Gérard Depardieu… This name is known to almost everyone who loves cinema. A French actor who has made a brilliant career not only in his homeland but also in Hollywood. A man with a thousand faces, equally convincing in comedies,...
dramas, auteur cinema, a connoisseur of good wine and a lover of beautiful women, an unpredictable scandalist and a person for whom there are no boundaries, countries, or rules. One can love and hate Depardieu, admire him and condemn him. He doesn’t care. He is one – a universe. He lives where he wants, does what he considers necessary. Depardieu is a force that literally bursts forth. This person has a completely unrestrained attitude towards freedom. This is what fascinates and at the same time repels people. But do we really know him well? Isn’t there an innocent baby hiding behind the guise of a monster? Depardieu’s new book will reveal him to the reader from a completely different side. From a side that the reader did not even suspect. This is not a chronicle of the actor's work, but a reflection on the life of someone who has not grown tired of admiring the beauty of the world, dissolving in what surrounds him, someone who has not grown tired of simply loving. The Other – this is not philosophy. This is what cancels all your theories. It means to be both reasonable and unreasonable at the same time. It is something transcendent. The knowledge that you are reasonable or unreasonable – that is already what brings you back here. What makes you return from the Other. The Other – beyond everything. To be in the Other means to go beyond the limits. It is also present here, the Other. When you think of nothing. When you are content with simply existing. Existing in the present. In the moment when the matter we are made of naturally and simply receives the energy of life. To be in the air you breathe, to be imbued with the singing of the birds who hold a briefing due to the sunset. To feel your closeness to those natural laws by which animals exist. There is something in this, here with us God or someone else truly speaks. We should be able to leave this door open. If someday a boy asks,
