msc 18,479 Posted January 3, 2019 14 minutes ago, Paul Bearer said: Who is he and what's he been in? Proper famous French actor, despite not being in many English films. Star of Z, massive film in the late 60s that got nominated for buckets of Oscars/BAFTAs and won a bunch. And Amour, that French film few years back that made it big and got Emmanuelle Riva an Oscar nod right before she carked it. One of the few popular DDP picks this year my mum brings up in conversation unprompted too. She really likes The Conformist (early film by recently dead Bertolucci) and the Three Colours trilogy, which were big here too. Don't worry, I'd never heard of Alvin Stardust when he died, but he was proper famous too... PS He's also known over here for his daughter getting murdered by a pop star.

He was in God Created Woman with Brigitte Bardot - you probably won't be looking at him if you watch it though. He must also be in a Western because he's the joker in my DDP Western theme team.

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted January 3, 2019 Don't know who he is, but I respect whatever his oeuvre presents. He is a classic deathpool name where 90% of the folks would be clueless, particularly as he didn't perform in English language stock as mentioned. That all said, he was a very late cut I admit, but a very late cut because SCreep stared at his name and finally came to the realization he was in his 80s, and thus 5 lousy fekkin DDP points -- the equivalent of a miss -- and unless and if and only if he was D40 would he be 8 points and worth a roster spot. So he got the ax for being a bad choice. Plus no guarantee of death or a QO for that matter, though both more likely than not. As for D40, well--I didn't choose him, so there goes a smidgen of percentage points. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Prophet 251 Posted January 3, 2019 I think there is a realistic chance that he can survive this year. His cancer hasn't spread already, right? And it's just prostate cancer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hmm As a dead pool compiler I'm thinking he might be popular enough to qualify as a DDP Drop 40 case - he looked a decent pick for sometime this year to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aye, tricky this, mind - English version of Le Monde as of a minute ago has nowt in the leading headlines, and his death would be a biggie for them.
