| biography:
| Film director, born in Paris, France. His first feature film, Diva (1980), became a cult film of the 1980s. He followed this with 37°2 le matin (1986, Betty Blue) starring Béatrice Dalle, the story of a doomed love affair set in contemporary France, which again found a very appreciative public. His later film Roselyne et les lions (1989) was not as successful. In 1992 he directed Yves Montand in his last film, IP5 L'île aux pachydermes. |
