My Take
Marina Vlady strikes me as one of European cinema's quietly formidable figures. Born near Paris with Russian roots, she won Best Actress at Cannes in 1963 and was later honored with the Pushkin Medal and France's Ordre des Arts et des Lettres, a span that bridges two cultures few performers ever straddle. I'm especially drawn to her work with Godard in Two or Three Things I Know About Her, where intelligence reads on her face as clearly as emotion. That she also became a writer and sculptor tells me acting was only one room in a much larger creative house. A genuine artist, not just a star.
