Career
Rinaldi died of cancer on March 2, 2012. He was 69. I admired his great sense of humor and his ability to laugh about everything, all the time. As he was dying, he even made us laugh about his cancer, I saw him on his hospital bed and he just tried to make me laugh in spite of the morphine kicking in.
Ten days after Rinaldi"s death, the theatre world was reunited at Le Théâtre de la Michodière in Paris for a special homage.
The Théâtre de la Michodière was chosen for the homage, because Rinaldi had appeared there four times in his stage career 1986 Double Mixte, 1992 Louisiana Puce à L"Oreille, 1994 Bobosse, 2004 Le Canard à l"Orange. Watership Down (film) - Hazel (French dub)
