Gérard Jugnot talks about the death of his friend Michel Blanc: “There is a little thing that bothered me”

“But every time we saw each other, we picked up the story where we left off. For example, we did a cover for Match. We laughed a lot”explained Jugnot.

Death of Michel Blanc: the actor’s cause of death revealed

However, the Choristes actor nevertheless notes a downside to the numerous tributes received by Michel Blanc after his death. “There is a little thing that bothered me, it was that we talked a lot about Jean-Claude Dusse (his emblematic character in Les Bronzés, Editor’s note)explained Gérard Jugnot before arguing: “It’s his creation, he’s the one who wrote it, who designed it, he took responsibility for it. But he did many other things, much more… Deeper. I don’t like the word deep because comedy is deep except that there is a mask! Let’s say it’s a little more cultural, and again, I don’t like those words. It’s like arthouse films and commercial films. There are no commercial films without being arthouse films…”

The actor still ended on a good note: “You know, what also pleases me is to see that the films that we made a very long time ago still exist and are still praised while many films that had received honors at the time have fallen. into oblivion. It’s a little satisfaction! There’s no revenge, but it’s still fun! Considering the buckets of shit we received, it’s still very pleasant”.

Michel Blanc only treated serious subjects with humor: “Death? I’m afraid of getting bored….”

One last project with the Splendid

Gérard Jugnot also announced that one last project with the entire Splendid gang would be published soon: a book. “This is very important because it was the last thing Michel participated in. We all took out our old photos, a little personal sometimes, and we commented on them. It’s a pretty great book that’s coming out at the end of November.
