Notice to film producers: ex-blackmailer seeking funding.
Of course, “we would have to add storyline elements, like love stories”, imagines Michel D. at the end of his trial, but he could “accept a good level cinema project” based on his story.
However, he refuses to put his "writer's soul", the mother of the nine letters sent in 2004 to the executive to demand 6 million euros, for the benefit of a novel.
Probably not sensational enough to do justice to the crazy duo of blackmailers behind the “AZF affair”.
Because for a film to be a hit at the box office, casting is important.
In this, Michel D. embodies a character of choice, “modest about his feelings” he says, to the point that we sometimes doubt whether he really regrets having made and placed two bombs on railway tracks twenty years ago .
“Guilt doesn’t exist, it’s a deviance,” he assured the prosecutor this Wednesday, February 14.
A modesty which sometimes gives way to audacity: “I really appreciate you since the start of the trial,” said the 76-year-old retiree to the president, before confiding, during the examination of his personality, that he is not a man “to give in to blackmail”.
