| biography:
| Actor, born in Toulon, SE France. A child entertainer, he worked in mime and as a croupier before moving to Paris, making his film debut in 1912. He appeared throughout the 1920s in revues, operettas, and comedies before creating the character of César in Marius (1929), which he repeated on film in 1931. Able to combine pathos and humour in his portrayals of the dignified French working man, his films include Fanny (1932) and Un Carnet de Bal (1937). |
