Luc Drion left us too early

By Jacques Perrin

La Lettre AFC n°226

[ English ] [ français ]

Luc, your filming friends from those films that take months, years, to film, just the right amount of time to forge friendships. We are all here, all united in thinking about you.

You withstood the peaks of the Himalaya,
Valiant companion of the migratory birds,
Robust before the oceanic tempest,
Soldered to the helicopter flying into the storm,
Contemplative before the forces and mysteries of nature,
Silent or loquacious depending on circumstances and company,
With your habitual sensitivity, your incomparable talent,
You had already begun our film…but you left us too early…
We miss you, Luc, as Edna and your children, Rapahël and Manon, will miss you.
Goodbye, Luc.

Jacques Perrin is a producer, director and actor.
