I’m just glad he’s starring in a movie called Glenn: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0934446/
🙂
I found two others without much trouble:
François-Eric Gendron was in Rohmer’s “Boyfriends and Girlfriends,” and also played Insp. Marc Gautier in a Parisian-set 1995 episode of Ms. Lansbury’s show entitled “Murder a la Mode.”
Also, Michel Voletti was in Rohmer’s “A Tale of Winter” as well as the partly Parisian-set Season 4 premiere of “Jessica Fletcher” (as the series is eponymously named in Finland). The episode is called “A Fashionable Way to Die.”
Not quite the same, but Arielle Dombasle starred in several Rohmer’s as well MIAMI VICE and THE RED SHOE DIARIES.
For that matter, is Patrick Bauchau the only person to appear in an Eric Rohmer film and a James Bond film? There’s gotta be somebody else, but I don’t know who.
To say nothing of his turn on THE PRETENDER, bringing to that silly show a grace and gravity it really didn’t deserve.
He’s also in an Emmanuelle film, an Alan Rudolph film and an episode of Columbo.
And don’t forget he was also the police inspector in Dario Argento’s Phenomena!
Yes, but as I once pointed out to Robert Stack, he was the only actor to work with both Deanna Durbin and Beavis & Butthead!
And to make it even better, Bauchau was a member of New York’s earliest auteurist clique, with Andrew Sarris and Eugene Archer. Archer also makes an unbilled appearance in “La Collectionneuse,” which Bauchau co-wrote.
