About this experience

Jean-Paul Belmondo Exhibition Tickets at La Cinémathèque Française Book tickets for Belmondo, le Magnifique, the Jean-Paul Belmondo exhibition at La Cinémathèque Française in Paris, on until 31 January 2027. The exhibition celebrates one of the best-known actors in French cinema through personal archives, film posters, costumes and previously unseen photographs, following a career and a life lived at full speed. It traces his work across some 90 films, from his breakthrough in Breathless (À bout de souffle, 1960) to the comedies, action films and dramas that made him a star, and looks at his acting style, his famous stunts and his place in French cinema. The exhibition is curated by Clémentine Deroudille and set inside the Cinémathèque's Frank Gehry-designed building in the Bercy district.
