Many thanks to pierregg (moderator) for his help with telling us some meaning :)

Many words to describe how good looking he is.
But here's what we can learn : when he was a teenager, his father agreed that if he completed his baccalauréat ( university entrance exams), then he could have 3 years to try to make it in cinema.
So after completing his 'bac', he moved to Paris.

Things did not worked has planned. Once, a bar /night club owner, from whom he was seeking a job, told him he should try modelling. He sent polaroid to many agencies and Marylin contacted him. He did a few contracts, but modeling as was not his first choice and he decided he would go back home after his 25th birthday.

But in the mean time, he had met Catherine Breillat in a Parisian café. She called him for an audition. Found him too young for the role, but he insisted and convinced her.*

We also learn that his father his a berbère (berber) from Morocco and that his mother is from Corsica (a French protectorate)
