Jean-André Yerlès

Jean-André Yerlès, man, this guy’s fingerprints are all over some seriously good French cinema. If you’ve ever caught Au Service De La France, you know what I mean—he’s got this knack for blending razor-sharp wit with a bit of absurdity, poking fun at the whole spy genre in a way that’s just so French, it hurts. The show’s loaded with satire, clever banter, and a retro vibe that makes you wanna dig up your old vinyls and pretend you’re a secret agent dodging cliches instead of bullets. Then there’s Demain tout commence, which honestly—whew, talk about a rollercoaster. Yerlès contributed to a story that yanks you right into the deep end, mixing laughs with gut-punch emotion. Omar Sy shines as a guy totally unprepared for fatherhood, but somehow you can’t help but root for him. The film swings from wild comedy to moments that’ll make you choke up, and the writing? It’s punchy, alive, never too neat or tidy. You can really feel Yerlès’s hand in the way the characters talk—real people, messy feelings, nothing sugar-coated. And don’t even get me started on La cage dorée. It’s got that immigrant-family-in-Paris flavor, packed with heart, humor, and a little bit of culture clash chaos. The characters are lovable, infuriating, and totally relatable—again, Yerlès knows how to write people you actually wanna hang out with. Whether he’s skewering bureaucracy or tugging at your heartstrings, he’s always got that sly, human touch. Not just another screenwriter—he brings a little sparkle, a little bite, and a whole lot of honesty to every story.
