Woody Allen says said French President Nicolas Sarkozy came to the set one evening because he was curious to see his wife act. Allen in an interview with Italian daily Corriere della Sera said that France's first lady, Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, was very professional on the set of his movie Midnight in Paris.

The ex-supermodel was on set in July for her appearance in Allen's romantic comedy, which stars Owen Wilson and Marion Cotillard. Allen said Bruni-Sarkozy plays a guide at the Rodin Museum and that she was so good he's going to keep all her scenes in.
