  • Deneuve unveils `Dangerous' side with `wicked' role By Ivor Davis The New York Times Syndicate March 10 2004 This is not, perhaps, the easiest time for a Frenchwoman, especially one officially designated as the living embodiment of France, to visit America. But the elegant, sophisticated Catherine Deneuve seems to be coping. As cool, as blond and as unlined as ever, the 60-year-old Parisienne -- whose face is the model for Marianne, the symbol of the French Republic on the country's coins and stamps -- dismisses the current coolness between the two nations with all the sang froid that one would expect from an icon of European cinema. "I think it's easier to be a French person here in America today," she says, "than to be an American today in other parts of the world." Nonetheless, she predicts that the current chill in Franco-American relations will be only temporary. "It was a very long marriage between America and France," she says, "and like a very long marriage there can be, you know, sort of moments. Now it's a tough moment, but it's only a moment." Deneuve is back in the United States to promote her first-ever foray into American television, the mini-series "Dangerous Liaisons," a remake of the classic French tale of lust, deception and revenge that will air at 7 p.m. on the Women's Entertainment network on Monday and Tuesday. This version is updated to the 1960s, with the scene shifting between the boulevards of Paris and the sun-drenched French Riviera. Deneuve plays the conniving Madame de Merteuil, played on screen by Glenn Close in "Dangerous Liaisons" (1988) and by Annette Bening in "Valmont" (1989). She and the amoral Valmont (Rupert Everett) enter into a pact to seduce and abandon her former lover's new fiance, the youthful Cecile (Leelee Sobieski) -- the prize for Valmont's efforts to be Madame herself, the only woman who has ever resisted his charms. The scheme goes awry, however, when Valmont becomes enamored of the married, staunchly faithful Marie Torvel (Nastassja Kinski). International appeal The mini-series was filmed in French and English, to allow it to be aired in France and also in England, the United States and other English-speaking countries. That made the casting of Deneuve an obvious choice, as she's one of the few European actresses with popular appeal and artistic credibility both at home and abroad. For her own part, Deneuve says with a laugh, she relished the chance to play so reprehensible a character. "Although she is very wicked, and I don't think I've ever played someone as wicked as this character, she is also a woman who has been living her whole life for love," she says. "And it was an occasion to play a great amoureuse -- I don't know how you say that in English!" Deneuve herself has made love a guiding light in her life. Daughter of the actors Maurice Dorleac and Renee Deneuve, she was discovered -- like so many other French beauties -- by director Roger Vadim, who cast her in her first major film -- "Vice et la Vertu" (1962). He was also the father of her first child, son Christian, born in 1963. She went on to marry the English photographer David Bailey in 1965, before divorcing him in 1972 and, later that same year, having daughter Chiara, whose father was the Italian screen legend Marcello Mastroianni. Along the way she managed to become an embodiment of beauty, romance and sexual desirability for a generation of European filmgoers. The romantic musical "The Umbrellas of Cherbourg" (1963) hinted at sexuality, Roman Polanski's "Repulsion" (1965) gave more than a hint, and then Luis Bunuel's masterpiece "Belle de Jour" (1967) made Deneuve an icon for her strong, seductive performance as a straight-laced, middle-class housewife who moonlights as a prostitute. Deneuve did venture to Hollywood -- and into the English language -- for "April Fools" (1969) and "Hustle" (1975), respectively co-starring Jack Lemmon and Burt Reynolds. But her most popular, most influential films have been European-made, among them her performances as a stage actress in Nazi-occupied Paris in Francois Truffaut's "The Last Metro" (1980) and as a Frenchwoman in 1950s Vietnam in "Indochine" (1992), for which she received her first Oscar nomination as best actress. Perfect timing Deneuve attributes her longevity as an actress primarily to luck. "I would never talk about surviving," she says in still-heavily-accented English. "I was very lucky to do, very young, very important films that were successful in France. I think living is surviving and making films is living. At least for me." She does admit, however, that sustaining a career in middle age may be easier in France than in the United States, as Isabelle Huppert, Jeanne Moreau and Simone Signoret also demonstrate. "I'm sure it's less hard to grow old in Europe than in America," Deneuve says. "We love women more than beauty in Europe. "But I think maybe there may be sort of a reverse these past few years," she adds. "I remember, before Jane Fonda did `Julia' [1977], actresses were already complaining that it was difficult, after 35 in America, to be in a story where you would have an interesting life on-screen. But it seems to have changed -- I have the impression that there are a lot of films