Presentation
The Announcement of the Nominations takes place on the occasion of the César Press Conference, given on Friday, January 25, 2008 at Le Fouquet’s restaurant.
The first round of voting closed the day before at midnight. The results are then counted during the night by a specialised company under the supervision of a bailiff. The bailiff hands a sealed envelope to the President of the Academy during the Press Conference, in the presence of the Host of the Ceremony, Antoine de Caunes. Together, they then read it to the journalists.
