Charles Denner

Mr. Denner began studying in Paris with 'Charles Dullin' (qv) in 1945. Four years later, he joined the National Popular Theater. In 1962, he was offered his first big film role, in _Bluebeard (1963)_ (qv). He made thirty films after that, notably with 'Claude Lelouch' (qv) and 'François Truffaut' (qv). Over the years, he worked under some of France's best-known directors, including 'Louis Malle' (qv). During the 70's and 80's, he notoriously personified police detectives in famous French "Films Noirs" such as _Tausend Milliarden Dollar (1982)_ (qv) or _The Night Caller (1975)_ (qv).::Anonymous