with women in the major parts in American films recently. "But it is still easier in Europe." Which no doubt partly explains why Deneuve doesn't work more often in the U.S. "I suppose, a long time ago, there used to be European actresses coming to America in co-productions," she says. "This is not the case so much anymore, and the accent will always be a problem, unless you can justify the fact that you have an actress with an accent." Better choices Besides, she adds, "I found that what I've been offered in English in American films was not as interesting as what I was offered in French." Those offers continue to come, however, in large part because at 60 she remains one of the world's most beautiful women. "Well, you know, screen is not life," Deneuve says. "Screen is a sort of exaltation, a little miracle every day for actors and actresses. Of course I take good care of myself and I try my best to stay in shape, but I'm not really fighting against something I don't think it's necessary to fight. I try to live with what I have, and I don't want to live with what I had." ___________ Hugs, Janice ---------------------------------- (-)> *peep* (-)> *peep* (-)> *muckmouth*

  • January 22, 2005 The bills are eye-popping: =80606 ($1109) for hyacinths and lilies from a Paris florist; quick trips to New York on Concorde for =806153 ($11,260); a Christmas present of bed linen, just =801912 ($3499) from a Paris store; tens of thousands of euros for Tiffany lamps, art deco lacquer panels and matching furniture for her Latin Quarter flat; an exotic tree flown in from Lebanon to adorn the garden of her country house in Normandy. Eyebrows are being raised across France as salacious details about the icon of French cinema, Catherine Deneuve, are dragged into the open as investigators probe a disgraced Algerian tycoon. But for many people, the press revelations are more painful than shocking. The disclosures have ravaged the image of an actress revered as much for her classic elegance, sophistication and intelligence as for her blonde beauty. In a career spanning four decades and hundreds of films, Deneuve, 61, is feted for the bittersweet romance The Umbrellas of Cherbourg; for Belle de Jour the sado-masochistic tale of a callgirl; for The Last Metro, which depicted of relationships in occupied Paris in World War II; and for the Oscar-nominated Indochine. Her roles were acclaimed for depth, daring and sensitivity. Her cool beauty not only enslaved innumerable men, it also became a symbol of French womanhood. In the 1980s, her face was modelled for a bust of Marianne, the national emblem, which can be seen in town halls up and down the country. The past week, though, has seen the Deneuve touchstone tragically lose its power. The great lady of French cinema, so stylish, understated and otherworldly, is suddenly viewed as shallow and grasping. The cause of the distress is Deneuve's spendthrift lifestyle - something that she has always admitted. "I don't give a darn about money," she told the magazine Egoiste. "It comes in through one door, goes out through another. Who cares? "If I see a very beautiful object, even it is ruinously expensive and I really can't afford it, well, I completely set aside the notion of value of money, I go in and buy it. "My apartment is filled with objects which I've bought like that but which I shouldn't have." Gerard Depardieu, France's most popular actor, has said: "Her image is of being serene, organised. But I've never seen anyone so untidy, so fickle when it comes to money, business." In one case, Deneuve was on an Air France flight from Bangkok to Paris which stopped for refuelling in Copenhagen. Deneuve, driven by an urge for salmon, insisted on buying fresh fish in town, even though she had to miss the flight and take the next plane. Such whims are, of course, all part-and-parcel of movie-star lifestyles. In Deneuve's case, though, the cost became crippling after her career went into decline. Her last big hit was three years ago, in the campy musical 8 Women, for which she received =80457,000 ($836,383), plus 9 per cent of the box-office take. Since then, Deneuve has fallen on the hard ground of TV movies, for which she has been lavishly rewarded - she was paid =80610,000 ($1.123 million) for Les Liaisons Dangereuses, a costume drama about seduction and infidelity - but which have flopped. Her other big income source has been advertising. In the 1980s, Deneuve pitched for Chanel perfume on American television. The following decade, Deneuve signed deals worth a US$1 million a year as the face of Chanel's rival, Saint Laurent. In this halcyon time, the couturier was contract-bound to pay "all expenses including, but not limited to, the costs of travel, accommodation, meals" as well as the costs of a friend or escort accompanied by the actress and a chauffeured limousine. Saint-Laurent also had to pay around 20,000 French francs ($4950 in today's money) a day to meet the star's "personal requirements". That was followed, from 2001-2003, as the "ambassador of charm" for the French cosmetics firm L'Oreal, at some €1.2 million a year. Since then, though, Deneuve's value in the ad market has plummeted along with her box-office rating. According to