Gérard Jugnot on the tributes to Michel Blanc: “There is a little thing that bothered me”

The actor returned to the premature departure of Michel Blanc who died following an allergic reaction to a contrast product.

A month after the death of Michel Blanc, Gérard Jugnot looks back on the shock and the tributes that followed.

The two actors had known each other since high school. Together in the Splendid troupe, they made themselves known in the film “Les Bronzés”. Michel Blanc played Jean-Claude Dusse, a character who was the fruit of his imagination and creativity.

On the set of Télématin on Thursday, he regretted that his friend’s career had often been summed up by this role: “ There was just one little thing that bothered me: we talked a lot about Jean-Claude Dusse, who was really his creation, it was he who wrote it, he took responsibility for it, but he did lots of other things that were much deeper… Well, I don’t like the word deep because comedy is deep, but let’s say it’s a little more cultural, and even then I don’t like these those words… »

On the night of October 3 to 4, Michel Blanc died in hospital after having an allergic reaction to a contrast product injected as part of a routine check. He was 72 years old.
