When the train arrives at its destination, one of the passengers, a girl, is found dead in a sleeping berth.

It is also a delightful showcase for the family of Simone Signoret. She, her husband and her daughter twinkle beguilingly. It shouldn't be missed by anyone interested in theatrical genealogy. Naturally, first attention is drawn to Miss Signoret, who has a role of light-hearted indecorum that was obviously tailored for her. She plays a middle-aged road-show actress who is one of the occupants in a sleeping-car in which a handsome woman is found murdered after the train reaches Paris on overnight run from Marseilles. Her delicate hints of personal bawdry when the detectives call to question her as one of the suspects in the murder are among the entertainment's lighter, crisper charms. Second attention is attracted to her husband, Yves Montand, who plays the squinteyed and tight-lipped chief detective in true French who-dunit style. You know the type: chain-smoker, wears a hat all the time, doesn't betray the least emotion or belief at anything he hears. He's also the type whose mind is clicking like an International Business Machine even through the most complicated phases of this granitically baffling film, which Costa Gravas has written and directed and which opened at the Coronet yesterday. But the focus of the viewer's attention should be Catherine Allegret. She is Miss Signoret's daughter by the writer, Yves Allegret, who directed Miss Signoret in the first film in which she made a spectacular hit, "Dedee." If ever there was a duplication of a mother in a slightly smaller size (and with a little more plumpness around the key points), it is this charming lass. She is a luscious little pigeon as another occupant of the sleeping-car who has compromised her situation somewhat by sneaking a lad into the compartment during the night, then taking him to her Paris lodgings and having a cute little love affair with him. Naturally, the gendarmes are suspicious when they get onto her. But by this time, the plot has thickened to such a point that they hardly care. Indeed, the one thing about this picture that renders it slightly hard to take is that the plot gets so thick and calculated that it becomes temporarily conqealed. This despite the fact that Mr. Gravas, who is hard on the trail of the New Wave, whips it up with a lot of camera trickery and an abundance of cinematic style. It races and pants like "Breathless," it vibrates like "Alphaville." And it ends in a chase that screams and screeches like something from the American "underground." When it finally puts the finger on that mysterious character with the gun, it doesn't make sense. But that's not awful. It's fast, it's funny. And it's quite a family film. Naturally, French is spoken. English subtitles say what it means.

Nadine Alari Daniel, a young runaway riding the overnight train from Marseilles to Paris without a ticket, is aided in avoiding the conductor by Bambi, a young woman on her way to a job in Paris. She arranges for him to spend the night in an unoccupied berth in her compartment. He leaves early the next morning but returns when he realizes that he has forgotten his suitcase. He finds Georgette Thomas, a perfume saleswoman who had a lower berth, murdered in the compartment. Inspector Grazzi and his assistant, Jean-Lou, are assigned to the case. Through the newspapers, Grazzi asks the other occupants of the compartment that night to contact the police. Cabourg, an office worker, is the first to come forward, but he is soon found dead. Daniel and Bambi remain together, but they avoid the police because they fear discovery by their parents. Daniel finds the wallet of Eliane Darrès, a fading actress who had been in the compartment, but when he and Bambi return it, they find Eliane being interrogated by Grazzi. They hide and see a young man, Eric, slipping out of Eliane's back door. Eliane tells Grazzi that Daniel had occupied the sixth berth. Shortly thereafter, Eliane is murdered, as is Rivolani, a truckdriver who also had been in the compartment. Eric, who had been Eliane's lover, is questioned but has an alibi. Daniel overhears two men planning to kill Bambi, and after telling her to hide in a hotel room, he calls Grazzi to tell all he knows. The police prevent Eric from killing Bambi, but Eric is only an accomplice; the real murderer, Jean-Lou, is now after Daniel. Jean-Lou knew of Eliane's large bank account and her passion for young men and had plotted with his friend Eric to kill her. Grazzi manages to save Daniel, and, after a wild chase through Paris, Jean-Lou is apprehended. The Forgotten: Costa-Gavras' "The Sleeping Car Murders" Written by David Cairns Published on 06 November 2014 Some movies just vanish. While Costa-Gavras continues to enjoy a high reputation for his sixties and seventies political thrillers (perhaps more respected than watched, which is a shame) and to some extent for his later American movies (more watched than respected, also a shame), The Sleeping Car Murders (1965), one of his earliest works, is so hard to see that I wound up watching a pan-and-scanned off-air recording taped on VHS from Scottish Television sometime in the eighties, and dubbed into English. At least Simone Signoret seems to have done her own re-voicing, but her erring husband Yves Montand has that strained Amurrican tone I associate with Robert Rietty doing Orson Welles. So Costa-Gavras' movie, formerly a missing person, turns up as a homicide victim, mutilated to prevent identification. With the performances defaced, the compositions utterly ruined, and the editing patterns minced in this copy (because a cut doesn't mean the same thing if half the frame is absent), it's naturally hard to assess Costa-Gavras' work, but what you can see of it is just super and the movie is hard, fast as hell and compelling. I just read the book, which is by Sebastien Japrisot (an anagram of his true name, Jean-Baptiste Rossi ), most of whose twisty novels have been adapted for the screen: The Rider