuesday, February 19, 2013 at 12:00PM This just in from our friend Julien in Paris... Jean Dujardin, interviewed on Europe1 this week to promote his new movie Mobius, was asked about his acceptance speech at last year's Oscars and Emmanuelle Riva's nomination in Best Actress this year, the award he'll be presenting on Oscar night.
The actor famously proclaimed "Oh putain!" before launching into his acceptance speech which sort of translates to "Fuck!". In fact, some people believe that it's the only word you need to know to speak French.
Dujardin goes on to confess that he didn't vote (!?!) and congratulates Emmanuelle Riva on her BAFTA win. He promises the interviewer that if Emmanuelle Riva wins on Oscar night he'll shout "Oh, putain - It's Emmanuelle Riva!" when he opens the envelope.
Do you think he'll get the chance?
