BIOGRAPHY

Expand Full Bio

This alluring French lead made her initial US impact with a touching portrayal of Manon Cadoret, the surviving daughter of Gerard Depardieu, in Claude Berri's film of love and revenge, "Manon des sources" (1986), which was adapted from Marcel Pagnol's original story. Beart's career began with a small turn in the French science-fiction film "Tomorrow's Children" (1976). At age 15, she moved to Canada where she worked as an au pair and learned English. Beart moved back to France and began working regularly in both films and TV, returning to features with "L'Enfant Trouve" (1983). Beart made her American film debut with the uneven romantic-comedy "Date With an Angel" (1987) and became the center of attention when she was cast as Marianne, the nude artist model, in Jacques Rivette's controversial, engrossing meditation, "La Belle Noiseuse" (1991). She followed up superbly with "Un Coeur en hiver" (1993), the Claude Sautet story of a love triangle set in the world of classical music and reteamed with the same director for 1995's "Nelly and M. Arnaud". Beart scored an international hit when she was cast opposite Tom Cruise in the female lead in Brian De Palma's big screen version of "Mission Impossible" (1996).
