This Friday, September 29, Catherine Deneuve answered a few questions from our colleagues in RTL’s La matinale. During this interview, the journalist asked her if she regretted the 1990s highlighted in the film Bernadette. “No ! I have no regrets about the past or what I experienced… I’m happy.”, she first replied.

It’s true that it’s very different… We were much freer. Today, it’s taking on proportions all the same… The excesses are terrifying!”she said, and continued: “It’s an evolution, that’s how it is!

If Catherine Deneuve fights so much for the regularization of platforms, she explained that she does not use them at all: “No no ! And I’m not on the internet and I don’t have any networks.
