Well, someone had to get the award since Gérard Depardieu is now a Russian.

This award had nothing to do with the upcoming "Die Hard" movie.......I have yet to see an award like this go to someone whos actually watched 30 years of movies!

Well... At least it's an award for the arts... I'd rather see more of these than Legions of Honour such as bestowed to Celine Dion...

This from a country who thinks Jerry Lewis is a comedic genius, so why not.

I was very interested to learn about this gentleman. From what I understand it was high time I did. Thank you Madame la Ministre.

Does his support to vodka manufacturing have anything to do with this ? If he helps save jobs, it might be a good enough reason to get a medal, non ?;
