Elga Andersen (Elga Andersen), an actress who created an image of a “seductive blonde”, who played in many French, German and American films, was born on February 2, 1935 in Dortmund (North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany). World War II left marks on the girl’s soul, taking her father’s life with her.
After graduating from school, Elga, who was fond of English and French, decided to become a translator and for this purpose in 1953 went to Paris. But Paris is a world of art, fashion and bohemia, and soon the girl finds herself in a sweet “captivity” in this world.
Her film debut took place in 1957, when Elga successfully played the role of Helen in Andre Junnebel’s film Gymnasists. Critics, directors and viewers could only admire the appearance and acting talent of the young film star and as a result, Elga was showered with offers to star in new films and for the covers of French fashion magazines. Within a short time, she appeared in films:
"Hello, sadness" (directed by Otto Primenger, 1958)
"Elevator on the scaffold" (directed by Louis Malle, 1957), Detained pending trial (directed by Nanni Loy, 1971). She was also invited by German directors, and she starred in the films Ist Mama nicht fabelhaft? (1958, directed by Petr Beweiss), So ein Millionär hat's schwer (1958, directed by Ghez von Gsiffre) and Solang' die Sterne glüh'n (1958). And the painting by Henry Chaplin “Sex Power”, in which Elga played in a duet with
Jane Birkin It brought her scandalous popularity.
Her last work was a film.