on the Rain, The Lady in the Car with Glasses and a Gun, One Deadly Summer, A Very Long Engagement). The book is predicated on an extraodinarily unlikely coincidence, but this is buried deeply within an elaborately cross-plotted roman policier full of plausible detail and sad compassion, like a Simenon story taken to demented limits. In adapting the convoluted structure, the Greek director has chosen to jettison some of the interlaced mysteries, introducing us to all the characters on the fateful sleeper car up front, which was probably a necessary change even if it robs us of some intrigue along the way. A woman is strangled on a train. As plodding copper Montand, nursing a bad head cold, tries to straighten out the lies and errors in the account of who was traveling in the compartment, a couple of teenage amateurs rush around Paris uncovering their own clues and putting their lives in jeopardy, and the killer, swathed in a sinister black plastic mac, starts bumping off the witnesses. The twist being that none of them is aware of having witnessed anything significant. What is it they know that could send a murderer to the guillotine? (Did they still have the guillotine in 1965? I'm going to assume they did.) To convey all this frothing, seething plot, Costa-Gavras jumps about crazily, diving into his characters heads with subjective camera, flashbacks and internal monologues. As in the book, this allows an ordinary group of travelers to assume tragic stature as their lives come into focus just before the fatal bullet signals fade-out. It also allows the filmmaker to play at Hitchcock and anticipate Argento, serving up stylised, kinetic and extravagant set-piece homicides. When one man is plugged repeatedly in the head (with dumdum bullets!) his viewpoint lurches handheld into a wash basin spattered with blood and then plummets to the floor to watch his killer sprint off, upside down, plastic raincoat swishing out of view in a grim, inverted retinal imprint. So, in fact, Costa-Gavras helped invent the giallo. The movie bustles with French acting talent: Charles Denner turns up as a suspect, a role enhanced by his associations: both Chabrol's Landru and Truffaut's The Man Who Loved Women. In fact, his character is a flake, defined by his name ("Bob is my real name. Robert is just a nickname."). Jean-Louis Trintignant, an actor with numerous locomotive associations, plays a veterinary student who reads muscle mags (always movie code) and has a weird array of renaissance art depicting torture all over his room. Montand grimly surveys the inside of his lampshade, weirdly illustrated. Art and muscle mags? It can only mean one thing, and in fact the stressing of this element actually makes Costa-Gavras' movie less politically progressive than Japrisot's book. As an ugly and desperate forty-year-old-virgin, Michel Piccoli inverts his usual virile stance, presenting an alternately grotesque and touching image of self-loathing and frustration, with a greasy cow-lick, a lot of sweat, some hideous constrictions of the mouth muscles and a weird toddling walk, halfway between a two-year-old child and a performing bear. Piccoli makes his mark. The movie is full of startling bits like this. A slight sense of let-down may be experienced when the mystery is resolved and the end credits abruptly begin, accompanied by composer Michel Magne's surprising surf guitar score, but it's entirely possible that a wide-screen copy with the original language soundtrack would resolve this slight disappointment. Costa-Gavras (short for Konstantinos Gavras; Κωνσταντίνος Γαβράς; born 12 February 1933) is a Greek-French film director and producer, who lives and works in France. He is known for films with overt political themes, most famously the fast-paced thriller, Z (1969), but he has also made comedies. Most of his movies have been made in French; however, six were made in English: Missing (1982), Hannah K. (1983), Betrayed (1988), Music Box (1989), Mad City (1997) and Amen. (2002). He produces most of his films himself, through his production company K.G. Productions. Contents 1 Early life2 Early career3 Selected films4 Political-commercial film5 Form and style6 Other honours7 Family connections8 Filmography9 References10 External links Early life Costa-Gavras was born in Loutra Iraias (Λουτρά Ηραίας), Arcadia. His family spent the Second World War in a village in the Peloponnese, and moved to Athens after the war. His father had been a member of the Pro-Soviet branch of the Greek Resistance, and was imprisoned during the Greek Civil War. His father's Communist Party membership made it impossible for Costa-Gavras to attend university in Greece or to be granted a visa to the United States, so after high school he went to France, where he began studying law in 1951.[1] Early career In 1956, he left his university studies to study film at the French national film school, IDHEC. After film school, he apprenticed under Yves Allégret, and became an assistant director for Jean Giono and René Clair. After several further positions as first assistant director, he directed his first feature film, Compartiment Tueurs, in 1965.[2] Selected films His 1967 film Shock Troops (Un homme de trop) was entered into the 5th Moscow International Film Festival.[3] In Z (1969), an investigating judge, played by Jean-Louis Trintignant, tries to uncover the truth about the murder of a prominent leftist politician, played by Yves Montand, while government officials and the military attempt to cover up their roles. The film is a fictionalized account of the events surrounding the assassination of Greek politician Grigoris Lambrakis in 1963. It had additional resonance because, at the time of its release, Greece had been ruled for two years by the "Regime of the Colonels". Z won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.