Vincent Lindon was born on July 15, 1959 in Boulogne-sur-Seine. He had no childhood dream of conquering cinematic Olympus. The boy was athletic and fond of boxing. But the father and mother insisted that this hobby be abandoned. Numerous injuries frightened parents.
Vincent came to the set completely by accident, and not at all as an actor, but only as an assistant costume designer. But touching the mysterious world of cinema, he immediately realized what he wants to devote his life.
At the age of twenty, Vincent Lyndon left for the United States, where he began to take acting classes in New York and Boston, studied music, and then returned to his homeland, France. He enrolled at Cours Florent School and made his first screen appearance in 1983.
At first, these were small, episodic roles, but with very good directors and famous actors. In the film Our Story, Bertrand Blier Vincent worked with Alain Delon, Natalie Bai, Jean-Pierre Darrusin, Gerard Darmont. The advantage in the development of his career was that he was fluent in English.
The main roles in such films as “Man in Love” by Diana Curie, “The Last Summer in Tangier” by Alexander Arkady with Thierry Lermitt and Valeria Golino in the lead roles brought Vincent deserved popularity. But the main stepping stone in the big cinema was for Vincent in 1988 the role of a musician in the film “Student” directed by Claude Pinoto. Their duet with Sofia Marceau brought him fame and made him one of the favorite actors of French cinema. In 1989 he received the Jean Gabin Prize.
In 1992, the film “Crisis” directed by Colin Cerot was released, which brought Lyndon the Golden Palm Branch of the Cannes Film Festival as the best actor of the year. Later, Sero offered Vincent two more works in the films “Beautiful Green” (1996) and “Chaos” (2001).
In 1997, the film "Fred" was released on the screen - one of the iconic works for the actor, where he, paired with Clotilda Kuro, played the role of a loser with a completely upset life.
Then in the fate of the actor begins a very active period with very diverse roles. Criminal stories are interspersed with melodramatic comedies, dramas. In "Favourite Mother-in-law,"
"Mustache" , "Little Business", "Those Who Stay" his partners and partners were the bright stars of French cinema - Catherine Deneuve, Matilda Senier, Roshdie Zem, François Berlean, Zabu Brightman, Mathieu Amalric and Emmanuel Deveaux.
In 1993, the actor met Sandrine Kiberlain, with whom they went hand in hand for many years, gave birth to a child, played in 4 joint films, the most famous of which were “Seventh Heaven” (1997) and “Oh, those daughters” (2007). Their rupture greatly upset the French public.
Currently, Vincent Lyndon is filming all the same much, plays all the same well, continuing to embody funny and sad images. /
