Michel Blanc makes touching remarks
The actor, who remained very close to Gérard Jugnot over the years, did not stop there and continued to confide about his difficult years with Mireille Dumas, who at the time collected the words of others like no one else. “I was never really 16. I gave off something unbalanced between appearance and interior. And it doesn’t work, it’s very worrying for other people. It’s not attractive at all”he noted, particularly touching in his speech. Ultimately optimistic, he told the host that, when he was younger, he had thought that“from 30 years old, the exterior will look more like the interior”. As Mireille Dumas asked him if, now as an adult, things were better, Michel Blanc had obviously used humor by evoking his “expiration date”. Internet users were touched by the actor’s words. Many left tender messages in the comments of this old video: “Many of his words and thoughts touch me. He was a great man, there is no doubt that his kindness will continue”, “These words are so full of wisdom” or “How can you not love him? He’s not gone, we have him in us!”they wrote in particular. If his adolescence had not been fun, Michel Blanc touched so many people thanks to his profession that it must have calmed his bruised heart in his young years.
