Jean-Louis Xavier Trintignant ({{IPA|fr|ʒɑ̃ lwi tʁɛ̃tiɲɑ̃}}; 11 December 1930 – 17 June 2022) was a French actor. He made his theatrical debut in 1951, and went on to be regarded as one of the best French dramatic actors of the post-war era. He starred in many classic films of European cinema, and worked with many prominent auteur directors, including Roger Vadim, Costa-Gavras, Claude Lelouch, Claude Chabrol, Bernardo Bertolucci, Éric Rohmer, François Truffaut, Krzysztof Kieślowski, and Michael Haneke.

He made a critical and commercial breakthrough in And God Created Woman (1956), followed by a starmaking romantic turn in A Man and a Woman (1966). He won the Silver Bear for Best Actor at the 1968 Berlin International Film Festival for his performance in The Man Who Lies and the Best Actor Award at the 1969 Cannes Film Festival for Costa-Gavras's Z. Trintignant's other notable films include The Great Silence (1968), My Night at Maud's (1969), The Conformist (1970), Three Colours: Red (1994), and The City of Lost Children (1995). He won the 2013 César Award for Best Actor for his role in Michael Haneke's Amour.

Early life

Trintignant was born on 11 December 1930{{cite encyclopedia | title=Jean-Louis Trintignant | encyclopedia=Encyclopædia Britannica | url=https://www.britannica.com/biography/Jean-Louis-Trintignant | access-date=17 June 2022 |date=7 December 2021 |others=The editors of Encyclopædia Britannica}} in Piolenc, Vaucluse.{{cite news|url = https://www.nytimes.com/2022/06/17/movies/jean-louis-trintignant-dead.html|title = Jean-Louis Trintignant, Star of Celebrated European Films, Dies at 91|newspaper = The New York Times|last = Kandell|first = Jonathan|date = 17 June 2022|accessdate = 17 June 2022|url-access = limited}} He had a brother four years older. During World War II, his father joined the resistance against the Nazi regime by aiding Jews, and his mother began an affair with a Nazi officer. This horizontal collaboration affected Jean-Louis his entire life.

He grew up with the intention of studying law and enrolled in Aix-Marseille University. However, he soon discovered an interest in acting and moved to Paris at the age of 20 to study drama, making his theatrical debut in 1951.{{cite news|url=https://www.lemonde.fr/en/summer-reads/article/2022/08/14/amour-theater-family-jean-louis-trintignant-s-last-breaths_5993546_183.html|title='Amour,' theater, family: Jean-Louis Trintignant's last breaths|date=14 August 2022 |publisher=LaMorde}}

Career

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.{{cite news|url = https://www.bbc.com/news/world-61846894|title = French screen icon Jean-Louis Trintignant dies aged 91|work = BBC News|last = FitzGerald|first = James|date = 17 June 2022|accessdate = 18 June 2022}} After serving in Algiers, he returned to Paris and resumed his work in film. He had the leading male role in Claude Lelouch's film A Man and a Woman (Un homme et une femme, 1966), which was the most commercially successful French film internationally for some years.

In Italy, he was always dubbed into Italian, and he worked with 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 Easy Life.

Throughout the 1970s, Trintignant starred in many films, including the English-language films The Outside Man in 1971 and Under Fire in 1983. 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 (Un homme et une femme, 20 ans dejà, 1986).{{cite news | last=Attanasio | first=Paul | title='A Man and a Woman 20 Years Later' | newspaper=The Washington Post | date=9 October 1986 | url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/style/longterm/movies/videos/amanandawoman20yearslaterpgattanasio_a0ad5e.htm | access-date=18 June 2022}}

In 1994, he starred in Krzysztof Kieślowski's final film, Three Colors: Red. For the remainder of his career, he took an occasional film role but focused on stage work. After a 14-year gap, Trintignant came back to the screen for Michael Haneke's film Amour.[http://www.huffingtonpost.fr/2012/05/20/cannes-2012-amour-jean-louis-trintignant_n_1531078.html Cannes 2012, "Amour": le retour à la lumière de Jean-Louis Trintignant], Huffington Post in cooperation with Le Monde, 20 May 2012. Haneke sent Trintignant the screenplay, which had been written specifically for him.{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/04/movies/michael-haneke-directs-amour-with-jean-louis-trintignant.html?pagewanted=all |title=Michael Haneke Directs Amour, With Jean-Louis Trintignant |access-date=30 December 2012 |newspaper=New York Times|date=2 November 2012 |last1=Rohter |first1=Larry }} Trintignant said he chose film projects 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". He worked with Haneke again in 2017 when he starred in Happy End.

