A special show.
Seven after his death,
Michel Galabru
lives on in the minds of the French.
This is why
Michel Drucker
has chosen to devote the January 22 edition of
“Vivement dimanche”
to him .
The man who wants to be
"the memory of this profession"
welcomed Emmanuelle Galabru, the actor's daughter, to his set.
"That's it, it's starting
," articulates the 46-year-old woman as she tries to contain her tears.
"If we no longer talk about people, that's how they really disappear"
, underlines the daughter of Michel Galabru while thanking the presenter for his action.
The show looks back over the actor's entire career, from his role in
Les gendarmes de Saint-Tropez
to his César award for
The Judge and the Assassin
.
And despite her father's countless films, Emmanuelle Galabru admits that she rarely went to her shoots.
Following this, Michel Drucker asked his guest if it had pleased his father when she told him that she wanted to become an actress.
She was first taken with a great burst of laughter then resumed herself to soberly answer:
“no”
.
“And then one moment there is my daughter too, very small, who says that she wants to be an actress and he replied
“oh that’s it, we are still in deep shit”
.
So no, it didn't make him happy.
But their affection for each other was in no way affected
.
“Oh I miss them both
,” says Emmanuelle Galabru with a sigh in front of a photo of her and her parents.
“It was a pierced pocket”
"My dad was more than humble even too much because he considered himself a second-rate actor. He was completely unaware that he was so loved and rightly loved because he was a loving man so I think the love that shone through from him, people received it and returned it to him as that.
“And despite his success as an actor, Michel Galabru has never rolled on gold.
“It was a pierced pocket.
You could track him, but it's his generosity.
For him, the money had no value
”, confides his daughter before adding: “
He was scammed a lot.
I always said that he was very fond of pets, but even more pet scammers”.
She then explains that her father had a fascination with con artists because he thought they had a nerve that he admired.