[4] Costa-Gavras and co-writer Jorge Semprún won an Edgar Award from the Mystery Writers of America for Best Film Screenplay. L'Aveu (The Confession, direction, 1970) follows the path of Artur London, a Czechoslovakian communist minister falsely arrested and tried for treason and espionage in the Slánský 'show trial' in 1952. State of Siege (1973) takes place in Uruguay under a conservative government in the early 1970s. In a plot loosely based on the case of US police official and alleged torture expert Dan Mitrione, an American embassy official (played by Yves Montand) is kidnapped by the Tupamaros, a radical leftist urban guerilla group, which interrogates him in order to reveal the details of secret American support for repressive regimes in Latin America. Missing, originally released in 1982 and based on the book The Execution Of Charles Horman, concerns an American journalist, Charles Horman (acted out in the film by John Shea), who disappeared in the bloody coup led by General Augusto Pinochet in Chile and backed by the United States in 1973. Horman's father, played by Jack Lemmon, and wife, played by Sissy Spacek, search in vain to determine his fate. Nathaniel Davis, US ambassador to Chile from 1971–1973, a version of whose character had been portrayed in the movie (under a different name), filed a US$150 million libel suit, Davis v. Costa-Gavras, 619 F. Supp. 1372 (1985), against the studio and the director, which was eventually dismissed. The film won an Oscar for Best Screenplay Adaptation and the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival. Betrayed (1988), roughly based upon the terrorist activities of American neo-Nazi and white supremacist Robert Mathews and his group The Order. In Music Box (1989), a respected Hungarian immigrant (Armin Mueller-Stahl) is accused of having commanded an Anti-Semitic death squad during World War II. His daughter, a Chicago defense attorney played by Jessica Lange, agrees to defend him at his denaturalization hearing. The film is inspired by the arrest and trial of Ukrainian immigrant John Demjanjuk and screenwriter Joe Eszterhas' realization that his father had been a member of the Hungarian Arrow Cross Party. The film won the Golden Bear at the 40th Berlin International Film Festival.[5] La Petite Apocalypse (1993) was entered into the 43rd Berlin International Film Festival.[6] Amen. (2003), was based in part on the highly controversial 1963 play, Der Stellvertreter. Ein christliches Trauerspiel (The Deputy, a Christian Tragedy), by Rolf Hochhuth. The movie alleges that Pope Pius XII was aware of the plight of the Jews in Nazi concentration camps during World War II, but failed to take public action to publicize or condemn the Holocaust. Apologists for the Vatican's role during World War II have cited Pope Pius XII's 1942 Christmas address as evidence that the Papacy and the Roman Catholic establishment did indeed condemn Nazi genocide but the relevant passage (a single short paragraph) in this address is so vague, obfuscated and non-specific as to offer little support for this claim. These issues continue to be disputed, with the Vatican thus far declining to open to historians all of its archives relating to the extent of the Pope's knowledge during World War II.[citation needed] Political-commercial film Costa-Gavras is known for merging controversial political issues with the entertainment value of commercial cinema. Law and justice, oppression, legal/illegal violence, and torture are common subjects in his work, especially relevant to his earlier films. Costa-Gavras is an expert of the “statement” picture. In most cases, the targets of Costa-Gavras's work have been right-of-center movements and regimes, including Greek conservatives in and out of the military in Z, and right-wing dictatorships that ruled much of Latin America during the height of the Cold War, as in State of Siege and Missing. In a broader sense, this emphasis continues with Amen. given its focus on the conservative leadership of the Catholic Church during the 1940s. In this political context, L'Aveu (The Confession) provides the exception, dealing as it does with oppression on the part of a Communist regime during the Stalinist period. Form and style Costa-Gavras has brought attention to international issues, some urgent, others merely problematic, and he has done this in the tradition of cinematic story-telling. Z (1969), one of his most well-known works, is an account of the undermining in the 1960s of democratic government in Greece, his homeland and place of birth. The format, however, is a mystery-thriller combination that transforms an uncomfortable history into a fast-paced story. This is a clear example of how he pours politics into plot, "bringing epic conflicts into the sort of personal conflicts we are accustomed to seeing on screen." His accounts of corruption propagated, in their essence, by European and American powers (Z, State of Siege and Missing) highlight problems buried deep in the structures of these societies, problems which he deems not everyone is comfortable addressing. The approach he adopted in L'Aveu also "subtly invited the audience to a critical look focused on structural issues, delving this time into the opposite Communist bloc." Other honours Costa-Gavras has received an honorary doctorate from School of Film Studies at the University of Thessaloniki in Greece. He was president of the Cinémathèque Française from 1982 to 1987, and again since 2007. He was interviewed extensively by The Times cultural correspondent Melinda Camber Porter and was featured prominently in her book Through Parisian Eyes: Reflections on Contemporary French Arts and Culture (1993, Da Capo Press). He received the Magritte Honorary Award at the 3rd Magritte Awards.[7] Family connections He is a first cousin of recording artist Jimmie Spheeris, filmmaker Penelope Spheeris, and musician Chris Spheeris.[8] His daughter Julie Gavras and his son Romain Gavras are also filmmakers. He is a distant relative of actor Jordan Gavaris who is best known for Orphan Black and Jasper Bartlett on the action/adventure series Unnatural History for Cartoon Network and in his latest film, The Sea of Trees.

