Marie Dubois born Claudine Lucie Pauline Huzé on 12 January 1937 and died on 15 October 2014 was a Parisian-born French actress. Her film debut was in 1959, first gaining notice the next year as Léna in Shoot the Piano Player. She then played mainly supporting roles. In the 1960s she appeared in New Wave films such as Jules and Jim and The Thief of Paris, thrillers like Hot Line, and comedies like La Ronde, La Grande Vadrouille, and Monte Carlo or Bust. These are my top 10 movies for Marie Dubois.

Léon returns to Alice’s home but it is no anymore the same person; she is blonde and bears no resemblance to the woman the day before! One is sensual and welcoming, the other, mysterious and independent. Alice in Verbland! No drama, no action, a so “seventies” nonchalance… and the art of the conversation as the main subject of a delicious film, worn by remarkable actors (Marie Dubois, Jean-Luc Bideau, and Jacques Denis).
