Anouk Aimée
20 films
Ginette Vincendeau calls Claude Lelouch's best films simple populist narratives and says what holds them up is experienced performers able to suggest depth in stock characters; the instance she gives is Jean-Louis Trintignant with Anouk Aimée in A Man and a Woman. Melanie McGrath, on another film, is harsh about a guest appearance of hers: she finds the cameos she and Johnny Depp supply ostentatious and says they add to the general air of hopelessness about the film. In that same sentence Vincendeau counts off further instances from Lelouch, Lino Ventura with Françoise Fabian, and Jean-Paul Belmondo in a Victor Hugo adaptation of 1995. Two Federico Fellini films stand in her catalogue, 8½ and La Dolce Vita.