the daily Le Parisien, Deneuve's only ad contract now is with American sunglass maker Viva, worth =80200,000 ($366,032) a year. Deneuve found herself caught between massive bills and a sharply falling income. She became tempted into making paid appearances at parties, in which stars are hired to add a touch of glamour. This demeaning path has led to her undoing. It began, the press says, in June 1997, with an appearance with Gina Lollobrigida at a gala for Gilberto Scarpa, a Brazilian Coca-Cola bottler. In 2000, Deneuve attended the opening of a Las Vegas casino, hardly a location in line with her suave image. The following year, things were even worse: a horsejumping competition in Lisbon, sponsored by Samsung, and the opening of a cinema complex in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, for =8060,000 ($109809) a pop. In 2002, she scraped the bottom of the barrel, making appearances for a glamour-crazed Algerian millionaire, Rafik Khalifa. In March that year, she received =8045,700 ($83,638) for being flown to Algiers in a private jet to attend a match between Khalifa's football team, Olympic Marseille, and the Algerian national team. The pictures show the pair with gritted smiles, with Deneuve plainly hating the moment. Even so, six months later, Deneuve attended the launch of Khalifa's TV channel in Cannes, alongside her friend Depardieu, as well as Sting and Naomi Campbell. Depardieu received a =8030,000 ($54,904) payoff from the Khalifa for attending the bash, according to the daily Le Monde, while Deneuve picked up €40,000 ($73206), which was reportedly handed over in cash in a toilet. These figures come from testimony that Deneuve has been forced to give to a Paris examining magistrate, probing the collapse of Khalifa's nebulous business empire in France. Khalifa, 38, is the son of an Algerian minister and is reputedly closely connected with the ruling military, who control the country's oil and gas wealth. According to legal sources, Deneuve will be forced to pay what she owes to the tax authorities, but will not be prosecuted for tax avoidance. But, for her public - for whom fiscal evasion is in many cases a favoured pastime - this is negligible. What is far more damaging, in their view, is the way Deneuve surrendered her integrity. She traded her regal status for a brown envelope from a businessman desperate to get his picture in the celebrity press. "The perfume of mystery turned stale, the image cracked before our eyes," Le Monde said. "Before, she was distant and adorable. We suddenly discovered someone who is self-seeking, grasping."

Denueve, the 61-year-old doyenne of French cinema, spent nearly five hours on Wednesday being interrogated by a special Paris police unit investigating embezzlement claims against the fugitive businessman, Abdelmounene Rafik Khalifa, officers said. She was notably asked at length about 50,000 euro ($86,900) in cash she received from Khalifa in 2003 to promote the launch of his shortlived Khalifa TV satellite channel based in Paris, they said. Depardieu, the 56-year-old star of Green Card and more than 100 other films, was likely to be questioned yesterday, police added. The famous actor was seen at several receptions thrown by Khalifa, who liked to surround himself with jetsetters and celebrities. Sting, Naomi Campbell, Bono, Melanie Griffiths and Pamela Anderson were among guests spotted at a September 2002 bash in his French Riviera villa launching Khalifa TV, which was also attended by Depardieu and Deneuve. Depardieu has fiercely defended Khalifa from accusations that the businessman had raised his money from dealings with Algeria's powerful army generals who are believed to tap their country's oil wealth. In September 2002, an angry Depardieu accused one politician levelling the charges, Greens MP and former French presidential candidate Noel Mamere, of being "racist". Khalifa, the 38-year-old son of a former Algerian minister, saw his group of companies collapse in 2003 under debts and claims of embezzlement. He never explained the source of the estimated one billion euro ($1.7 billion) that had let him build an empire that included an airline, catering, car hire, graphic design, construction, a bank and two television channels, one each in London and in Paris, from nothing seven years ago. The group started unravelling in February 2002, when three Khalifa Bank managers were arrested at Algiers airport with two million euro ($3.5 million) in undeclared cash stuffed into suitcases. Days later Algerian authorities placed the bank under the control of state auditors. France - where Khalifa did much of his business - soon opened a preliminary criminal investigation into suspected money laundering. Last September, French police questioned the liquidator of Khalifa Bank, Moncef Badsi, who claimed there were financial links between the shady dealings by the bank in Algeria "and spending made by the heads of the group in France," a source close to the investigation said. Interpol, acting at the request of the Algerian government, issued an international arrest warrant for Khalifa in August 2003, warning he "may be dangerous". He is believed to be living in Britain, which has no extradition treaty with Algeria.

