Rissient was a prominent figure
within the film industry and was referred to as 'Mr.
Everywhere' by his long-time friend Eastwood. The multi-tasker was a critic in
the 1950s, then an assistant director on the set of Jean-Luc Godard’s
Breathless, and joined forces with future filmmaker Bertrand Tavernier to
handle international publicity on a range of films before embarking on a few of them
himself. Rissient died in Paris in May, 2018 at the age of 81.
