Marie Rivière

Actress · Writer
69 years (Dec 22, 1956)Montreuil, Seine [now Seine-Saint-Denis], France
Marie Rivière is, by now, a veteran French actress who has spent far more time working than being talked about. The early stretch of the career is the part least seen today. Romance keeps coming back on the credit list. The filmography runs to some 38 credits between film and television. The film 'My Donkey, My Lover & I' accounts for more of the public profile than anything else does. She appears in 'Just the Two of Us' too.

Marie Rivière (born 22 December 1956) is a French actress and filmmaker. She is known for her collaborations with director Éric Rohmer.

From a working-class background, Marie Rivière grew up on a housing estate/project in Montreuil before working as a schoolteacher, then as a shop assistant. At 21, having seen L'Amour l'après-midi, she sent a letter and photo to Éric Rohmer. He saw her in his office at Les films du losange, in the presence of Arielle Dombasle and Thierry Lhermitte, and offered her a small role in Perceval le Gallois. Two years later she appeared in Rohmer's The Aviator's Wife, the first in the Comédies et Proverbes series. The Green Ray, in which she played the fragile dreamer Delphine, was a critical and popular success, and won the Golden Lion at Venice. In 1998 she appeared again for Rohmer in Conte d'automne (Autumn Tale), alongside another Rohmer muse, Béatrice Romand.

She co-directed her first film in 1993, with Marc Rivière, La Règle du Silence.
