Anouk Aimée was born in Paris, France. She is a French film actress, who has appeared in 70 films since 1947, having begun her film career at age 14. In her early years she studied acting and dance besides her regular education. Although most of her films were French, she also made a number of films in Spain, Great Britain, Italy and Germany, along with some American productions. She subsequently acted in Fellini's 8½ , Jacques Demy’s Lola, George Cukor’s Justine, Bernardo Bertolucci’s Tragedy of a Ridiculous Man and Robert Altman’s Ready to Wear. Because of her acting in A Man and a Woman, for which she was Oscar nominated, the film "virtually reignited the lush on-screen romance in an era of skeptical modernism," and brought her international fame. She won the 1967 Golden Globe Award for Best Actress - Motion Picture Drama and the Award for Best Actress at the 1980 Cannes Film Festival. In 2002 she received an honorary César Award, France's national film award.
