actor Jean-Louis Trintignant is dead

Jean-Louis Trintignant died on Friday June 17. In 2019, at the top of the steps in Cannes (Alpes-Maritimes), Jean-Louis Trintignant smiles, despite the disease that is eating away at him. At his side, Anouk Aimée and Claude Lelouch for the screening of the cult film that has become “The most beautiful years of a life”. The actor’s career began very strongly, in 1956, with “God created woman”, alongside Brigitte Bardot. She will be his companion and will remain very attached to him. Jean-Louis Trintignant wins the interpretation prize at Cannes in “Z”, by Costa-Gavras.

Cynic or young first, the actor can embody everything and connects the roles at full speed. Despite the successes, he announced in 1998 to shoot his last film, “Those who love me will take the train”, by Patrice Chéreau. The actor will then take the path of the theater boards. A drama will have marked him forever, the death of his daughter, Marie Trintignant, killed by her companion, Bertrand Cantat, in 2003. He will finally return to the cinema with the film “Amour” by Michael Haneke.
