I fell in love with Jeanne Moreau in 1965 after I saw her in "Viva Maria!". She was a lovely girl.

I liked her in DIARY OF A CHAMBERMAID and ELEVATOR TO THE GALLOWS.

Great actress. Sad loss. I’m getting old.

I saw her in several early ones. I believe she was in THE TRAIN with Burt Lancaster. Then I saw her and Brigitte in the English dubbed VIVA MARIA! Then in MONTE WALSH with Lee Marvin.
Even as she aged she was wonderful.

Did she live on an island? Because you know what that would mean.

I have seen her in lots of things. She was attractive, but not in an obvious way. I liked her in the films she did with Welles (The Trial, Chimes at Midnight, The Immortal Story) as well as Viva Maria!, The Train, Monte Walsh and The Bride Wore Black. Really one of the great actresses of her day.

I have seen her in 2 films. The Great Catherine and Monte Walsh. I only remember her role in the later. (I barely remember ‘Catherine’ )

I believe she performed it at least as well as Isabella Rossellini did in the made for TV remake. I liked both Monte Walsh movies for different reasons.

I’m only vaguely familiar with Mademoiselle Moreau. Was she more a Catherine Deneuve type or closer Juliette Binoche?

We spent one year working in computers for NCR in LA in 1969/70 and went to one Hollywood opening, Jean Renoir’s “The Little Theatre of Jean Renoir.” Totally strange French opera with one of the four segments about a woman in love with her electric floor polisher. But Jeanne Moreau sang between two of the parts and then, to our shock, she and Jean Renoir got up on stage from the audience and gave short speeches. She was always beautiful.

Elevator to the Gallows is a great thriller (directed by Malle with music by Miles Davis)
