Jean-Louis Trintignant Facts
Raised in and around automobile racing, he was the natural choice of director Claude Lelouch for the role of a race car driver in A Man and a Woman (1966).
His acting career was interrupted for several years by military service in Algiers.
His actress/daughter, Marie Trintignant, who was married at the time to director/actor Samuel Benchetrit, was fatally beaten in a Lithuanian hotel in 2003 by her jealous boyfriend, Bertrand Cantat, the lead rock singer and guitarist of the group, Noir Désir. Apparently, he became outraged when she received a telephone call from her husband. She suffered a cerebral edema as a result of her skull fractures and died four days after the incident. In 2004, Cantat was sentenced to eight years in prison for manslaughter, which was initially appealed by Marie's family, who wished for a heavier sentence. They later canceled their appeal and the judgment was final.
