Before filming began on Gainsbourg (vie héroïque), Writer/Director Joann Sfar invited fellow comic illustrator Mathieu Sapin to accompany the cast and crew on their adventure over the next four months to document the daily events throughout the film-making process. After filling sketchbook after sketchbook, his behind-the-scenes illustrations were released on January 20, 2010 in the form of a book entitled "Feuille de Chou (Journal d'un tournage)" which should make any fans of Gainsbourg, comic illustration, and any behind-the-scenes film buff, jump for joy. See 4 sample pages below (click pic to enlarge).
Sfar and Sapin sat down for an interview at FNAC Montparnasse to discuss the the film, book, and everything that went into making Gainsbourg (vie héroïque). Watch the 3-part video below (sorry, only in French).
