French actor, a former "karate expert"



I recently indulged in one of those movies that will never appear in our cinemas( ala transformers2 or terminator salvation) and the only initial reason i bought the DVD was that the film also boasted one of my favourite footballers...hmm Eric Cantona.

The film titled "French Film" was initially slow in its plot but once you were fully absorbed in its intricaties an excellent movie indeed. Well, it is a story of love and Cantona played a role as a French film director Grimandi whose films evolved around the theme of love.

Just imagine the now bearded Cantona extolling all his virtues and seeming knowledge about love,,,dont ask me i preferred seeing him in the red jersey majestically strutting his football skills.

Remember his famous karate kick to a Crystal Palace supporter? Big change indeed, from a karate expert to an actor extolling the virtues of love.."Love must have its beginning...bla bla..
I can only and always remember his famous quote and still cant understand what it means..

When the seagulls follow a trawler,it is because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea.”

Only a twat can understand that...but who says a twat cant be a genius, continue your sojourn in the acting world Eric and you never knew you may even be given a bit part in a Karate movie with Jet Li and another ex footballer, Vinnie Jones (now that's a real twat!!)
