Sophie Marceau (November 17, 1966) is a French
actress born Sophie Danièle Sylvie Maupu in Paris, France.
At the age of 14 she played in the teenager movie La Boum (1980), which
overnight elevated her to teenage idol status in France and many other
European countries. In 1983, she was honored with a Cesar Award, France's
equivalent of an Oscar, for "Most Promising Actress".
Two years later the less funny but more sentimental sequel La Boum 2 (1982)
increased her popularity further. At age 16 she played a more demanding role
in Fort Saganne (1984), where her partners were Gerard Depardieu and
Catherine Deneuve. The same year she played with Jean-Paul Belmondo in
Joyeuses Pâques (1984).
She showed her dramatic skills in films directed by her long-time companion,
director Andrzej Zulawski: L'Amour braque (1985), Mes nuits sont plus belles
que vos jours (1989), La Note bleue (1991) and La Fidélité (2000).
Marceau rose to international stardom playing the part of Princess Isabelle
in Mel Gibson's epic Braveheart (1995). Following this success, she appeared
in A Midsummer Night's Dream (1999), and as a Bond girl in the James Bond
film The World Is Not Enough (1999).
Marceau wrote a semi-autobiographical novel Telling Lies (2001), and tried
directing, as well. Making her directorial debut in a feature film, Sophie
Marceau was awarded Best Director by the jury of the 2002 Montreal World
Film Festival for her film Parlez-moi d'amour (Speak to Me of Love),
starring Judith Godrèche. Prior to this, in 1995, she had made a 9-minute
short film, L'Aube à l'envers, which also starred her friend Godrèche. |
