Actress. Writer. Singer/songwriter. Director. A new Renaissance woman with a fascinating career.
Discovered at the age of 14 by Jean-Luc Godard, Julie Delpy has always been more than an exquisite face. Yes, she looks - as Ethan Hawke’s character put it in Before Sunrise - like ‘a Botticelli angel’. But not every ethereal French screen goddess opts to play a Nazi, as Delpy did in Europa Europa; or a girl in the throes of an incestuous relationship with her father, as in Voyager; or a rotoscoped animation of herself, as in Waking Life. Even in Kryzstof Kieslowski’s legendary Three Colours trilogy, Delpy was the White witch, a deliciously nasty foil for Juliette Binoche and Irene Jacob’s limpid heroines. She’s always had an edge. Little wonder, then, that her directorial debut, Two Days in Paris, is such a smart, mischievous caper - the work of a sharp intellect and a wicked sense of humour. A genuine star talks us through a life in the spotlight.
