She leaves a big void, especially in the heart of Kev Adams. Indeed, Mylène Demongeot left us this Thursday, December 1 at the age of 87 after a long fight against cancer of the peritoneum as indicated by the writer Henry-Jean Servat. The author wished to pay homage to her and evoke the actress with our colleagues from the Free lunch.
“She was a wonderful artist”he first admitted before adding: “She had spent her youth in Montpellier, she had married in the church of Palavas-les-Flots, she loved the region. She was involved in the protection of animals. She had been a friend for more than 40 years”. Her fans will remember her last great success when she played alongside Gérard Depardieu and Kev Adams in Retirement home the work of Thomas Gilou. Kev Adams, precisely, did not hide his pain on the set of C to you when he mentioned the actress and colleague.
A colleague he will never forget
“It’s heartbreaking…It breaks my heart. She’s a woman I bonded with on set. She was sending me movies to watch. I took it like a blow to the head. Learning that today broke me in two”said the comedian, who struggled to hold back tears when he spoke of the actress who notably played alongside Franck Dubosc in Camping. Especially since the actor also added that a sequel to the film Retirement home was planned. And even without Mylène Demongeot, there is no question of abandoning the project.
Through this film, Kev Adams wishes to wink at him and try to make “the best possible film to pay tribute to him”. In the past, the actress had already wowed the public with her roles in Ghosts or The Salem Witches.
