    • "Sur un fil, entre deux immeubles, de l'aile d'un avion au toit d'une voiture ou d'un métro, Jean-Paul Belmondo a pris tous les risques. Des années plus tard, il en rit encore, l'oeil brillant. Ces éclats de rire tonitruants, il s'en est toujours servi pour garder ses secrets : sa vie, ses rencontres, sa famille, ses amours, ses joies immenses et ses peines les plus grandes. Jean-Paul Belmondo a aujourd'hui décidé de tout raconter. Son enfance marquée par la guerre, sa mère courage, l'atelier de son père, et ses premières amours. Il nous entraîne dans les pas dilettantes de son service militaire en Algérie. Il nous invite aux comptoirs de la rue Saint-Benoît, pour y faire les quatre cents coups avec ses copains de toujours, Jean-Pierre Marielle, Jean Rochefort, Michel Beaune, Pierre Vernier, Charles Gérard. Jean-Paul Belmondo se raconte ici pour la première fois, nous livrant la certitude que, oui, mille vies valent mieux qu'une."--Page 4 of cover