She became the first French person to win an Academy Award, for her role in Room at the Top (1959). In her lifetime she also received a César, three BAFTAs, an Emmy, Cannes Film Festival recognition, the Silver Bear for Best Actress awards and a Golden Globe nomination. Contents 1 Early life2 Career3 Personal life4 Filmography5 Television award6 Popular culture7 See also8 References 8.1 Notes8.2 Bibliography9 External links Early life Signoret was born Simone Henriette Charlotte Kaminker in Wiesbaden, Germany, to André and Georgette (Signoret) Kaminker, as the eldest of three children, with two younger brothers. Her father, a pioneering interpreter who worked in the League of Nations, was a French-born Jewish army officer of Polish descent,[1][2] who brought the family to Neuilly-sur-Seine on the outskirts of Paris. Her mother, Georgette, from whom she acquired her stage name, was a French Catholic.[3] Signoret grew up in Paris in an intellectual atmosphere and studied English, German and Latin. After completing secondary school during the Nazi Occupation, Simone was responsible for supporting her family and forced to take work as a typist for a French collaborationist newspaper, Les nouveaux temps, run by Jean Luchaire.[4] Career During the German occupation of France, Signoret mixed with an artistic group of writers and actors who met at a café in the Saint-Germain-des-Prés quarter, Café de Flore. By this time, she had developed an interest in acting and was encouraged by her friends, including her lover, Daniel Gélin, to follow her ambition. In 1942, she began appearing in bit parts and was able to earn enough money to support her mother and two brothers as her father, who was a French patriot, had fled the country in 1940 to join General De Gaulle in England. She took her mother's maiden name for the screen to help hide her Jewish roots. Signoret's sensual features and earthy nature led to type-casting and she was often seen in roles as a prostitute. She won considerable attention in La Ronde (1950), a film which was banned briefly in New York as immoral. She won further acclaim, including an acting award from the British Film Academy, for her portrayal of another prostitute in Jacques Becker's Casque d'or (1951). She appeared in many notable films in France during the 1950s, including Thérèse Raquin (1953), directed by Marcel Carné, Les Diaboliques (1954), and The Crucible (Les Sorcières de Salem; 1956), based on Arthur Miller's The Crucible. Simone Signoret with Laurence Harvey in Room at the Top; the film established her as an international actress. In 1958, Signoret acted in the English independent film, Room at the Top (1959), which won her numerous awards including the Best Female Performance Prize at Cannes and the Academy Award for Best Actress. She was the only French cinema actress to receive an Oscar until Juliette Binoche in 1997 (Supporting Actress) and Marion Cotillard in 2008 (Best Actress), and the first woman to win the award appearing in a foreign film. She was offered films in Hollywood, but turned them down, continuing to work in France and England—notably opposite Laurence Olivier in Term of Trial (1962)—until 1965. Earning another Oscar nomination for her work on what would be Vivien Leigh's final film—Columbia Pictures' Ship of Fools, also starring Lee Marvin—Signoret appeared in a few other Hollywood films before returning to France in 1969. In 1962, Signoret translated Lillian Hellman's play The Little Foxes into French for a production in Paris that ran for six months at the Theatre Sarah-Bernhardt. She played the Regina role as well. Hellman was displeased with the production, although the translation was approved by scholars selected by Hellman.[5] Signoret's one attempt at Shakespeare, performing Lady Macbeth opposite Alec Guinness at the Royal Court Theatre in London in 1966 proved to be ill-advised, with some harsh critics; one referred to her English as "impossibly Gallic".[6] In her later years, Signoret was often criticized for gaining weight and letting her looks go, but she was never concerned with glamour, ignored the insults and continued giving finely etched performances. She won more acclaim for her portrayal of a weary madam in Madame Rosa (1977) and as an unmarried sister who unknowingly falls in love with her paralyzed brother via anonymous correspondence in I Sent a Letter to my Love (fr) (1980). Personal life Signoret's memoirs, Nostalgia Isn't What It Used To Be, were published in 1978. She also wrote a novel, Adieu Volodya, published in 1985, the year of her death. Signoret first married filmmaker Yves Allégret (1944–49), with whom she had a daughter Catherine Allégret, herself an actress. Her second marriage was to the Italian-born French actor Yves Montand in 1951, a union which lasted until her death. Signoret died of pancreatic cancer in Auteuil-Anthouillet, France, aged 64. She is buried in Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris next to her second husband.

