 Combustible Celluloid film review - L'Atalante (1934), Jean Vigo, Michel Simon, Dita Parlo, dvd review
First mate Père Jules (Michel Simon) and a dopey cabin boy (Louis Lefevre) run out of the church in their wedding finery to get their barge ready.
The actor Michel Simon, with his gorilla arms and mashed-potato face, was one of the greatest actors in all cinema (he can best be seen in Jean Renoir's La Chienne and Boudu Saved from Drowning).
Simon brings unexpected and unusual depth to his nothing-much character and hence adds beautiful weight to the entire piece.

Simon came through with one of the great performances of the thirties, as the scruffy tramp who symbolizes freedom and anarchy in a society dominated by middleclass values and conventions.
Michel Simon had already starred for Renoir in La Chienne and would go on to important roles in L’Atalante (1934), Le Quai des Brumes (1938), and The Train (1965), but his performance here in Boudu Saved from Drowning was a career performance.
Everything!" It is interesting that Simon's first three great films, from La Chienne to L’Atalante, all deal to an extent with the timeless conflict between personal freedom and social responsibility.

She is swung on a strut from the shore to the ship by the fleshy first mate, Jules (Michel Simon), whose swaggering brusqueness in berating the cabin boy is magnificently undercut by Vigo's simultaneous establishment of his love for his pet cats.
The first stunning sequence of the film sets up Juliette as a both fragile and fearlessly curious young woman: Parlo leans against and over the jutting iron protuberances of her new home as dusk falls around her.
Michel Simon's crustily genial portrayal of Jules embodies the pansexual lawlessness of Vigo's cosmos.

Boasting at its core an outrageous, towering performance by Michel Simon, "Boudu Saved From Drowning" is also marked by legendary director Jean Renoir's ("La Regle Du Jeu", "La Grande Illusion") gentle shifts in tone encompassing the farcical and the tragic.

 VH1.com : Movies : Person : Michel Simon : Biography
His screen performances of the 1930s remain fresh and alive even after six decades, largely due to Simon's sudden spurts of improvisation; Jean Renoir, who directed Simon in La Chienne (1931) and Boudu Saved From Drowning (1932), has credited the actor with introducing the "improv" technique to French filmmaking.
In 1957, Simon's film career nearly came to an abrupt end when he suffered facial and body paralysis as a by-product of an impure makeup dye.
All reports indicate that Michel Simon conducted his private life in the manner of one of his gross, eccentric film characters: he lived alone on a huge country estate, sharing space with a pet parrot and four apes.

The son of a sausage-maker, Michel Simon was conscripted into the Swiss Army at the start of World War I, but was thrown out through a combination of tuberculosis and general insubordination.
His reputation soon grew, and he moved to Paris in 1923, appearing in his first film in 1925 (the same year he played Boudu for the first time on stage).
With the coming of sound, Simon became firmly established as one of France's outstanding character actors, doing unforgettable work for Jean Renoir ('La Chienne', Boudu Saved From Drowning'), 'Jean Vigo ('L'Atalante') and Marcel Carne ('Quai des Brumes', 'Drole de Drame').
