Annie Suzanne Girardot (born October 25, 1931 in Paris , † February 28, 2011 there ) was a French actress .

Life

Annie Girardot was born to a midwife. She never met her father, he was married to another woman and died when Girardot was two years old. Due to her mother's occupation, Girardot grew up in Normandy , where she attended high school in Caen . She then trained as a nurse and later took acting courses in Paris. In 1949 she made her stage debut as Dorine in Tartuffe . In 1950 she began to study acting at the Paris Conservatoire national supérieur d'art dramatique , which she graduated with honors in 1954. She then appeared as a stage actress at the Comédie-Française , where she was celebrated as "the most beautiful dramatic theater talent of the post-war period" in Jean Cocteau's play La machine à écrire . She left the Paris National Theater in 1957, briefly appeared as a cabaret artist and turned to cinema.

Girardot made her film debut in 1956 in Treize à table . In total, she worked in almost 150 film and television productions, where she was primarily cast as a character actress in tragic fate roles. She had her first major appearance in 1960 in the Visconti drama Rocco and his brothers as a prostitute at the side of Alain Delon . She starred in Lebe das Leben (1967, with Yves Montand ), Dillinger is dead (1969, with Michel Piccoli ), The Man I Like (1969, with Jean-Paul Belmondo ) , among others . A box office hit was André Cayatte's Die Aus Liebe (1971), in which Girardot played a divorced high school teacher who falls in love with an underage student. This was followed by Candlelight (1972, with Claude Jade ), Die Face Slap (1974, with Isabelle Adjani ); In 1985 and 1995, there were two more film dramas by Claude Lelouch , Departing and Coming Again (with Jean-Louis Trintignant and Michel Piccoli) and Les Misérables (with Jean-Paul Belmondo). In a portrait of the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung from 2001, she was characterized as a “gifted quick-change artist”.

In 1972 Girardot founded his own film production company, Film-Girsa , which only produced two films. Due to the financial debt from this project, the actress also took mediocre film roles at times. Another financial failure for the 50-year-old was a revue at the Casino de Paris , a joint project with the composer, chanson writer and director Bob Decout . She recorded several records with chansons.

She was seen in films by Austrian director Michael Haneke in 2001 and 2005 . In the drama The Piano Player , she acted alongside Isabelle Huppert and Benoît Magimel ; in Caché , Juliette Binoche and Daniel Auteuil were her film partners.

Girardot was married from 1962 to the Italian actor Renato Salvatori , who died in 1988 ; they had a daughter, Giulia Salvatori, who was born on July 5, 1962 in Rome . Girardot and Renato Salvatori, who met while filming Rocco and his brothers on the set, lived separately for the last few years of their marriage. During the shooting of Candlelight (1971/72), in which Bernard Fresson plays the fiancé of Girardot's film daughter Claude Jade , the seven-year love affair between Girardot and Bernard Fresson begins.

In 2006 it became known that the actress had suffered from Alzheimer's disease since the late 1990s . Her closest friends around her personal assistant Léo Bardon had decided to hide the diagnosis from her and the public so that she could continue to make films. Since a collapse in 2008, she lived with the disease, which is now well advanced, in a house in Paris equipped with appropriate medical equipment. Shortly before the collapse, filmmaker Nicolas Baulieu addressed her fate in his television film Annie Girardot, ainsi va la vie (2008). Her film partner and friend Alain Delon was so affected by her fate that he was active in the French Alzheimer's society IFRAD and in 2010 became its honorary president.

Annie Girardot died on February 28, 2011 in the Paris Hôpital Lariboisière .