Contents 1 Early life2 Career3 Personal life4 Filmography5 Discography6 References7 External links Early life Montand was born Ivo Livi in Monsummano Terme, Italy, to Giuseppina (née Simoni) and Giovanni Livi, a broommaker.[1][2] Giuseppina was a devout Catholic, while Giovanni held strong Communist beliefs.[1] Montand's family left for France in 1923 because of Italy's Fascist regime.[3] He grew up in Marseille, where, as a young man, he worked in his sister's beauty salon (Salon de Coiffure), and later on the docks. He began a career in show business as a music-hall singer. In 1944, he was discovered by Édith Piaf in Paris and she made him part of her act. Career Montand went on to international recognition as a singer and actor, starring in numerous films. His recognizably crooner songs, especially those about Paris, became instant classics. He was one of the most famous performers at Bruno Coquatrix's famous Paris Olympia music hall, and toured with musicians including Didi Duprat. In October 1947, he sang Mais qu’est-ce que j’ai ! at the Théâtre de l'Étoile (music by Henri Betti and lyrics by Édith Piaf). The composer of this song had him offer also sing C'est si bon he had written but Yves Montand refused. Following the success of the recording of this song by the Sœurs Étienne in 1948, he decided to record it. During his career, Montand acted in a number of American motion pictures as well as on Broadway. He was nominated for a César Award for "Best Actor" in 1980 for I comme Icare and again in 1984 for Garçon! In 1986, after his international box-office draw power had fallen off considerably, the 65-year-old Montand gave one of his most memorable performances, as the scheming uncle in the two-part film: Jean de Florette, co-starring Gérard Depardieu, and Manon des Sources, co-starring Emmanuelle Béart. The film was a worldwide critical hit and raised Montand's profile in the US, where he made an appearance on Late Night with David Letterman.[4] Personal life In 1951, he married Simone Signoret, and they co-starred in several films throughout their careers. The marriage was, by all accounts, fairly harmonious, lasting until her death in 1985, although Montand had a number of well-publicized affairs, notably with Marilyn Monroe, with whom he starred in one of her last films, Let's Make Love. Montand's only child, Valentin, his son by his second wife, Carole Amiel, was born in 1988. In a paternity suit that rocked France, another woman accused Montand of being the father of her daughter and went to court to obtain a DNA sample from him. Montand refused, but the woman persisted after his death. In a court ruling that made international headlines, the woman won the right to have Montand exhumed and a sample taken.[5] The results indicated that he was probably not the girl's biological father.[6] Signoret and Montand had a home in Autheuil-Authouillet, Normandy, where the main village street is named after him, In his later years he maintained a home in St Paul de Vence, Provence until his death from a heart attack.[7] In an interview, Jean-Jacques Beineix said, "[H]e died on the set [of IP5: The Island of Pachyderms]... On the very last day, after his very last shot. It was the very last night and we were doing retakes. He finished what he was doing and then he just died. And the film tells the story of an old man who dies from a heart attack, which is the same thing that happened!"[8] Montand is interred next to his first wife, Simone Signoret, in Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris. In 2004, Catherine Allegret, the daughter of Montand's first wife Simone Signoret, told in her biography "Un Monde a L'envers" (A World Upside Down), that she had been sexually abused by her stepfather since the age of 5 and that he assaulted her well into adulthood.[9] Filmography Yves Montand as Formula One driver Jean-Pierre Sarti in Grand Prix, 1966 Year Title Role Director 1946 Star Without Light Pierre Marcel Blistène Gates of the Night Diego Marcel Carné 1948 L'idole Fontana Alexander Esway 1950 Souvenirs perdus (fr) Raoul Christian-Jaque 1951 Paris Is Always Paris cameo appearance Luciano Emmer 1953 Le salaire de la peur Mario Henri-Georges Clouzot 1954 Tempi Nostri Vasco Alessandro Blasetti and Paul Paviot 1955 Heroes and Sinners Michel Rivière Yves Ciampi Napoléon François Joseph Lefebvre Sacha Guitry Marguerite de la nuit Monsieur Léon Claude Autant-Lara 1956 The Wolves Ricuccio Giuseppe De Santis 1957 Les Sorcières de Salem John Proctor Raymond Rouleau La grande strada azzurra Squarciò Gillo Pontecorvo 1958 Premier mai (fr) Jean Meunier Luis Saslavsky 1959 Legge, La Matteo Brigante Jules Dassin 1960 Let's Make Love Clement/Dumas George Cukor 1961 Sanctuary the candy man Tony Richardson Goodbye Again Roger Demarest Anatole Litvak 1962 My Geisha Paul Robaix Jack Cardiff 1963 Le Joli Mai the narrator Chris Marker 1965 Compartiment tueurs Inspector Grazziani Costa-Gavras 1966 La guerre est finie Diego Mora Alain Resnais Is Paris Burning?

