In Jean-Paul Le Chanois' comedies Papa, Mama, Katrin and I and Papa, Mama, my wife and I, she was the maid and future wife of Robert Lamoureux . A more mature figure was her young widow Kristina, who fell in love with The Blonde Witch in Maurice Ronet and, in the end, stood by her rival Marina Vlady .
