Actor

Jean-Pierre Bacri is a French actor, screenwriter and playwright, born May 24, 1951 in Bou Ismaïl (formerly Castiglione) in Algeria and died January 18, 2021 in Paris 6th. In 2005, he sponsored the Devoirs de Mémoires collective. Jean-Pierre Sauveur Bacri was born in Algeria into a Sephardic Jewish family from Algeria. When Algeria gained independence in 1962, the family arrived in Cannes. At 23, he left his position at Société Générale, went to Paris, and trained as an actor at the Simon course and the Jean Périmony course, while writing plays, including Le Doux Visage De L'Amour for which he received the Fondation de la vocation prize in 1979. The same year, he played his first role in the cinema in Le Toubib. His performance as a pimp in Le Grand Pardon by Alexandre Arcady in 1982 made him known to the public. He then multiplied supporting roles, with several directors: Diane Kurys, Claude Lelouch, Claude Pinoteau, Luc Besson, Jean-Michel Ribes, Tony Gatlif, Gérard Krawczyk, Jean-Pierre Mocky, Pierre Tchernia, Jean-Marie Poiré, Yves Boisset and Yves Robert. In 1986, his name began to appear at the top of the bill: for Mort Un Dimanche De Pluie by Joël Santoni, then L'Été En Pente Douce by Gérard Krawczyk in 1987. He played the same year in the play L'Anniversaire, directed by Jean-Michel Ribes, alongside his future colleague and companion Agnès Jaoui.