He won the Best Actor Award at the 1969 Cannes Film Festival as well as the Best Actor Award at the César Awards 2013. Contents 1 Life and career2 Personal life3 Selected filmography4 Awards5 References6 External links Life and career Trintignant in A Man and a Woman Trintignant was born in Piolenc, Vaucluse, France, the son of Claire (née Tourtin) and Raoul Trintignant, an industrialist.[1] At the age of twenty, Trintignant moved to Paris to study drama, and made his theatrical debut in 1951 going on to be seen as one of the most gifted French actors of the post-war era. After touring in the early 1950s in several theater productions, his first motion picture appearance came in 1955 and the following year he gained stardom with his performance opposite Brigitte Bardot in Roger Vadim's And God Created Woman. Trintignant’s acting was interrupted for several years by mandatory military service. After serving in Algiers, he returned to Paris and resumed his work in film. He had the leading male role in the classic A Man and a Woman, which at the time was the most successful French film ever screened in the foreign market. In Italy, he was always dubbed into Italian, and his work stretched into collaborations with renowned Italian directors, including Sergio Corbucci in The Great Silence, Valerio Zurlini in Violent Summer and The Desert of the Tartars, Ettore Scola in La terrazza, Bernardo Bertolucci in The Conformist, and Dino Risi in the cult film The Easy Life. Throughout the 1970s, Trintignant starred in numerous films and in 1983 he made his first English language feature film, Under Fire. Following this, he starred in François Truffaut's final film, Confidentially Yours, and reprised his best-known role in the sequel A Man and a Woman: 20 Years Later. In 1994, he starred in Krzysztof Kieślowski's last film, Three Colors: Red. Though he takes an occasional film role, he has, as of late, been focusing essentially on his stage work. After a 14-year gap, Trintignant came back on screen for Michael Haneke's film Amour.[2] Haneke had sent Trintignant the script, which had been written specifically for him.[3] Trintignant said that he chooses which films he works in on the basis of the director, and said of Haneke that "he has the most complete mastery of the cinematic discipline, from technical aspects like sound and photography to the way he handles actors".[3] Personal life Trintignant in 2007. Trintignant comes from a wealthy family. He is the nephew of race car driver, Louis Trintignant, who was killed in 1933 while practicing on the Péronne racetrack in Picardy.[4] Another uncle, Maurice Trintignant (1917–2005), was a Formula One driver who twice won the Monaco Grand Prix as well as the 24 hours of Le Mans. Raised in and around automobile racing, Jean-Louis Trintignant was the natural choice of film director Claude Lelouch for the starring role of race car driver in the 1966 film, A Man and a Woman. He suffered a leg injury from a motorcycle accident in June 2007.[5] His first wife was actress Stéphane Audran. His second wife, Nadine Marquand, was also an actress as well as a screenwriter and director. They had three children: Vincent Trintignant, Pauline (who died of crib death in 1969) and Marie Trintignant (21 January 1962 – 1 August 2003). At the age of 17, Marie performed in La terrazza alongside her father and later became a successful actress in her own right. She was killed at the age of 41 by her boyfriend, singer Bertrand Cantat, in a hotel room in Vilnius, Lithuania. Trintignant is good friends with Anouk Aimée. It was he who recommended Aimée to film director Claude Lelouch for the female lead in A Man and a Woman.

The film was personally produced by Walt Disney through Walt Disney Productions, directed by Richard Fleischer, and stars Kirk Douglas, James Mason, Paul Lukas and Peter Lorre.[2] It was also the first feature-length Disney film to be distributed by Buena Vista Distribution. The film is adapted from Jules Verne's 19th-century novel Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea. It is considered an early precursor of the steampunk genre.[3] Contents 1 Plot2 Cast3 Production4 Reception 5 Record albums 6 Home media7 Remake8 See also9 References 10 External links Plot In 1868 rumors of a sea monster attacking ships in the Pacific Ocean have created apprehension and fear among sailors, disrupting shipping lanes. The U.S. government invites Professor Pierre M. Aronnax (Paul Lukas) and his assistant, Conseil (Peter Lorre), to join an expedition to prove or disprove the monster's existence. On board the frigate with them is the cocky master harpooner Ned Land (Kirk Douglas). After months of searching, the "monster" is spotted. After the warship fires its heavy cannons, the monster turns and attacks the frigate, crippling it. Ned and Aronnax are thrown overboard, as is a lifeboat, and Conseil jumps in after Aronnax to save him. Now helpless, the frigate drifts silently and no one aboard answers when the overboard passengers cry out for help. The three drift in the ocean, eventually coming upon a strange-looking metal vessel. They realize the "monster" is actually a man-made "submerging boat" that appears deserted. Inside, they find a large viewing port amidships and watch a strange underwater funeral procession. Ned, Aronnax and Conseil are spotted, and as they attempt to leave in their lifeboat, the crew returns to their submarine and capture the castaways. The captain introduces himself as Nemo (James Mason), master of the Nautilus. He returns Ned and Conseil to the deck, while offering Aronnax, whose name he recognizes from Aronnax's scientific work and research, the chance to stay. When Nemo discovers that Aronnax is willing to die with his companions, he finds out what he needed to know and allows Ned and Conseil to stay aboard. Nemo takes Aronnax to the penal colony island of Rura Penthe. Nemo reveals he was once a prisoner there, as were many of his crew. The prisoners are loading an ammunition ship. The Nautilus later rams and sinks the ship at sea, destroying its cargo and killing its crew. An anguished Nemo tells Arronax that his actions have saved thousands from death in war; he also discloses that this "hated nation" tortured his wife and son to death while attempting to force from him the secrets