Gerard Depardieu - MSN Encarta |
 | | Gérard Depardieu, born in 1948, French motion-picture actor, known for his outstanding, complex performances in a variety of roles. |
 | | Born in Châteauroux, France, Depardieu was a delinquent youth who left home at the age of 13. |
 | | In Depardieu’s early films in the 1970s he played mostly aggressive, male-chauvinist parts that exploited his delinquent background and overpowering physique, such as the hoodlum in Les valseuses (Going Places, 1974), a burglar in Maitresse (1975), and a seducer in La dernière femme (The Last Woman, 1976). |
