Biography of Isabelle Adjani

Perfect blend

June 27, 1955 Isabelle Yasmine Adjani was born in Paris by Algerian father and German mother on 27 June 1955. From this virtuous mixture of races has had therefore originated its outstanding beauty, the result of a balance between physiognomic rare sensuality and grace, between purity and mischief. Not surprisingly, was the actress attracted many directors of worship that have always given ambiguous roles and thick, far from the stereotype of the "beautiful figurine" that many other actresses of equal beauty they settle for play. She began acting very early in stage productions and debuted at an age as young on the movie set, particularly with the film "Le petit baigneur", that shows her still immature but already bright and maybe even creepy fascination. In 1972 he joined the "Comedie Francaise", historical and intellectual French Theatre Company. In fact, the Adjani has always characterized as an actress by choice never casual and quality, always trying to work with highly qualified Directors. A famous example is its collaboration with Truffaut, to which it owes its true blockbuster when, in 1975, "Adele h.", a romantic love story, centered on the figure of Adèle Hugo and the events narrated in his diary, discovered in 1955 by Frances Vernor Guille. In the film is Adèle Hugo, daughter of the great French writer Victor Hugo, landed at Halifax (Canadian port of Nova Scotia), to rediscover his past love, Lieutenant Pinson, unworthy man and mediocre that I don't want to know about her. But Adele not resigned, trying in every way to convince Lieutenant to marry her, bowing to the most stinging humiliation. When Pinson leaves for Barbados, Adèle follows him: now has gone mad and hovers like a ghost through the streets of the island, with the object of General derision. In short, a role not easy which gave way to the French actress to show all his qualities. Truffaut, in fact, the film builds on the centrality of the face and the body of Isabelle Adjani, which gives the character of Adele all the intensity of his Sulky expression and amazed, from eternal teenager who challenges the world. The protagonist dominates the scene, and the other characters become Extras faded without psychological texture, simple ghosts of his obsession. Although this interpretation Isabelle has not received significant Awards, later was nominated for an Oscar as best actress for "Camille Claudel" (1988). Isabelle Adjani is a very private person and he does not like at all the worldliness: it is very rare to see her appear at some party or on some tabloid scandal. For this reason, it is also difficult to know truthful reports about its true or alleged love affairs. But one thing is certain: the beautiful Isabelle I had a tempestuous love affair with the dark one Daniel Day Lewis, one of the most popular sex symbol across the channel, with whom he had a son. In 2000, after 17 years of absence Isabelle, directed by Alfredo Arias, she returned to acting in theater as poignant as Marguerite Gautier, the famous "Lady of the Camellias", already main heroine of "La Traviata" by Giuseppe Verdi and the novel by Dumas Fils.
