The 58 -year -old actor, who now shares his life with the model Narah Baptista, already thinks of what he would like to do with his body when he made his last breath. “I would see it well cremated, with my ashes balanced in the sea, surely in Brazil.” To explain his choice concerning incineration, Vincent Cassel evokes a link that exceeds materiality. “My father is buried, but while I often think of him, I don’t see the need to go to his grave,” he said.
His particular attachment to Brazil
If he wishes to rest in Brazil, it is because he has had a particular relationship with this country for more than forty years. The reasons for his attachment “had to change along the way,” he said to the magazine, but he always admires the philosophy of the country which he defines as “a kind of swing, a way of remaining fun, taking a step back and not asking for a victim, even when it is shit.”