Nicole Kidman meets her fans at the Sydney premiere of Cold Mountain last December. Photo: Dan Peled Nicole Kidman is much-admired but little loved, writes Adam Sternbergh. You could argue that marrying Tom Cruise was the best career move Nicole Kidman made, but that would be just plain wrong. It was the second-best move. Divorcing Tom Cruise was her best move, because it meant that, suddenly, she had the one ingredient for stardom she'd lacked: a cohesive story line. Here's the official narrative: She rose, phoenix-like, from the ash heap of her marriage to emerge as a strong, resilient, independent woman. She didn't shy from the spotlight or wilt into anonymity. Rather, armed only with a huge personal fortune and the most powerful PR machine in entertainment, she gamely continued to accept starring roles in high-profile films. Only in Hollywood could this story be spun as a tale of plucky survival. But the narrative worked: Kidman evolved, in the public's mind, from lissom arm-candy to bona fide silver-screen star. Her divorce gave Kidman an emotional hook: fans might have admired her before, but now they could feel for her. As a result, she has the ideal career, at least on paper. She's one of the two or three biggest female movie stars in the world. She's tackled an impressive array of roles, or at least of accents: a southern belle in Cold Mountain; a brusque English mother in The Others; a down-at-the-heels American janitor in The Human Stain. She's won an Oscar. She alternates between award-courting epics (The Hours, The Human Stain) and controversy-courting art films (Eyes Wide Shut, Dogville). She's back on US screens in Birth, a controversial film from Sexy Beast director Jonathan Glazer, in which Kidman plays a woman who becomes convinced her dead husband has been reincarnated as a 10-year-old boy. In fact, her superstar sainthood is now such an article of faith that when Lauren Bacall took issue with her characterisation as a "legend", the press was aghast. Hadn't Kidman been featured as one of Vanity Fair's "Legends of Hollywood"? Right next to Catherine Deneuve! Just who does this Bacall woman think she is? But is Bacall so far off? Let's look more closely at Kidman's status. She's a movie star, but one whose movies have gone largely unloved. She's never had that one defining hit: no Breakfast at Tiffany's, no Pretty Woman. Her best performances, in To Die For and The Hours, might be described as admirably brittle. Moulin Rouge!, a tsunami of karaoked pop songs, was hardly borne aloft by Kidman's charms. The Others, a spooky success, was, in essence, an extremely well-art-directed episode of Scooby-Doo. And Stepford Wives arrived stillborn. Perhaps audiences felt that, in watching Kidman play a feisty wife who subjugates herself robotically to her husband, they'd already seen this story played out in the tabloids, with better acting. Kidman always been dogged by the charge that she comes off as distant and icy - so much so that nearly every profile of her strains to upend this impression, remarking on her fiery red curls (since straightened and blanched) and her Australian-bred lust for life. "Bring it on! Consume me! Intoxicate me!" read her quotes on another Vanity Fair cover, as she affected her rapacious, life-gobbling grin. But somehow this pose never takes. And for all her celebrated beauty, she's got to be the least carnal movie star around. It's not for lack of trying: she stripped naked onstage for The Blue Room, and she hasn't been shy about doffing clothes in recent films, including Birth. Offscreen, she's been linked to a series of increasingly improbable beaus: Q-Tip, Tobey Maguire, Lenny Kravitz. Yet she can't spark a sexual charge. Compare her to, say, Angelina Jolie, who even makes wearing an eye patch seem lascivious. This is where Kidman's story line - the one written after her split from Cruise - may be hurting her as much as it helps. Movie stars are like Greek gods. As they ascend, they come to represent one specific quality: Tom Hanks is the God of Affability; Meg Ryan the Goddess of Button-Cuteness. Now Kidman's taken her place in this pantheon: She's the Goddess of Will. It's a role that inspires admiration but not much affection. Just think back to Julia Roberts's Oscar win: a hearty human-interest story that everyone could cheer. Kidman's Oscar win felt earned but inevitable, like someone battering at a door until it gives. If anything, the stringent discipline of Kidman's ascent has been both laudable and off-putting, and even harrowing to watch. Greek goddesses lived and breathed in the imagination, but existed in the world as statues, idealised but cold. Kidman may yet rise to the status of full-blooded legend. So far, though, she's been simply statuesque. New York Magazine From Sunny Oz, Rick :) Proud Keeper of the talented & beautiful Halle Berry.