On 20 July 2018, Trintignant announced his retirement from cinema,{{Cite web |last= |first= |title=Turkey Telegraph |url=https://turkeytelegraph.com/ |access-date=2025-01-31 |website=www.turkeytelegraph.com |language=en}} but, in March 2019, he accepted a role in Claude Lelouch's film The Best Years of a Life (Les plus belles annees d'une vie), a follow-up to A Man and a Woman and its sequel A Man and a Woman: 20 Years Later.{{cite web | title=The Best Years of a Life | website=Film at Lincoln Center | date=5 March 2020 | url=https://www.filmlinc.org/films/the-best-years-of-a-life/ | access-date=18 June 2022}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.francetvinfo.fr/culture/people/video-claude-lelouch-retrouve-anouk-aimee-et-jean-louis-trintignant-pour-l-epilogue-d-un-homme-et-une-femme_3231329.html|title = VIDEO.

Personal life and death

Trintignant came from a wealthy family. He was the nephew of racecar driver Louis Trintignant, who was killed in 1933 while practising on the Péronne racetrack in Picardy.{{cite web | last=Snellman | first=Leif | title=1933 GRAND PRIX SEASON – 1933 Avusrennen (Avus grand prix), 1933 Picardie Grand Prix (Grand Prix de Picardie), 1933 Eifelrennen (Eifel Grand Prix), 1933 Targa Florio | website=Elisa – Suomalaiset tietoliikenne- ja viihtymisen palvelut | date=21 May 1933 | url=http://www.kolumbus.fi/leif.snellman/gp3306.htm | access-date=18 June 2022 | archive-date=1 August 2020 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200801231449/http://www.kolumbus.fi/leif.snellman/gp3306.htm | url-status=dead }} 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. Jean-Louis himself was an enthusiastic amateur rally driver and competed in a number of high-level rallies in the 1970s and 1980s, including several rounds of the World Rally Championship;{{Cite web|url=https://www.ewrc-results.com/profile/38759-jean-louis-trintignant/|title=Jean-Louis Trintignant - rally profile eWRC-results.com|website=eWRC-results.com}} he finished first in his class in the 1981 Monte Carlo Rally.{{Cite web|url=https://www.ewrc-results.com/final/1592-rallye-automobile-de-monte-carlo-1981/?ct=212|title = Final results Rallye Automobile de Monte-Carlo 1981}} Raised in and around automobile racing, Trintignant was the natural choice of film director Claude Lelouch for the starring role of a racecar driver in the 1966 film A Man and a Woman. He suffered a leg injury from a motorbike accident in June 2007.{{cite web |url=http://www.enterinside.com/browse/news/3/118435/ |title=Enter Inside – RSS – French actor Jean-Louis Trintignant in hospital (AFP) |access-date=11 November 2009 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110710193815/http://www.enterinside.com/browse/news/3/118435/ |archive-date=10 July 2011 }}

His first wife was actress Stéphane Audran. His second wife, Nadine Marquand, was an actress, screenwriter, and director. They had three children: Vincent, Pauline (who died of crib death in 1969), and Marie Trintignant (21 January 1962 – 1 August 2003). At age 17 Marie performed in La terrazza alongside her father and later became a successful actress. She was killed at age 41 by her boyfriend, rock musician Bertrand Cantat, in a hotel room in Vilnius, Lithuania.{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-24991534|title=French killer Bertrand Cantat's controversial comeback|date=19 November 2013|access-date=20 November 2013|first=Hugh|last=Schofield|publisher=BBC News}}
