The Knight of the Legion of Honor and a César Award winner lived in his own castle and had a personal filmography of 150 movies. However, to land the roles that made him famous, the creator of Inspector Juve and gendarme Cruchot had to appear in hundreds of films where he remained unnoticed. Like the biblical Moses, the actor, screenwriter, and director spent over forty years on his journey to professional success, learning to view fame merely as “Fortune’s smile.” He never regretted the slow p…
