Description
Béatrice Dalle (born 19 December 1964) is a French actress. She was working as a model when she met filmmaker Jean-Jacques Beineix. Beineix cast her in the lead role in the 1986 film 37°2 le matin (later released in the United Kingdom and United States under the title Betty Blue). She went on to appear in a series of major roles in French films, including the 1989 film Chimère, which was entered into the 1989 Cannes Film Festival. She is seen in a feature role in the 1991 music video Move To Memphis by Norwegian band a-ha. She made her debut to American audiences in Jim Jarmusch's Night on Earth in 1991. In 1997, she was cast in The Blackout, her first film made in the United States. In 2001, Dalle appeared in the controversial film, Trouble Every Day, in which she played a vampire. She also starred in À l'intérieur, in which she played a cruel psychopath stalking a pregnant woman. Her 2014 début theatre performance directed by David Bobée as Lucretia in Victor Hugo's Lucretia Borgia a beautiful incestuous poisoner, child of an Avignon Pope and a prostitute was exceptional.
