Spanish cinema mourns Tony Leblanc

Tony Leblanc passed away yesterday

Tony Leblanc passed away at the age of 90.

Hundreds of people have come to the burning chapel of actor Tony Leblanc since early this morning this Sunday, November 25. The burning chapel had been located in the Fernando Fernán Gómez Theater, in the Plaza de Colón, to say his last goodbye to the artist who died yesterday at the age of 90.

In addition to anonymous citizens, numerous personalities such as Santiago Segura, Imanol Arias, Concha Velasco, José Ignacio Wert, Ana Botella, Pilar Bardem, Miki Molina o Enrique Gonzlez Macho,  have had fond words for the famous actor.

Actress Concha Velasco, who has been in the burning chapel, and who shared with Leblanc numerous film and theater titles, such as 'The Girls of the Red Cross', has assured: «Tony Lebanc has been everything for me.He was my teacher, my brother. In addition, Concha Velasco, one of the first to arrive, said that today in Spain is "a day of mourning" because one of the best actors has left.

Safe Santiago, who directed him in his last role in 'Torrente 4', has confessed that during his way to the Theater he has realized that it was the first time I went to see Tony Leblanc "without being happy". "Whenever I went to see Tony I was happy," he pointed out, to add that just as fiction was "his father, his uncle, his grandfather," in "real life" it has been his friend, and his "idol." .

For its part, Imanol Arias, Tony Leblanc's partner in the series 'Tell me how it happened' (that will return shortly) of TVE between 2001 and 2010, recalled his great sense of humor: «He never laughed at her jokes, what he liked was to see how others enjoyed them.
