She fought so hard… She told us about her illness during the performances of Le Prénom. We went through this magnificent adventure, the play and the film, with this black cloud… But unfortunately, the cancer she suffered from was incredibly violent, ruthless.“, had sadly remembered Patrick Bruel during an interview for Star TV, a month after his death.
