Summary

Biography

Jean-Pierre Marielle was born in Dijon, a father and a mother industrial seamstress. His early experiences as an actor back in high school, where he staged a few pieces of Chekhov with his comrades. He initially wanted to study literature but one of his teachers encouraged him instead to become an actor. Received at the National Conservatory , he became friends with Jean-Paul Belmondo and Jean Rochefort and graduated with the second prize for comedy in 1954.

First dedicated to supporting roles (including Saut the bank or the Devil by the tail) it has become a leading player in his films and has a large number of classics, including The Galettes de Pont Aven, All Day Begins, The Suitcase, Coup de Torchon, Uranus, All the Mornings of the World and more recently Grey Souls.

Career

His debut consisted of a few roles on stage with the company Grenier-Hussenot, particularly in parts of Pinter , and a few small appearances on the big screen in the late '50s with his distinctive voice giving it the means to play more characters older. But, disappointed by his first film roles, he turned a moment towards the tavern.

He got a little more substantial roles in the 60s , in films such as Blow up the bank ( 1963 ), playing alongside Louis de Funs , Weekend at Zuydcoote ( 1964 ) and especially a gentleman companion ( 1965 ), where the director Philippe de Broca gave him the opportunity to express his talent. But his popularity really exploded during the 70's where he appeared in many comedies. In The Trunk ( 1974 ), he personified an Israeli spy to hide in a trunk to be exfiltrated a country in the Middle East. The Galettes de Pont-Aven ( 1975 ), Let the party begin ( 1974 ) Coup de Torchon ( 1981 ) and a moment of madness (1977) brought him the status of a great actor.

Best known for his comic roles, he has nevertheless marked his career of some dark and tragic roles, including that of a cop disillusioned and suicidal in the month of April are murderers ( 1987 ), or the role of Monsieur de Sainte-Colombe in All the Mornings of the World ( 1992 ).

In 1995, he delivered a hilarious performance along with his two friends, Jean Rochefort and Philippe Noiret in the comedy The Dukes , where he plays an actor "has-been" grumpy and knock out.

In 1999, he played his own role in the film The Actors of Bertrand Blier.

In 2005, it is found alongside Jacques Villeret and Denis Podalyds in Grey Souls , where he played a mysterious and austere prosecutor involved in two murders ...

In 2007, he played the role of a man wanting to stay young forever and thinking only to the beautiful women with much younger than him in Let's Get Dancing! , which earned him a nomination for the Csar for Best actor.

He also made a brilliant career on stage and received a Molire for best actor in 1994.

It is one of those great players to have many times been proposed for Caesar (7 times in total) without winning the prize, but he admits it and laugh madly even said he was not an actor of "raffle.

It is now considered one of the last giants of French cinema.
