Who was one of the greats of the new French wave, who starred in films such as "Man and Woman" and "Love", died after a decades-long career, during which he won the acting award at the Cannes and Berlin Film Festival, and even the Cesar Award


Jean-Louis Trentinian, considered one of the greatest players to ever leave France, passed away yesterday (Friday) at the age of 91.

Trentinian was one of the greatest actors known to French cinema, and he was one of the stars of French New Wave films.

Throughout his decades-long career, during which he has starred in more than 130 films, he has worked with some of the biggest names in the film world, including Bernardo Bertolucci (in "The Conformist," which was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film), Kaz Will wash Kieslowski (in "Red", the first part of the Polish director's "Three Colors" trilogy), Claude Lalouche (in "Man and Woman", which won the Palme d'Or at the 1966 Cannes Film Festival and the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film), and François Truffaut.


Another notable role for Trentinian was in the 1969 political thriller "Z", for which he received the Best Actor award at the Cannes Film Festival.

A year earlier he had won the same award at the Berlin Film Festival, for his role in "The Man Who Lies."

One of his most notable roles was a decade ago, in 2012, when he starred in Michael Hanke's "Love," a film that won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival and the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film.

In the film, Trentinian portrayed an elderly man whose wife (played by Emanuel Riva, who was nominated for an Oscar for her role) had a stroke - and the consequences of the incident on their relationship.

He won the Cesar Award (French Oscar) for the role.

He knew the personal life of a loser, having lost his daughter Pauline at just nine months old and his daughter Marie, an esteemed actress who was herself nominated for several Cesar Awards, who was murdered by her partner in 2003.

He announced his retirement in 2018, after revealing that he had prostate cancer, a disease he decided not to fight.
