BELMONDO, tribute to a great French actor (by Yvan Benedetti)

Surprising, this unanimous tribute from a devirilized, pacifist and feminist society to an actor who was just the opposite.

He was the perfect embodiment of the white, virile, macho, sexist male that all real women snatch; The one who corrected the bad guy with his fists... The man knew the complexity of life, far from the Manichean positions of today ...

His father, a talented sculptor, born in this French Algeria which served as a mold for a whole European immigration, had pushed the collaboration with Germany far, admirer that he was of the artistic policy of the Third Reich and of its official sculptor Arno Breker, which had earned him to be prosecuted by the Gaullist and communist liberators.

Beyond this paradox, there remains the nostalgia that invades us at the evocation of this cinema of its time which relied on real actors, with dialogues with such a French spirit and unforgettable music.

The cinema of that time had not yet been handed over to the vultures and rotten by political correctness and diversity, even if we could already see the present drift and mediocrity dawning.

The bad guys could still be played by mulattoes with sinister faces and the heroes by very French actors….

Belmondo cannot be taken back by a power that advocates the reverse of everything the character stood for.

Hello Bébel, this is just a goodbye, since we will see you again in each of your films.
