His last appearance in the cinema dates back to thirteen years ago in the film A man and his dog by Francis Huster, in turn inspired by a film by Vittorio De Sica with which he had already had the opportunity to work in the golden years. Since then, the public appearances of Jean-Paul Belmondo have been increasingly rare and exceptional, even if his myth, that of one of the most famous and appreciated French actors in Europe and in the world, has never faded, especially today, 6 September 2021, day of his disappearance. How it communicates France Press, the actor left at the age of 88 at his home in Paris. Born in Neuilly-sur-Seine in 1933, Belmondo – who, according to his lawyer, “passed away peacefully” – was the son of a sculptor, Paul.
In high school he dreamed of pursuing a sports career as an amateur boxer, but the parallel passion of acting, which led him to appear in two important films such as The double mandate by Claude Chabrol (1959) e The ciociara by Vittorio De Sica (1960), soon prompted him to change his mind and take the road of cinema seriously. Road that led him to international success thanks to Until the last breath at Jean-Luc Godard, who had previously directed him in the short film Charlotte and her Jules, and which allowed him to reach the Olympus of the great stars by obtaining the nickname of «Bébel» from the French public. Staring at the box office in his country in the 60s and 70s, his battered-looking face, as if someone had punched him in the nose, was somehow reassuring to the many spectators they saw in the “rival” Alain Delon perfection at times unbearable.
In Italy he worked, among others, with Alberto Lattuada, Vittorio De Sica and Renato Castellani, and alongside local divas such as Gina Lollobrigida, Claudia Cardinale, Sophia Loren and Stefania Sandrelli.