I'm not a big fan of Kidman either, but I just want to point out that in the 2 films this writers brings up as "beloved" the movie stars play prostitutes. I've never gotten all the hooo la la about Breakfast at Tiffany's myself. And Audrey Hepburn was a defined star well before that role. "Roman Holiday" anyone? And frankly, Kidman is an extremely talented actress-- far more so than Julia Roberts. This writer is a sexist idiot. Next?

Star turn ... Kidman in a still from the hanel ad that hits screens this weekend. Luhrmann, who directed Kidman in the Oscar-nominated Moulin Rouge, likens her to Marilyn Monroe and French star Catherine Deneuve. "She's the most appropriate next icon ... she's the ultimate modern woman, both sophisticated and yet free," he says in TV documentary Chanel No5 The Film, a 30-minute short about the making of reportedly the world's most expensive commercial. Directed by Luhrmann, the commercial was shot at Fox Studios last December and involved 250 extras, stunts and $42 million worth of jewels, with Kidman wearing one-off couture outfits designed by Karl Lagerfeld exclusively for the campaign. In the reportedly $14 million commercial, which resembles the tragic love story Moulin Rouge, Kidman is a famous star who escapes the paparazzi by jumping into a taxi. Seated in the taxi is a humble artist (Brazilian actor Rodrigo Santoro) who has no idea who she is. The two go back to his rooftop apartment where they spend "four or five perfect romantic days together". But soon she must choose between selfish love and responsibility - confidently facing the paparazzi in a black Chanel couture dress with a diamond pendant dangling across her exposed back bearing the logo of the world famous perfume, gazing wistfully back at her lover. The commercial will premiere on Sunday. News Limited newspapers From Sunny Oz, Rick :) Proud Keeper of the talented & beautiful Halle Berry.

  • Breathtakingly beautiful blond actress who for many years was France's top female screen star. Her icy manner was skillfully exploited by directors Roman Polanski (in 1965's Repulsion and Luis Buñuel (in 1967's Belle de Jour and 1970's Tristana, among others. She was equally effective in a pair of François Truffaut films, The Mississippi Mermaid (1968) and The Last Metro (1980). Deneuve also delivers lighter, more accessible performances as well: she was utterly charming, for example, in The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964), the film that brought her international recognition following several years of desultory screen appearances. Still a ravishing beauty, Deneuve has unfortunately limited her U.S. exposure in recent years to TV commercials and occasional films such as The Hunger (1983, in a surprisingly erotic role as a vampire) and Scene of the Crime (1986, a muddled psychological thriller). She earned her first Oscar nomination for Indochine (1992). A free-spirited nonconformist, Deneuve has given birth out of wedlock to children fathered by former lovers Roger Vadim and Marcello Mastroianni. Her sister, Françoise Dorleac, was herself a talented actress whose career was cut short by a tragic car accident in 1967; they costarred in Jacques Demy's The Young Girls of Rochefort (1968).
