Louis Garrel Biography
Primarily known in the U.S. for his memorable performance in director Bernardo_Bertolucci's controversial 2003 drama The_Dreamers, Paris-born actor Louis Garrel made his first onscreen appearance in the 1989 film Les Baisers de Secours (Emergency_Kisses). While it was over a decade until Garrel would appear onscreen again, his comeback role in Rodolphe_Marconi's 2001 Ceci_Est_Mon_Corps (This_Is_My_Body) marked the beginning of a spectacular run that would find him working with some of the biggest directors on the international film scene and winning his very first César Award (for the 2005 film Les_Amants_Réguilers [Regular_Lovers]). Shortly after portraying the male half of a cinema-obsessed pair of siblings in Bertolucci's The_Dreamers, Garrel stunned viewers with his performance as a young man who loses his father and subsequently follows his amoral mother on a hedonistic journey of depravity in Christophe_Honoré's adaptation of the notorious Georges_Bataille novel -Ma Mère. On the heels of his critically acclaimed performance in Les_Amants_Réguilers, Garrel again teamed with Honoré for Dans_Paris in 2006 and Les Chansons d'Amour in 2007. Jason Buchanan, Rovi
