Award-winning French actor Gerard Depardieu’s autobiography is more out-there than a script from one of his movies.
Depardieu writes he began to wander the streets when he was just 10 but could easily pass for being 15 - and quickly realised he was attractive to men.
He said: 'I've known since I was very young that I please homosexuals' and added when men approached, asking for sex, 'I would ask them for money'.
He also admits he occasionally helped a man to dig up newly buried bodies in the cemetery and steal jewellery and shoes from them.
