Did you know?!Facts and trivia about Féroce (2002)
Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- Féroce drew controversy for opening days before the 2002 presidential election's first round. Jean-Marie Le Pen and his daughter, his campaign director, opposed the film, saw its Lègle character as an allusion to him, and said it called for murder and defamed their party; a court refused their request to delay release until after legislative elections.