of his advanced work. Ned discovers the coordinates of Nemo's secret base, Vulcania, and releases messages in bottles containing the island's isolated location, hoping somebody will find and free them from captivity. Off the coast of New Guinea, the Nautilus becomes stranded on a reef. Ned is surprised when Nemo allows him to go ashore with Conseil, ostensibly to collect specimens. Ned goes off alone to explore avenues of escape. While kneeling at a pool to drink, he sees a number of human skulls on stakes. Realizing his danger, Ned runs for his life and rejoins Conseil as they are chased back to the Nautilus by cannibals. Despite remaining aground, Nemo is unconcerned, and the cannibals are repelled from the ship by electrical charges through the outer hull. Nemo is furious with Ned for not following his orders and confines him to the submarine's brig. A warship approaches, firing on the Nautilus. It slides off the reef and down into the depths, where it attracts the attention of a giant squid. An electric hull charge fails to repel the creature, so Nemo and his men surface during a violent storm to dislodge the beast. Nemo is quickly caught in one of the squid's tentacles. Ned, having escaped from captivity during the struggle, harpoons the creature, killing it, and jumps to Nemo's rescue, saving his captor from drowning as the dead squid sinks away. As a result, Nemo has a change of heart and decides to make peace with the outside world. As the Nautilus nears Vulcania, Nemo finds the island surrounded by warships, whose marines are converging on his hidden base in an interior lagoon. As Nemo goes ashore, Ned attempts to identify himself as the author of the bottled messages. Aronnax realizes this and becomes furious, recognizing that Nemo will soon destroy all evidence of his discoveries. Nemo triggers a time bomb in his large complex but is badly wounded from a bullet to his back while returning to the Nautilus. After haphazardly navigating the submarine away from Vulcania, Nemo announces he will be "taking the Nautilus down for the last time". Nemo's crew declare they will accompany their captain in death. Aronnax, Conseil, and Ned are confined to their cabins. The Nautilus' crew also retreat to their cabins at Nemo's instructions. Ned breaks loose and manages to surface the Nautilus, hitting a reef in the process, causing the boat to begin flooding. Nemo staggers to his grand salon's viewing port, and as he looks into the depths of his beloved ocean he succumbs to his fatal rifle shot wound. Aronnax tries to retrieve his journal, which contains an account of their voyage, but the urgency of their escape obliges Ned to knock him unconscious and carry him out. From the Nautilus' skiff, the companions witness Vulcania destroyed by an enormous explosion, and Ned apologizes to Aronnax for hitting him. As the now adrift Nautilus is swamped, it disappears beneath the waves, as Nemo's last words to Aronnax echo: "There is hope for the future. And when the world is ready for a new and better life, all this will someday come to pass, in God's good time". Cast Dinner aboard the Nautilus.

The film presented many other challenges, as well. The famous giant squid attack sequence had to be entirely re-shot, as it was originally filmed as taking place at dusk and in a calm sea.[6] [Note 1] The sequence was filmed again, this time taking place at night and during a huge gale, both to increase the drama and to better hide the cables and other mechanical workings of the animatronic squid.[7] Cost overruns during production made the film very expensive for a Disney production, although by no means as expensive as other recent releases: Joan of Arc (1948) had cost $4.6 million; Quo Vadis (1951) had an estimated budget of $7.6 million.[8] Reception The Nautilus as envisioned by Harper Goff for the 1954 Walt Disney film. Upon the film's original release, The New York Times film critic Bosley Crowther gave the film a generally positive review by stating that, "As fabulous and fantastic as anything he has ever done in cartoons is Walt Disney's "live action" movie made from Jules Verne's '20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.' Turned out in CinemaScope and color, it is as broad, fictitiously, as it is long (128 minutes), and should prove a sensation—at least with the kids."[9] In his controversial 1967 biography The Disney Version, the usually prickly critic Richard Schickel, stated that James Mason was "superbly cast as the mad inventor Captain Nemo".[10] Audiences remember it primarily for its giant-squid battle sequence as well as the Nautilus itself and James Mason's portrayal of Nemo.[11] The film currently holds an 89% approval rating at the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, with the consensus being: "One of Disney's finest live-action adventures, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea brings Jules Verne's classic sci-fi tale to vivid life, and features an awesome giant squid."[12] The film was also highly praised for the performances of the leading actors.[13] This was the first time that major international stars such as Kirk Douglas, James Mason, and Peter Lorre had appeared in a Disney film, although Robert Newton, a well-known actor in British films, had played Long John Silver in Disney's Treasure Island (1950), and Richard Todd, another well-known star of British films, had appeared in a Disney Technicolor live-action version of The Story of Robin Hood and His Merrie Men (1952). Mason especially was singled out for his performance of Captain Nemo. Many people who had first seen him on-screen in the film identify him most strongly with this role.[14][15] Modern-day film critic Steve Biodrowski said that the film is "far superior to the majority of genre efforts from the period (or any period, for that matter), with production design and technical effects that have dated hardly at all." Biodrowski also added that the film "may occasionally succumb to some of the problems inherent in the source material (the episodic nature does slow the pace), but the strengths far outweigh the weaknesses, making this one of the greatest science-fiction films ever made."