Isabelle Adjani, or the elegance of an actress never caught out and always dressed to the nines. Portrait of Isabelle Adjani, on display next November 1 in the film “Mascarade”, by Nicolas Bedos.
In Masqueradeby Nicholas BedosIsabelle Adjani plays a declining and cantankerous star, with a lot of self-mockery. His personality could be summed up in three words: precocity, mystery and commitment. She toured for the first time in 1969. She was then 14 years old, and still had braids, for The little bougnat. She entered the Comédie-Française three years later, brilliant in particular in Women’s school by Moliere.
She then turned to the cinema, and toured with Lino Ventura for her first popular success. We call her “little Adjani”, which she hates. In 1983, his very sensual role in The killer summer made her an icon. She also breaks into song with Serge Gainsbourg, with the album Navy sweater. Behind her sunglasses, she cultivates her aura. Isabelle Adjani is one of the most photographed women in the world. It arouses desire, fantasies, but also sometimes cruel rumours. His romantic life still fascinates his young partners today. “He’s a star like we might do more”observes Peter Nineyactor. Rebellious at heart, Isabelle Adjani has never hesitated to engage in social struggles either.
