BIOGRAPHY OF JEAN DUJARDIN
Actor. Little Jean, the youngest of four children, is a maladjusted child. At an early age, ‘Jean la Lune’, as they call him at school because of his head always in the clouds, has difficulty writing and reading. On the other hand, his extraordinary imitations of all the teachers make his classmates laugh. The parents, dismayed at the idea of an uncertain future for their son, send him to work as a blacksmith in the small family business. The work of the worker is short-lived, Edmond leaves for military service. Even in the barracks, thanks to hilarious imitations, he becomes the darling of fellow soldiers. The way for him is now clear: he intends to become an actor. As a self-taught person, he goes through all the necessary steps: he starts with shows in suburban bars and theaters, and then ends up in small parts on TV. In 1995 together with Bruno Salomone, Eric Collado, Emmanuel Joucla and Eric Massot, all from the “Carré Blanc” theater, he founded the comedy group “Nous C Nous” and the following year they took part in the French talent show, “Graines de star” . His notoriety grew even more in 1999. From that year, until 2003, he was the protagonist of the TV series, “Un gars une fille”, by Guy A. Lepage. 2003 also determines his entry into the cinema with “Toutes les filles sont folles”, by Pascale Pouzadoux. From this moment on he collects one success after another, remaining known, however, only in France. Again, it’s the imitations that make it popular. The losers are ‘James Bond’, ‘taken as a model’ in “OSS 117: Le Caire, nid d’espion” (2007) and in “OSS 117: Rio ne répond plus” (2009), both by Michel Hazanavicius. Working for this director benefited him especially in the following year, with the silent and black and white film “The Artist”, this time internationally successful. 2011 saw him winner of a BAFTA and the award for best male performer at the 64th edition of the Cannes Film Festival. Thanks to “The Artist” he is one of the five French actors to have won an Academy Award and the first, from beyond the Alps, to win the one for best actor in 2012. He also receives the Golden Globe 2012 (comedy / musical section) as best actor. But, ironically, success, this time, does not smile at his homeland: he only gets a nomination for the 2012 César Prize. Also in 2012 “Gli infideli” is released, where he is among the producers and directors on a par with Hazanavicius.