[16] Disneyland used the original sets as a walk-through attraction from 1955 to 1966. Walt Disney World Resort's Magic Kingdom also had a dark ride named 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea: Submarine Voyage from 1971 to 1994 which consisted of a submarine ride, complete with the giant squid attack. For this ride, voice artist Peter Renaday stood in for James Mason in the role of Captain Nemo.[17] In 1994, a walkthrough attraction at Disneyland Paris, named Les Mystères du Nautilus, opened,[18] and a dark ride at Tokyo DisneySea was created in 2001.[19] 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea received positive reviews from critics, and was the second highest grossing film of the year (behind White Christmas), earning $8 million in box office attendance in North America[20] and has become a notable classic film of the Disney corporation. Awards and nominations The film won two Academy Awards and was nominated for one more.[21] Academy Awards (1954) Won: Best Art Direction – Color (John Meehan, Emile Kuri)Won: Best Special Effects (John Hench, Joshua Meador)Nominated: Best Film Editing (Elmo Williams) The film's primary art designer, Harper Goff, who designed the Nautilus, was not a member of the Art Directors Union in 1954 and therefore, under a bylaw within the Academy of Motion Pictures, he was unable to receive his Academy Award for Art Direction.[22] American Film Institute recognition AFI's 100 Years... 100 Movies - Nominated[23]AFI's 100 Years...100 Thrills - Nominated[24] Record albums Rather than an authentic soundtrack recording of the film's score or dialogue, two vinyl studio cast record albums were released to coincide with the film's first two releases. Both albums contained condensed and heavily altered versions of the film's script without the usage of any of the film's cast for character voices. In addition, both albums were narrated by Ned Land as opposed to Aronnax, who narrated the film and the original novel. Neither album mentioned Nemo as actually being "cracked" (i.e. insane), as the film does, and considerably sanitized the character by omitting any mention of him killing anyone and even having him sing sea chanties with his crew. The albums also had Nemo surviving at the end and releasing Ned, Arronax, and Conseil out of gratitude for their saving his life.[25] In this version, Ned, Aronnax and Consel were not shipwrecked because the Nautilus rammed the ship they were on, but because a hurricane came up.[26] The first album was issued in 1954 in conjunction with the film's original release, and starred William Redfield as the voice of Ned. This album, a book-and-record set, was issued as part of RCA Victor's Little Nipper series on two 45-RPM records.[27] The second album, released by Disneyland Records in 1963 in conjunction with the film's first re-release,[28] was issued on one 331⁄3 RPM 12-inch LP with no accompanying booklet and no liner notes – the usual practice with most Disneyland label albums. It contained much more of the film's plot, but with many of the same alterations as the first album, so this recording was technically a remake of the earlier one. The cast for the 1963 album was uncredited. Neither album listed the film's credits or made any mention of the film's cast. A single for the film's most memorable song "A Whale of a Tale", written by Norman Gimbel and Al Hoffman and sung by Kirk Douglas, was also released in 1954 under the Decca Children's Series label. The song "And the Moon Grew Brighter and Brighter", which Douglas had sung in the movie Man Without a Star (written by Lou Singer and Jimmy Kennedy), was the B-side. Both songs can be found on the 2008 digital release of the film's soundtrack.[29] In the film, Johann Sebastian Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor is played by Nemo on the Nautilus's organ, but James Mason's playing is actually dubbed by an anonymous organist.

An HD version was released on iTunes.[32] Remake On January 6, 2009, Variety reported that a remake entitled 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea: Captain Nemo was being planned with Joseph McGinty Nichol, a.k.a. "McG", attached to direct. The film serves as an origin story for the central character, Captain Nemo, as he builds his warship, the Nautilus.[33] McG has remarked that it will be "much more in keeping with the spirit of the novel" than Richard Fleischer's film, in which it will reveal "what Aronnax is up to and the becoming of Captain Nemo, and how the man became at war with war itself." It was written by Bill Marsilli, with Justin Marks and Randall Wallace brought in to do rewrites.[34] The film was to be produced by Sean Bailey with McG's Wonderland Sound and Vision.[35] McG once suggested that he wanted Will Smith for the Captain Nemo role, but he has reportedly turned down the part.[36][37] As a second possible choice, McG had mentioned Sam Worthington, whom he worked with on Terminator Salvation, though they did not ever discuss it seriously. The project was later shelved in November 2009 with McG backing out of directing.[38] During the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con, director David Fincher announced plans of directing 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea for Walt Disney Pictures based on a script by Scott Z. Burns.[39] While Fincher was wrapping up The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (2011), it was speculated that 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea would enter principal photography by late 2012.[40] In the meantime, Fincher began courting Brad Pitt to play the role of Ned Land while the film was kept on hold.[41] However, in February 2013, it was announced that Pitt had officially turned down the role.[42] In April 2013, it was announced that the Australian government will provide a one-off incentive of $20 million in order to secure the production.[43] Despite this, the film was put on hold again the following month due to complications in casting a lead.[44] On July 17, 2013, Fincher dropped out of the film to direct the adaptation of Gone Girl.[45] Fincher revealed in an interview that he left the film because he wanted Channing Tatum for Ned Land, but Disney wanted Chris Hemsworth for the role.[46][47] Additionally, the money originally allocated for the production of this film was redirected towards Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales.[48] ebay3257
