Julie Depardieu: the best role has not been played yet

The talented, bright French actress Julie Depardieu has long been associated with the audience exclusively with the name of her father - the famous actor Gerard Depardieu. It was a long time before the public finally realized that Julie was an independent artist who was not warming herself in the shadow of her father's glory and was building her brilliant creative career exclusively with her own work.

Unhappy childhood in a star family

Julie Depardieu, whose photo can be seen in this article, was born into a star family of actors Gerard and Elizabeth Depardieu. The date of birth of the actress is June 18, 1973.

The family seemed to be quite happy, even happy. However, it was hardly possible to name the focus of Depardieu as a model of family harmony and coziness. According to Julie, the father avoided the society of his own children and his wife, could leave them alone, for example, at Christmas, and leave in an unknown direction.

On holidays, he did not even open gifts, in every possible way showing disrespect to his relatives. The complexity of children's relationships with their father contributed to the formation in the mind of the daughter of an extremely negative image of the closest person.

Debut in the cinema

Nevertheless, Julie's debut in the movie took place in the film, where Gerard played the main role. But she still denies the father's involvement in the fact that acting became her profession. So, in fact, after graduating from school, Julie Depardieu entered the university and began seriously studying philosophy. However, getting acquainted during the filming of "Colonel Schaber" acquaintances in the acting environment could no longer disappear from her life forever. Soon she received from Jose Dian a new proposal - to play in the movie called "Machine". He was followed by the series "The Count of Monte Cristo", where again the partner of Julie on the set was an unloved father.

Julie Depardieu, whose biography reveals far from cloudless childhood paintings, does not hide her dislike and even disdain for her father. She was never able to forgive him filled with negativity and experiences of family life, openly declaring this in an interview. Moreover, she with great skepticism refers to various kinds of acting dynasties and claims that she became an actress only because she suddenly liked to play.

Start of professional acting

To seriously engage in acting, the young woman left her studies at the university and began to actively withdraw in all the paintings in which she was called. Not using her father's patronage, she resolutely overcame all obstacles and repeatedly received prestigious film awards for her works. According to her, it did not occur to her for a long time to call herself an actress, it happened only a few years after the beginning of serious work in the cinema.

Julie's full-fledged debut as an actress of the first plan took place in 1998 in the film Midnight Exam. It was in this film that the deep talent of the beginning artist opened. The subtle psychological work that was done by her and the director was appreciated by critics. After this role, Julie Depardieu's career went uphill, and her name became less and less associated with the star father.

Musical experience

Julie is creative, constantly looking for nature. She does not stop there, she constantly learns new, unexplored possibilities of artistic activity. So, 1998 for her became not only a year of breakthrough in the great French cinema, but also an attempt to prove herself in the vocal plan. Julie appeared in the role of a singer, recording a musical plate in a duet with the famous singer Mark Lavoian. And this experience was very successful. Julie once again confirmed to the world her exceptional giftedness.

The next successful work of Julie Depardieu in the movie was the work in the film "Love Me." It was followed by a number of television projects, as well as a new meeting on the set with the fateful director José Diane. In her film called "Zaid" Julie played with her own brother.

Brightness and comedic talent

Significant success Julie brought the film duet with the popular actress Audrey Tautou, held on the set of the film "God is big, I'm small," in which Depardieu showed a bright comedic talent.

The first "Cesar" award went to her in 2002 for one of the roles in the tape "Lily's Baby". 2004 was special for Julie Depardieu: the filmography of the actress was replenished with a new bright film, she shone in a comedy film called "Podium". From that moment it became clear that Depardieu chooses roles not based on the principle of their status, but based on the emotional closeness of the character and his originality. Therefore, bright Julie can be seen in an episodic role, but she will definitely remember the audience as if the whole film was dedicated to her.

In 2008, the collection of awards actress replenished with a new "Cesar" for the best supporting role. This time, the collaboration with the director Claude Miller in the framework of the filming of the film "Family Secret" brings success to her.

Currently, Julie is married to a French singer Philippe Catherine, in 2011 the couple had a son, Billy, later the birth of another child, who was named Alfred. The actress continues to lead an active creative way of life, and believes that her best role has not yet been played.
