Backstage is a 2005 French psychological drama film directed by Emmanuelle Bercot and co-written by Bercot and Jérôme Tonnerre.17 year old Lucie (Isild Le Besco) is an ordinary teenager and an obsessive fan of popular singer Lauren Waks (Emmanuelle Seigner). One day, Lucie's destiny leads her to enter the life of her idol. Gradually, their lives intertwine as, with near-operatic intensity, the film delves into the emotional dependency on both sides of celebrity culture.Not to be confused with the Canadian series Backstage. | |

Control Freak | |
| Backstage (2005) / int_11ad560b | comment |
Control Freak: As Lucie's Sanity Slippage goes, she increasingly feels the need to control Lauren's love life, going so far as interrupting Lauren and the man she was about to have sex with at a party. | |

"Do It Yourself" Theme Tune: Emmanuelle Seigner actually learned to sing for the role of Lauren to perform her songs herself, thus launching her own singing career. | |

Mood-Swinger | |
| Backstage (2005) / int_4b4f6a2f | comment |
Mood-Swinger: The increasingly unhappy Lauren can change mood quite abruptly, from taking Lucie as a quasi-confidant to rejecting her and letting her come by her side again and having a Sleep Cute moment with her head on Lucie's shoulder. Though Lucie's own Sanity Slippage doesn't help either. | |

Loony Fan | |
| Backstage (2005) / int_6220d661 | comment |
Loony Fan: It's an understatement to say that Lucie is obsessed with Lauren beyond reasonable. Having been too overwhelmed by emotion to talk to her when she came at her own home, she does everything to meet her again afterwards. Surprisingly, Lauren doesn't mind her staying at her hotel room for no reason (probably because she isn't the same unhinged kind as the loud ones who camp outside the hotel, at least initially), even allowing her in her bathroom as she's naked in a bath. Lauren's manager even ponders if she doesn't find something reassuring in Lucie, who also gradually gets to see how unhappy Lauren is, connecting with her on a level most fans can't. But then Lucie's Celeb Crush progressively takes over, going so far as having her want to control Lauren's love life. Lauren mentions at one point that a group of fans stayed under her hotel room's windows shouting until 4 am. The mob of fans coming for Lorraine in the last third of the film is also pretty unhinged, with one jealous fan spitting on the window of the car Lucie and Lauren are in, aiming it at Lucie. | |

Sanity Slippage | |
| Backstage (2005) / int_62434fe2 | comment |
Sanity Slippage: Lucie wasn't all that rational about her passion for Lauren and her songs to begin with, but her obsession morphing into Celeb Crush only gets worse over time. | |

"Meet the Celebrity" Contest: At the beginning, a TV channel makes a surprise for Lucie and arranges for Lauren to perform at her own home. She falls in tears under the emotion, Lauren gives her a hug, and when the performance is over, she locks herself in her room instead of staying for the cameras. Only when Lauren leaves does Lucie try to run after her. | |

Bathtub Scene: At one point, in a moment of high stress because of her sudden inability to perform, Lauren takes a bath and lets Lucie in. She cries and lets herself sink, which prompts Lucie to lift her torso out of the water and hug her (a Bathtub Bonding of sorts). | |
