- Jobert was born in 1940 in Algeria. She studied drama and fine art in
Paris, made her acting debut on the stage in 1963 and secured her first
film role in Louis Malle's
The Thief of Paris (1967) in 1966. Her big break
came with her casting as "Elisabeth" in
Jean-Luc Godard's
Masculine Feminine (1966),
in which she performed alongside
Brigitte Bardot and
Jean-Pierre Léaud, and other high
profile roles in star-studded casts followed. She gave a particularly
powerful performance in Maurice Pialat's
1971 production,
We Won't Grow Old Together (1972).
Roles became rarer in the 1980s and Jobert increased her television and
radio work by way of compensation.- IMDb Mini Biography By: John Jameson
