Broadcast on Sunday evening on France 2, the comedy Chamboultout features José Garcia as a man who has become blind, whose disarmingly honest nature leads him to speak aloud what he thinks. This particular role required specific preparation for the actor to portray the blind character as accurately as possible. "I like it when it's complicated," José Garcia once told colleagues from Europe 1. "When you play a blind person, people spend their time looking at your eyes to see how you will fall into the trap. It's a big responsibility because the film immediately feels the impact of it." How to play a blind person? "Without filter and with quite funny phrases, you can quickly fall into a kind of actor's exaggeration while your colleagues play at a metronome pace," the actor explained, portraying a completely unpredictable character. José Garcia then revealed his small technique to be very credible in this difficult role. "You project the image of a red pen. At the moment you have visualized the red pen, your gaze has completely disappeared. You look at this red pen constantly and you continue to act, to move, to do everything that needs to be done." He repeated the method: "You project the image of a red pen. At the moment you have visualized the red pen, your gaze has completely disappeared." José Garcia also explained that he stayed in his bubble, apart from the other actors. "I couldn't get involved in their antics. When you're in a comedy, especially when you're a group of friends, you spend your time joking around." "If I listened to the jokes, I completely lost my concentration. Imagine the story of the red pen all day long! By the end of the day, you're exhausted. In the evening, I didn't even turn on the light, I went straight to bed!" A brief reminder of the plot of Chamboultout: Following a terrible accident, Béatrice sees her husband Frédéric become blind. Despite this tragedy, she decides to transform this trial into a story full of life and humor, which she recounts in a book. But when Frédéric discovers the manuscript, he realizes that his wife has written much more than intended, including certain very personal details about their circle. Around them, the long-time friends of the couple discover that they too have been largely used in the narrative. And since Frédéric can no longer see anything, he has no filter anymore: he now says everything he thinks, without worrying about the consequences. Between embarrassing truths, old grudges, and secrets carefully hidden, the group quickly falls apart. What was supposed to be a simple evening among friends turns into a generalized settling of scores. As revelations unfold, each person discovers an unsuspected aspect of the others... and of themselves. With its sharp humor, Chamboultout plays on the unspoken, appearances, and the small compromises that hold relationships together. An ensemble comedy where the arrival of the truth, however brutal it may be, risks turning everything upside down.
