Too feminine to play a macho character, too soft, so Pierre naturally was one of his best roles.

Externally, he was somewhat similar to a great Soviet actor Donatas Banionis, so if you happen to come across any of his films, take a look. Donatas, in turn, would remind you of great Zbigniew Cybulski, whom you undoubtedly remember from Wajda's Ashes and Diamonds... don't take that progression toooooo seriously, but I think it is true.
