Adieu Jean-Claude

Ajc

French actor Jean-Claude Brialy, an emblematic figure of the New Wave film movement, has died in his Paris home Wednesday following a long battle with cancer. He was 74.He was a familiar face in films by legendary French directors including Claude Chabrol, Francois Truffaut and Jean-Luc Godard, who spearheaded the avant-garde New Wave movement in the late 1950s. He began his career as a stage actor. His appearance in the title role of the 1958 Chabrol film "Le beau Serge" ("Handsome Serge") catapulted him to fame.Known for his charm and dashing dark good looks, Brialy starred in Eric Rohmer's 1969 "Le Genou de Claire" (Claire's Knee) and "Le Phantom de la liberte" ("The Phantom of Liberty") by Spanish director Luis Bunuel in 1974. He acted well into his seventies, featuring in the 2005 comedy "Quartier VIP" ("VIP Neighborhood.")
