French film great Jean-Paul Belmondo dies at 88
French film great Jean-Paul Belmondo dies at 88 Jean-Paul Belmondo's battered face, laconic style and roguish smile captured the imagination of French 1960s youth. Belmondo, who has died at his Paris home aged 88, was the cool rebel of the new wave of French cinema typified in Jean-Luc Godard's 1960 film classic, A Bout de Souffle.actorfrancemovielink
