“His coffin got stuck in an elevator the day after the solemn tribute and you said ‘Hey grandpa, you keep playing jokes on us.’ The funeral directors got stuck in the elevator, said. had to climb it to get out, got stuck in the garage again. It’s a crazy story! “, began Anne-Elisabeth Lemoine. And the 27-year-old actor, who looks a lot like his grandfather, responds: “There was a lot of antics. I think that’he didn’t want to leave without making us laugh. Et he will have made us laugh until the last moment “, commented the brother of Alessandro and Giacomo (30 and 23 years old).
“We were at home and we were waiting for the funeral directors which did not arrive. We saw them after arriving in a sweat, 20 minutes late and telling us that iThey must have gone out through the elevator hatch..Yes they must have done a stunt “. A crazy anecdote worthy of Jean-Paul Belmondo, a fine joker during his lifetime. “I think he wanted to postpone the deadline “, assumed one of the three sons of Luana and Paul Belmondo.
Before sharing other funny moments with her grandpa. “I rarely saw my grandfather in a car. I always saw him on the roof or the hood … If he was in the car, it was with the door open”, said the young comedian, who is the spitting image of his grandfather. A resemblance which struck Anne-Elisabeth Lemoine and her chroniclers but which seems to bother him. “It’s complicated … I see myself in him furtively in the movies, especially those where he is my age”, he conceded.
