Blavette
Charles. 1967-11-21

65

Born 1902-06-24. Domain:Performing. Cause of death:Unknown

Charles Blavette was a French film actor. He appeared in 50 films between 1933 and 1966. Blavette died on November 21, 1967, during the filming of Jacquou le croquant series by Stellio Lorenzi, where he played Jansou, the peasant who had betrayed and denounced Jacquou's father. He had already shot his scenes from the first and second episodes, which appeared in the series, and he was due to returning to the sixth episode, during the revenge of Jacquou, who became an adult, but Blavette died before he could shoot these last scenes. Following his death, Stellio Lorenzi integrated into episode 4 a scene that evokes dying Jansou, showing only his house, but never the actor. In this scene, Jacquou refuses to see Jansou: he abruptly leaves the priest who brought him to meet him so that he grants his forgiveness to the peasant.
