The talented, bright French actress Julie Depardieu for a long time was associated with the audience exclusively with the name of her father - the famous actor Gerard Depardieu. It took a long time until the audience finally realized - Julie is an independent artist who does not bask in the shadow of her father's glory and builds her brilliant creative career solely by her own work.
Unhappy childhood in a star family
Julie Depardieu, whose photo can be seen in this article, was born in the star family of actors Gerard and Elizabeth Depardieu. The date of birth of the actress is June 18, 1973.
The family seemed quite prosperous, even happy. However, one could hardly call the Depardieu hearth a model of family harmony and comfort. According to Julie, the father avoided the company of his own children and his wife, he could leave them alone, for example, at Christmas, and leave in an unknown direction.
On holidays, he did not even open gifts, in every possible way demonstrating neglect to his relatives. The complexity of children's relationships with the father contributed to the formation in the daughter's mind of an extremely negative image of the closest person.
Movie debut
Nevertheless, Julie's film debut took place in the film, where Gerard played a major role. But she still denies her father's involvement in the fact that acting has become her profession. So, in fact, after graduating from school, Julie Depardieu entered the university and began to seriously study philosophy. However, the acquaintances in the acting environment that ensued during the filming of "Colonel Shaber" could no longer disappear from her life forever. Soon she received a new proposal from Jose Diane - to play in a film called "The Machine." He was followed by the series "Count of Monte Cristo", where again Julie's partner on the set was the unloved father.
Julie Depardieu, whose biography reveals far from cloudless pictures of childhood, does not hide her dislike and even contempt for her father. She never could forgive him a family filled with negativity and emotions, openly declaring this in an interview. Moreover, she is very skeptical of various kinds of acting dynasties and claims that she became an actress only because she suddenly liked to play.
The beginning of professional acting
In order to seriously engage in acting, the young woman left her studies at the university and began to actively star in all the films in which she was called. Not using her father’s patronage, she resolutely overcame all obstacles and repeatedly received prestigious film awards for her work. According to her, it did not occur to her for a long time to call herself an actress, this only happened a few years after the start of serious work in the cinema.
Julie's full-fledged debut as a front-line actress took place in 1998 in the movie Midnight Exam. It was in this film that the deep talent of the novice artist was revealed. The delicate psychological work that she and the director did was appreciated by critics. After this role, Julie Depardieu's career went uphill, and her name became less and less associated with the star father.
Musical experience
Julie is a creative, constantly seeking nature. She does not stop there, constantly exploring new, unexplored opportunities for artistic activity. So, 1998 for her was not only a year of breakthrough in great French cinema, but also an attempt to prove herself in vocal terms. Julie acted as a singer, recording a musical record in a duet with famous singer Mark Lavoine. And this experience has been very successful. Julie once again confirmed to the world her exceptional talent.
The next successful work of Julie Depardieu in the cinema was the work in the film "Love Me". A series of television projects followed, as well as a new meeting on the set with the fateful director José Diane. In her film called Zayed, Julie played along with her sibling.
