The architect of the abolition of the death penalty, who left this Friday, February 9 at the age of 95, participated in 1995 in the program Bouillon de culture where very personal questions are addressed. In 1970, still on television, in the show Pour le cinéma, he acted as one-night critic by saying, in front of Jean-Pierre Melville and Jean Ferniot, all the good things he thought of the Walt Disney cartoon The Jungle Book.
“I found it absolutely charming. We're happy when we leave, and we don't kill the tiger, which made me happy,” he says.
