BeretBleu 138 Posted May 29, 2017 Hi, i don't know if there's some french people here. But i would like to make a french speaking deathlist next year. Same rules than deathlist, we just have to choose 50 french speaking people. Cause some of our celebrities are not enough famous for original game. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CaptainChorizo 1,990 Posted May 29, 2017 Here is 1 name who I don't think is famous enough for DL but might meet criteria for 50 French speaking celebs Cesar nominee Claire Maurier b. 1929 http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0561158/ Has not appeared in any projects since 2013. Had been working regularly in film and tv since the early 50's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
esher 3 Posted May 29, 2017 Hi, I'm from the french-speaking part of Belgium and we use to play our own deathlist with some colleagues for three years now... Had the same idea, too. What we first need to agree on is a common reference for obits, I think... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

esher 3 Posted May 29, 2017 For the english-speaking deathlist, an obit has to be posted on UK media for taking a death into account. (See above the list on the frontpage). That won't be the case here, so do we say "French media" (not really fair for us belgians, but hey...) ? Or the Wikipedia page ? (Our reference at work).

ObakeFilter 909 Posted May 29, 2017 Not a frenchman myself, but Jean-Louis Trintignant is a no brainer. Surely his daughters murder had at least some effect on him. He also suffered an injury a few years back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Book 3,561 Posted May 29, 2017 Nice idea. My second theme team is about French people, take a look at my signature. Maybe you will find some good picks in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Davey Jones' Locker 1,324 Posted May 29, 2017 We have a lot of French names in the "Foreign Personalities" thread (mostly cinema people) and the Charles Aznavour thread broadened out over time to include chanson stars in general. They might give you some ideas for potential candidates for your list. Good luck! See this list: https://forums.deathlist.net/topic/7873-foreign-personalities-from-stage-screen-politics-and-life/?do=findComment&comment=306170 and https://forums.deathlist.net/topic/8334-charles-aznavour/?page=2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handrejka 1,904 Posted May 29, 2017 Danielle Darrieux and Juliet Greco seem like potentials. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Davey Jones' Locker 1,324 Posted May 29, 2017 Albert Uderzo, Jacques Chirac, Johnny Hallyday, Andre Gounelle, Valéry Giscard d'Estaing, Liliane Bettencourt and Pierre Cardin are also good potential picks. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord Fellatio Nelson 6,220 Posted May 29, 2017 I have no idea. Petula Clark is a naturalised Frenchie and she is 80 odd. JP Gaultier is only 65 but always looks ill but I wouldnt pick him coz I liberally cover myself in his 'Le Male' after shave every single day. So, erm, Michael Lonsdale it is then.

gcreptile 10,979 Posted May 29, 2017 Maybe some Nouvelle Cuisine people, or nouveau vague, or the correspondent novelties in photography and the arts. Raymond Cauchetier, Agnes Varda, Paul Bocuse.. (Book has two of them, I think) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean 6,337 Posted May 29, 2017 Gerard Depardieu Jean Luc Goddard Bernadette Chirac Jeanne Moreau Jean Marie Le Pen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Dead Cow 620 Posted May 29, 2017 Brigitte Bardot, Alain Badiou and Roman Polanski are all possibilities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BeretBleu 138 Posted May 30, 2017 Just Fontaine is a possible pick. Maybe other of 1958 squad but they are less famous. And none spoke of Alain Delon, look good but old ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeretBleu 138 Posted May 30, 2017 And tennis player : Jerome Golmard. He has the same ill than Joost van der Westhuizen since 2014. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
